English fast bowler Chris Jordan was instrumental in the defeat of Chennai Super Kings (CSK). Jordan spent 58 runs in 3.5 overs and did not get any wicket.
The performance of Chennai Super Kings (CSK) in the current season of the Indian Premier League (IPL) has been disappointing. In the match held on Sunday, CSK lost to Gujarat Titans (GT) by three wickets. This was the fifth defeat of the Ravindra Jadeja-led side in six matches and they remain at the ninth position in the points table.
Chris Jordan came out as a villain in Chennai’s defeat against Gujarat. English fast bowler Jordan proved to be very expensive in this match and he also did the last over of the match. In that last over, Gujarat had to score 13 runs to win. Jordan did not give any runs on the first two balls, but on the third ball, David Miller hit a six.

Now seven runs were to be scored in three balls and the match had become very exciting. In an attempt to play a big shot on the next ball, Miller got caught at short third man. But despite this, Miller was not out because Jordan’s full toss ball was thrown above the waist and the umpire declared it a no-ball. This mistake of Jordan wrote the script for Chennai’s defeat in the match.
Chris Jordan spent a total of 58 runs in 3.5 overs and he did not get any wicket. Due to this expensive bowling, Jordan has made an unwanted record in his name. Jordan has now reached number two for CSK in terms of scoring the most runs in an IPL match. Also, Read KL Rahul and Athiya Shetty: Suniel Shetty’s reaction to KL Rahul’s century goes viral
