    "editor1": "Indian Premier League: Former India wicketkeeper-batter Deep Dasgupta believes Rashid Khan rediscovered his trademark attacking rhythm and bowled stump-targeted deliveries during the Gujarat Titans\u2019 emphatic 77-run victory over Rajasthan Royals in the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2026.<p>Rashid produced a decisive spell of 4-33 at Sawai Mansingh Stadium on Saturday as Gujarat bowled Rajasthan out for 152 in 16.3 overs after posting a commanding 229\/4.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>The Afghanistan leg-spinner triggered Rajasthan\u2019s collapse by dismissing Dhruv Jurel and Donovan Ferreira in quick succession before removing Shubham Dubey and Ravindra Jadeja to finish with four wickets.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Analysing Rashid\u2019s spell, Dasgupta highlighted the spinner\u2019s relentless accuracy and attacking line towards the stumps.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>\u201cLet's see the Shubham Dubey wicket, bowled from over the wicket to a left-hand batter. If he gets the ball to turn from outside off stump or off stump and hits middle or off, that's a really good delivery,\u201d Dasgupta told ESPNCricinfo.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>\u201cIt was the old, vintage Rashid today. If you remember when Rashid was at his best, almost every delivery was hitting the stumps,\u201d he added.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Dasgupta pointed out that three of Rashid\u2019s wickets were bowled dismissals while another came through lbw, underlining how consistently he targeted the stumps throughout the innings.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>\u201cToday, if you look at his four wickets, three bowled, one leg before, and if you look at his beehive, you'll find a very high percentage of those deliveries were hitting the stumps,\u201d he added.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>According to Dasgupta, Rashid becomes particularly dangerous against left-handed batters when he bowls over the wicket and attacks the stumps with his skidding leg-breaks.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>\u201cToday, if you look at his four wickets, three bowled, one leg before, and if you look at his beehive, you'll find a very high percentage of those deliveries were hitting the stumps,\u201d he added.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<h5><b>Also Read: <\/b> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cricketnmore.com\/live-cricket-score\">Live Cricket Score<\/a><\/h5><p>Gujarat\u2019s dominant win was set up earlier by captain Shubman Gill\u2019s composed 84 and Sai Sudharsan\u2019s fluent 55, helping the visitors pile up 229\/4 before Rashid dismantled Rajasthan\u2019s chase.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<h5>Article Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/ians.in\/english-wire\/sports\/1\" rel=\"nofollow\">IANS<\/a><\/h5>",
