IPL 2023: Players who won Player of the Match awards in a losing cause
Let’s find out the players who have won the Man of the Match award in losing cause in this edition of the IPL
1. Yashasvi Jaiswal (Rajasthan Royals)
There was no doubt that Rajasthan Royals had picked Yashasvi Jaiswal as an asset for their future. The first-time champions were struggling to find a perfect opener throughout the mid-2010s, and finally, it looks like they have found the right duo. Currently, Jaiswal and Jos Buttler are one of the most lethal openers in this edition of the IPL.
In the 1000th match of the IPL, Jaiswal went berserk as he smashed the MI bowlers all around the Wankhede. The talented youngster went on to score 124 runs from just 62 balls as the fans were left in awe of the batsman. Even the opposition captain, Rohit Sharma, applauded this incredible innings from Jaiswal.
During his best innings, Jaiswal managed to smash 16 boundaries and eight sixes. A strike rate of 200 shows his ability to counterattack a strong MI bowling lineup. There was no doubt that Jaiswal would end up winning the Player of the Match award even if RR ended up as the losing side.
