In Sunrisers Hyderabad’s IPL 2026 Match 21 vs Rajasthan Royals, bowler Praful Hinge had a great debut. Vaibhav Sooryavanshi was dismissed for a golden duck by the Vidarbha right-arm pacer. Even though the festivities were just getting started, the pace struck again, winning Dhruv Jurel a silver duck this time.
As if that weren’t enough, RR were left hanging in the first over itself when Lhuan-dre Pretorius, who was also making his debut, lost to debutante Hinge for another silver duck. The player, who was born in Nagpur, made Indian Premier League history by being the first bowler to capture three wickets in the opening over of an innings.
