“The sky has a lot of stars but this sky is himself a shining star. Akash Madhwal picked up five wickets and gave away only five runs and this five-title-winning team has reached the next stage and will meet the Gujarat Titans in Qualifier 2 in Ahmedabad. What a game it was where Naveen-ul-Haq picked up four wickets and Yash Thakur took three wickets, but a guy did a better job than that, he picked a five-wicket haul. Akash Madhwal did an amazing job. Akash Madhwal without a shadow of doubt is my most valuable player,” Aakash Chopra again stated.
Notably, Naveen-ul-Haq and Yash Thakur returned figures of 4/38 and 3/34 respectively for the Lucknow Super Giants. Akash Madhwal then registered his five-wicket haul that dismantle the opposition.

“What is the specialty of this bowler? He picked up four wickets in the last match where he was hitting the ball on the pads and stumps at the death. He always finishes his ball within the three stumps. Here with the new ball as well. The new ball moves away slightly, so he bowls wicket-taking lines there too.”
He also praised the pacer’s delivery that dismissed Nicholas Pooran. However, Akash Madhwal not only registered the best figures in the ongoing edition of the Indian Premier League but also the best in a playoff game so far in the tournament’s history as well.
“Remember, he dismissed Shubman Gill and Wriddhiman Saha as well. Here he dismissed Prerak Mankad and after that, when he came in the middle, the Nicholas Pooran delivery was extremely beautiful. Forget T20, a guy would get out to that ball in a Test match too. He was absolutely stellar and then came later to bowl the ball in the block hole,” he concluded.
