Himmat Singh's Frustration Kick Causes Last-Ball Run-Out, Forces DPL Super OverPreviousNext

In a dramatic Delhi Premier League match on August 4, New Delhi Tigers captain Himmat Singh accidentally kicked the ball onto the stumps in frustration after a misfield, resulting in a last-ball run-out that tied the game against Outer Delhi Warriors. This unprecedented dismissal forced the tournament's first-ever Super Over, where Outer Delhi Warriors secured their first win of the season. Himmat had earlier scored 61 off 25 balls, while Monu Shukla's 45 off 17 balls and Super Over performance were key to the Warriors' victory.
