[WATCH] IPL 2025: Mitchell Marsh puts Rashid Khan to the sword in 25-run over

Gujarat Titans' (GT) talismanic leg-spinner Rashid Khan went for 25 runs in his first over in the clash against Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad on Thursday, May 22.

Shubman Gill introduced Rashid into the bowling attack in the 12th over, with Mitchell Marsh and Nicholas Pooran at the crease. The Australian all-rounder was batting on 59 off 40 balls, while Pooran had only faced two balls, having scored seven runs.

Rashid started his spell with a half-tracker, and a well-set Marsh had no problem in depositing it over cow corner. The following delivery went for a boundary as he cut a googly powerfully past the cover fielder.

The Afghanistan stalwart altered his length and tossed a delivery on a full length. However, there was no respite for him as Marsh swung his bat fiercely and sent it over long-off. The ball came off the toe-end, but Marsh is nicknamed 'Bison' for a reason. Rashid dropped the next two deliveries short, and both went to the fence on the on-side. Marsh took a single off the last delivery off the over, racing to 84 off just 46 balls.
