[WATCH] IPL 2025, Final: Kyle Jamieson traps Rajat Patidar plumb in front
Patidar was Jamieson's second wicket of the night.
Kyle Jamieson trapped Rajat Patidar dead in front during the IPL 2025 final between Punjab Kings and Royal Challengers Bengaluru at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad. Patidar had to walk back to the shed after registering 26 off 16.
It was a change-of-pace delivery by the Kiwi pacer which did the trick. The ball dipped slightly on Patidar, who shuffled across in a bid to work the ball on the on-side but missed it. The RCB skipper did not bother reviewing as he was struck right in the line of stumps.
