In the match Rabada bowled two no balls and two wides, leaking 52 runs for two wickets in four overs. Lucknow posted 257/5 in 20 overs – the second highest team total in the history of the IPL.
The cricketer-turned-commentator’s comments came when the South African quick overstepped for the second time in the match in the 16th over. The next delivery from Rabada was a wide.
“This is unacceptable behaviour. You’re an international bowler. He’s pushing it all the time, even when he is behind he is just there by an inch,” Doull said live on-air.
Later, Punjab ended up losing the match by 56 runs as captain Shikhar Dhawan admitted that the bowlers conceded extra runs in the match.
“We gave away too many runs. I felt that it (ball) didn’t come on quickly to the bat and it went straight to the fielder (on his dismissal). I felt my strategy to play with the extra bowler backfired.
We missed a spinner today. It’s a learning for me. Livi (Livingstone) and even Sam (Curran) were there, so we couldn’t send him (SRK) ahead,” Dhawan said after the match.
Rabada has picked five wickets at an economy of 10.16 from his first three outings of the IPL 2023 season. He would be hoping to deliver in the match against Chennai Super Kings (CSK) on Sunday.
