IPL 2023: 5 best comebacks of 16th edition
The 16th edition of the Indian Premier League witnessed a lot of remarkable comebacks from players who had fallen into oblivion.
4. Ishant Sharma
Ishant Sharma put up a decent show with the ball for Delhi Capitals (DC), this season. Featuring in the league after the 2021 edition, he looked completely disciplined with the ball and contributed 10 wickets to his team in just eight contests at an economy of 8.24, with the best figures of 2/19 against Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) in match 28 at the Arun Jaitley Stadium.
The game against KKR in Delhi marked a remarkable comeback for the veteran. In his next match against Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH), he again played a vital role in DC’s seven-run win with his wicket-taking and miserly spell of 1/18 in three overs. However, his most appreciated bowling display came at the iconic Narendra Modi Stadium.
In the 44th match against Gujarat Titans (GT), he led DC’s bowling unit from the front and kept the Hardik Pandya-led side away from victory in the nail-biting contest. Riding on his extraordinary 2/23 spell, Capitals took the game home by five runs.
