Shardul Thakur: Shardul Thakur gave away the runs of 2 bowlers alone, made the record of getting beaten the most
When Shardul Thakur was not bought by any team in the IPL 2025 auction, many cricket experts were surprised. It was said that Shardul Thakur is a great all-rounder and can be useful for any team, but in the match played on Friday in the Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy, Shardul Thakur proved the decision of all the IPL teams right. In fact, Shardul Thakur was beaten so badly in the match against Kerala that an unwanted record was created. Shardul Thakur conceded 69 runs in 4 overs against Kerala and his team Mumbai lost the match by 43 runs.
