The Kiwi pacer lived up to his reputation and set up Rohit Sharma, who fell in his trap and threw away his wicket for just 6 off just the 5th ball of the match.

Trent Boult breaks a massive IPL record with the wicket of Rohit Sharma | IPL 2024, RR vs MI

Trent Boult lived up to his reputation of taking a wicket in the first over and set up Rohit Sharma, who fell in his trap and threw away his wicket for just 6.

The Kiwi pacer lived up to his reputation and set up Rohit Sharma, who fell in his trap and threw away his wicket for just 6 off just the 5th ball of the match.

Trent Boult is known to take wickets in his very first over and Rajasthan Royal's match against the Mumbai Indians was no different.
The Kiwi pacer lived up to his reputation and set up Rohit Sharma, who fell in his trap and threw away his wicket for just 6 off just the 5th ball of the match.
Interestingly, It was his 26th wicket in the 1st over of the IPL, the most by any bowler in the history of the league. He overtook Bhuvneshwar Kumar, who had 25.
Boult's milestone also meant that Rohit's poor form against Rajasthan continued. He has scored 6, 0, 3 and 2 in his last 4 games against the Royals.
The zero in that list is a golden duck by Rohit in this season itself. Interestingly, it was Boult who got the better of Rohit in that match as well.

After Rajasthan Royals asked Mumbai Indians to bat first, Trent Boult bagged the wickets of Rohit Sharma, Naman Dhir and Dewald Brevis, with all 3 departing for first-ball ducks.

MI vs RR: Watch Trent Boult unleash havoc on Mumbai Indians in his first spell | IPL 2024

<h2>After Rajasthan Royals asked Mumbai Indians to bat first, Trent Boult bagged the wickets of Rohit Sharma, Naman Dhir and Dewald Brevis, with all 3 departing for first-ball ducks.</h2>

New Zealand pacer Trent Boult turned the game on its head with a spectacular opening spell for the Rajasthan Royals, claiming three vital wickets against his old squad, the Mumbai Indians. This devastating performance placed the Royals in a dominant position right from the get-go.
In a stunning turn of events, Boult dismissed Rohit Sharma and Naman Dhir in the very first over, with both batsmen returning to the pavilion without scoring. The dismissal of Rohit Sharma, a beloved figure and the former captain of Mumbai Indians, plunged the stadium into a hush, leaving fans and spectators in disbelief.
Boult&rsquo;s prowess in the powerplay overs is underscored by his remarkable achievement of taking 25 wickets in the first over of IPL innings since 2020, a feat unmatched by any other bowler in the league, with the next closest competitor having no more than 8.
The onslaught didn&rsquo;t stop there, as Dewald Brevis, entering as an impact substitute, was also sent back to the dugout for a golden duck in Boult's subsequent over. Rohit, Dhir and Brevis, in fact, all perished for first-ball ducks.

This early blitz by Boult set the stage for Nandre Burger to capitalize on the mounting pressure, leading to Ishan Kishan's dismissal, caught by Sanju Samson. The cumulative effect of these early blows left Mumbai reeling at 20/4, marking it as their second-lowest total at the loss of their fourth wicket in IPL history.

Player of the match Trent Boult looked ahead to a likely World Cup semi-final meeting with "red hot" India after New Zealand beat Sri Lanka by five wickets in Bangalore on Thursday to all but assure their place in the last four.
'To play a World Cup in India and to come up against the host nation, a team that's red hot, playing good cricket, at a great ground... yeah, you couldn't script it any better. So, excited if that happens. I feel like we've done all we can from our point of view and, yeah, we'll just wait and see what happens,' Boult said.
When asked about the conditions in Mumbai for the semi-final, the pacer said, 'we've played India a lot of times. Quality players. (They) Know these conditions very well. Yeah, hard to comment on what the conditions at Wankhede (Stadium), but history suggests it's a good wicket. And yeah, nice to have come up against them in Dharamshala (in their group stage match). Totally different ground and different facilities, but yeah, we'll turn our focus to that challenge. Very, very good players, but pressure does things to the best of players at any time. So, just looking forward to taking that on.'
Boult took three wickets for 37 runs after New Zealand won the toss and decided to field, with the 2019 runners-up eventually bowling Sri Lanka out for 171.

Trent Boult taking a wicket in his very first over isn't surprising anymore.
Rajasthan Royals' IPL 2023 game against RCB on Sunday was no different. The fast bowler from New Zealand sent shockwaves into the crowd by dismissing an in-form Virat Kohli for a golden duck off the very first ball of the game.
Interestingly, it was the very first time that Boult got the wicket of Virat in the IPL, which also happened to be his 100th wicket in the cash-rich league.

The most successful IPL team, Mumbai Indians with 5 IPL titles is languishing at the bottom of the 10-team table without any points. The Rohit Sharma-led team, though has a reputation for crawling out of holes, has suffered as many as 5 back to back defeats this season. Even in 2015, the team lifted itself from 5 consecutive defeats at the beginning of the season and went on to win the IPL title. But there are slim chances of history repeating itself this season because of the 10-team format and they now need to buckle up. Here are the top 4 things that might have gone wrong for MI:The Mega Auction goof-up:MI failed to retain its swashbuckling core during the mega auction that has come to haunt them in the ongoing season. The result of their mistakes is now being reflected in the form of the team's failure. From not being able to successfully bid on Trent Boult to buying Jofra Archer who they knew was going to miss the whole season to retaining the woefully out of form Kieron Pollard, Mumbai is now paying the price of the decisions they made in February.  The worrisome top-order failure: The MI skipper, the across all formats India skipper, the opener for India, and his IPL team, Rohit Sharma seems to be reeling under the pressure of immense expectation. The skipper though has got good starts, he has miserably failed in converting them into needful knocks for the team. He has so far scored 41, 10, 3, 26 and 28 in 5 matches so far. Apart from him, MI's other opener, Ishan Kishan hasn't been consistent for the team. Just to get Kishan on board, Mumbai splurged 15.25 crores, did not bid on a lot of potential players and waited for the 2nd day of the auction. However, the worth is being questioned now as Kishan has only performed in 2 matches so far. He has scored 81, 54, 14, 26 and 3 in 5 games.Bumrah, the lone wolf? During the bidding, MI lost to Rajasthan who retained Trent Boult. However, they got hold of Jofra Archer who was earlier a part of the Rajasthan squad. But is it useful? Until 2021, the team boasted of a fearful bowling line-up consisting of Jasprit Bumrah, Trent Boult, and Rahul Chahar, the responsibility has fallen solely on Bumrah now. Bumrah and Boult together got 52 wickets for MI during their 2020 title win and Boult has been in his magnificent form for Rajasthan. On the other hand, Jofra Archer who is under rehabilitation had opted out of the season even before the auction. Apparently, Bumrah too has failed to impress so far and has picked only 4 wickets in 5 games. Although for MI, Murugan Ashwin has performed, the other bowlers, Basil Thampi, Tymal Mills, Jaydev Unadkat have proved way too expensive.The missing matchwinners With the top order failing, the lower middle order not showing up responsibly, MI has been heavily dependent on Suryakumar Yadav's performance who has performed well consistently since his return from the injury. Apart from him, they have Dewald Brevis and Tilak Varma who have come out good. But MI is severely being affected by the absence of Quinton de Kock, Trent Boult, Rahul Chahar, and the Pandya brothers. The missing charm of Bumrah, Sharma, and Kishan is further holding them back.

Emerging from the ruins of the previous season, Sanju Samson led Rajasthan displayed a royal show as their star-studded team registered the first victory of IPL 2022 after defeating Sunrisers Hyderabad by 61 runs in a lopsided game on Tuesday evening. 
Sent in to bat first, Rajasthan's skipper led from the front. While Samson who was playing in his 100th match for RR scored a stunning 27 ball 55, he was ably supported by Paddikkal who smashed 41 off 29. A late cameo of 32 in 13 balls by Shimron Hetmeyer helped them post a daunting 211-run target for the opposition.  
The Royals performed with the ball as well as they restricted Kane Williamson's team to a mere 149 in 20 overs. SRH kept losing wickets at regular intervals as they never recovered from Prasidh Krishna's early double strike. While Krishna and Trent Boult got 2 wickets each, Yuzvendra Chahal scalped 3 for Rajasthan. A late fightback by Aiden Markram and Washington Sunder who played a remarkable innings 57 and 40 respectively went in vain as Rajasthan wrapped the game comfortably. 
While RR next play MI on 2nd April, SRH face Lucknow on 4th April.

One team that has always troubled India in Test cricket outside home is undoubtedly&nbsp;New Zealand. The Kiwis were the first side to book a berth in the World Test Championship final, not based on luck but because of a super squad they possess. Let's take a look at 5 Kiwi players Team India should be vary of.&nbsp;
Trent Boult
Not just for India but Trent Boult&nbsp;with a new ball in Tests and swinging English conditions is a nightmare for any batsman. With express pace and ability to swing the ball both ways, Boult&nbsp;slays with a smile.&nbsp;The 31-year old&rsquo;s 77 Tests have yielded 281 scalps including 8 fifers and a ten-wicket haul.
Ross Taylor
Ross Taylor seems to be in the Kiwi squad from ages and has already attained a legendary status. He has been one of New Zealand's strong batting pillars and has scored the most runs for the Blackcaps&nbsp;in the longest format. 37-year-old Taylor, who is at the final stage of his career,&nbsp;may not have won a World Cup but a World Test Championship crown would be a massive feather in his cap.
Tim Southee
Another veteran in the Kiwi ranks
Tom Latham
One batsman who has been most constant as an opener for the Kiwis over the years is Tom Latham. His ability to drop anchor will come handy in Southampton. He has faced the likes of Jasprit&nbsp;Bumrah,&nbsp;Mohammed&nbsp;Shami&nbsp;and Ishant&nbsp;Sharma&nbsp;as well. In the last Test series vs India, he scored the most runs for New Zealand&nbsp;and averaged over 40.
Kane Williamson
At number 1, not just on this list but also in ICC&nbsp;Test rankings for batsmen, is skipper Kane Williamson. With doubt, he is one of the most dependable modern-day players in whites and Team India bowlers have already made it clear that they wish to get rid of him&nbsp;early on. He already has the most Test hundreds for the Kiwis and averages a healthy 54 in 144 innings.

Tim Southee
Another veteran in the Kiwi ranks who has always troubled India is Tim Southee.&nbsp;Southee&nbsp;was India's nemesis&nbsp;the last time Kohli's&nbsp;men were in the Kiwi land. In the 2-match Test series last year, Southee&nbsp;emerged as the highest wicket-taker with 14 scalps.&nbsp;
Tom Latham

He already has the most Test hundreds for the Kiwis and averages a healthy 54 in 144 innings.

On a slow and low batting surface of Chennai, Mumbai&nbsp;Indians elected to bat first as the openers gave them just the perfect start. Sunrisers&nbsp;Hyderabad fought back to remove captain Rohit&nbsp;Sharma and Suryakumar&nbsp;Yadav&nbsp;in quick succession. Quinton de Kock&nbsp;scored 40 but the rest of the batsmen failed to adjust to the surface in Chennai. Old warhorse&nbsp;Kieron&nbsp;Pollard then rose to the occasion and smashed an unbeaten 35 off 22 balls to take Mumbai&nbsp;to 150/5. In reply, the Sunrisers&nbsp;looked in a hurry to finish the game as Jonny&nbsp;Bairstow&nbsp;took apart the Mumbai&nbsp;bowlers. He smashed a 22 ball 43 but no one else failed to hit the groove. Captain Warner scored a 34 ball 36 before being run out by Hardik&nbsp;Pandya. Sunrisers&nbsp;imploded once again as they fell short by 13 runs with Rahul&nbsp;Chahar&nbsp;and Trent Boult&nbsp;taking 3 wickets each. 3rd straight loss for Sunrisers&nbsp;this season as they are yet to open their account in 2021 as Mumbai&nbsp;Indians jumped to the top of the points table with their 2nd win.&nbsp;

Can Mumbai Indians go the distance for the 5th time?

Can the most successful team of the IPL&nbsp;sort their spin-woes to go the distance once again?

&nbsp;
One IPL side which has made it a habit of starting off slow but peaking&nbsp;just at the right moment in the tournament is the Mumbai&nbsp;Indians. A&nbsp;solid nucleus of players has made sure that Mumbai&nbsp;reached the playoffs in 8 of the last 10 editions, winning 4 of them.
They may be the most successful&nbsp;IPL&nbsp;franchise, but things weren't the same to start with. Despite putting forward a brilliant show each year, MI failed to get their hands on the silverware in the first 5 editions.&nbsp;Their fortunes turned around when Rohit&nbsp;Sharma&nbsp;took over as the skipper. They were crowned the champions in his very first season in charge and once Mumbai&nbsp;got the taste of success, they were hungry for more.&nbsp;
MI won the IPL&nbsp;every alternate year after that and are the defending champions. Apart from their captain, all-rounders&nbsp;form their core group. Pandya&nbsp;brothers and Kieron&nbsp;Pollard have single-handedly&nbsp;decimated oppositions on several occasions. India's premier fast bowler Jasprit&nbsp;Bumrah&nbsp;will once again spearhead the pace attack and&nbsp;Mumbai&nbsp;has further strengthened it by roping in Trent Boult&nbsp;and&nbsp;Nathan Coulter-Nile. Though they will miss the services of IPL's&nbsp;highest wicket-taker Lasith&nbsp;Malinga who has opted out of this edition.
But the 4-time champions look a little weak when it comes to their&nbsp;spinners. Given the turning tracks in UAE, just&nbsp;Jayant Yadav and&nbsp;Rahul Chahar as front-line&nbsp;spinners may be an issue. Though&nbsp;Anukul Roy and Krunal Pandya&nbsp;are good 6th bowling options to have but the team can't completely depend on them.&nbsp;
Never the less, Mumbai&nbsp;have proved their critics wrong many times and they look too good of a side to not go a long way in IPL 2020.
