Sarthak Ranjan, who is the son of independent member of parliament Pappu Yadav from the Purnia district in Bihar, performed exceptionally well in the recently held Delhi Premier League (DPL) game. On Monday night at Arun Jaitley Stadium, he scored 64 runs in 39 deliveries against the Central Delhi Kings, hitting 7 fours and 3 sixes.
The 29-year-old player started playing for Delhi T20 side in the year 2018. He has not been able to get selected for the Indian national team or even make a mark in the IPL till date. Though Sarthak is associated with the Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR), he is still waiting to make his mark in the IPL. It is difficult for him to grab the playing XI or impact player slot considering the present KKR team.
Many players have found their way into IPL through DPL and one of them is Priyanshu Arya. This explosive innings by Sarthak Ranjan could open the doors of the IPL for him.
Batting first, North Delhi Strikers posted a mammoth total of 209 runs for the loss of 3 wickets in 20 overs, thanks to captain Sarthak Ranjan's 64 and Yash Bhatia's 90. In reply, Central Delhi Kings won the match by 4 wickets with 10 balls remaining.
Central Delhi had a poor start, losing their captain Yash Dhull for just 10 runs, while Siddharth Joon made 31 and Yugal Saini made 20. Vansh Bedi also departed without scoring. However, excellent innings from Jonty Sidhu and Aditya Bhandari then brought Central Delhi to the brink of victory. Jasvir Sherawat and Keshav Dabas completed the remaining task, securing victory in just 18.2 overs.
This is Central Delhi Kings' third consecutive win, while this was North Delhi Strikers' first loss. Central Delhi will face Old Delhi 6 on August 5th, while North Delhi Strikers will face East Delhi Riders on August 5th.
