Mohammed Shami Dismissing KL Rahul On The Very First Ball: In the fifth match of IPL 2026, Lucknow Super Giants team is facing Delhi Capitals at their home. After losing the toss and coming to bat first in this match, the entire Lucknow team could score only 141 runs on the scoreboard. In this match played at Ekana Cricket Stadium in Lucknow, this score seemed very small in front of the strong batting line up of Delhi. However, Mohammed Shami did something on the very first ball of Delhi’s innings, which no one had guessed.
KL Rahul was out on the first ball
Delhi team, which came to chase the small target of 142 runs given by Lucknow Super Giants, got a big blow in the form of KL Rahul on the very first ball, which no one expected. Veteran fast bowler Mohammed Shami, playing his first match for Lucknow, showed Delhi’s star opener Rahul the way to the pavilion on his very first ball. The dismissal of a legendary batsman like Rahul without opening the account was no less than a nightmare for Delhi.

Rahul threw the bat
When Mohammed Shami bowled an excellent outswinger, KL Rahul could not control his bat. Seeing the ball slowing down in the air and coming out, Rahul got greedy and tried to hit a strong shot, but the ball took the thick outer edge of his bat and went straight into the hands of Mohsin Khan standing at third man. Shami did the charisma on his very first ball which the Lucknow team needed to save this small score.
