Manish has been often trolled for his slow and anchor innings in the IPL but his batting performance today has taken everyone by surprise. Karnataka had a fairly bad start as they lost opener Manish Pandey (16) and Devdutt Padikkal (21) early in the innings. However, after that Manish Pandey brought about a storm that completely dismantled Railways' bowling attack.
In this fast-paced inning, Manish Pandey completed his fifty in mere 46 balls. Before getting dismissed, Pandey scored 156 runs off 121 balls, with an inspiring strike rate of 121. Lucknow SueprGiants would be overjoyed after this innings by Pandey and would be eagerly waiting for the IPL 2022 season to start.
CENTURY for @im_manishpandey. A blistering innings of 101* off just 83 balls so far with 6 sixes and 9 fours.
