This season of the Indian Premier League has been nothing less than a nightmare for Rajasthan Royals batsman Jos Buttler. In the last season of IPL, England’s Jos Buttler had scored one century after another and made all the cricket lovers crazy. But the situation in this edition of IPL is that they have to struggle a lot even to open their account. In the match against Punjab Kings played on Friday, Jos Buttler played 4 balls and kept walking towards the pavilion without scoring any runs.
Butler made this embarrassing record
This has become a matter of concern because Rajasthan Royals team batsman Jos Buttler has not been able to even open his account in the last 3 matches. On the other hand, if we talk about the last season, then in that season, 4 charismatic centuries came out of Butler’s bat. Jos Buttler was the highest run-scorer in the tournament that year and won the Orange Cap.
But it is worth noting that during the Indian Premier League 2023, Jos Buttler has played 5 such innings in which he could not even open his account. In this edition of IPL, where on the one hand Yashasvi Jaiswal’s excellent form has given Rajasthan Royals a big advantage, on the other hand the poor batting of Jos Buttler has cost the team a lot.
Jos Buttler, who has been silent with the bat this season, has registered an unwanted record to his name. Jos Buttler has now become the first batsman in IPL history to be dismissed for five ducks in a season. Earlier, Shikhar Dhawan and Herschelle Gibbs were dismissed 4-4 times in a season.
