Ayush Mhatre by Chennai Super Kings (CSK) played a brilliant blow against the Royal Bengaluru (RCB) challenges and showed that it could be a rising star in the Cricket T20, gaining praise of the Mumbai Indians (Mi) Star Suryakumar Yadav and the CSK Stephen Fleming coach. With only 17 years, Mhatre already looks like a complete T20 batter. It plays elegant shots throughout the ground and has the necessary power in the modern Cricket.
Mhatre becomes the third youngest player in IPL to score a fifty
On Saturday, he took his game to another level scoring 94 races only 48 balls against RCB. With those entries, he became the third youngest player to reach a fifty story in the history of the Premier League (IPL) of India. Although CSK did not win the game, his performance stood out and showed that the team has a brilliant talent for the future. In a season in which not much has gone well for CSK, Mhatre has been one of the few positive.
He reached the replacement of Captain Ruturaj Gaikwad, who was discarded at the beginning of the season due to an elbow injury. Mhatre made his debut in IPL in the match against the Mumbai Indians, where he scored 32 races of 15 balls. In the next game against Sunrisers Hyderabad, he scored 30 of 19 balls. His 94 races hit reached an attack rate of 195.83 and included nine four and five six.
Although it has only been part of the CSK team for about a month, Mhatre has established himself well and has had a strong impact despite his young age.
