Kavya Maran Openly Deems Krunal Pandya’s Bowling Illegal

Kavya Maran’s angry reaction to Krunal Pandya’s bowling has gone viral on the internet. The owner of Sunrisers Hyderabad was seen expressing her frustration with Pandya’s unorthodox bowling action during a recent match between RCB and SRH.

Pandya’s Antics Trouble SRH Batters

Pandya, who managed to take one wicket in the match, bowled several bouncers with his unorthodox action, leaving the batters frustrated. The wicketkeeper, Jitesh Sharma, also struggled to keep behind the wickets.

As Travis Head and Ishan Kishan were batting on the crease during SRH’s first innings, Kavya Maran’s reaction to Krunal Pandya’s delivery was caught on camera. She was seen questioning one of her acquaintances with a visibly frustrated expression, complaining about Pandya’s suspicious action.

Kavya Maran even made a hand gesture to show her frustration at the kind of delivery Krunal Pandya was throwing on the pitch. She was upset with the turnout, but her frustration continued as she went on complaining to the ones behind and around her about the woeful deliveries Pandya was bowling.

RCB Fail To Dominate At Uppal

Despite Pandya’s unorthodox bowling action, SRH managed to put up a massive total of 255 on the board, courtesy of a blitzkrieg innings from Ishan Kishan, as well as contributions from Abhishek Sharma and Heinrich Klaasen. RCB, on the other hand, failed to dominate at Uppal, ending their innings on 200 and handing SRH a massive 55-run win.
