After Gujarat Titans chose to field, Shami was on fire from his very first over. He got the ball to talk and beat the blades of both the openers on several occasions. In the third over, he bowled one on the fuller length, and beat the defense of Williamson, who was looking to deflect the delivery with an on-side flick.
The New Zealand captain was beaten all ends up and had to walk back. Sunrisers Hyderabad lost their first wicket at 26-1 after 2.5 overs.
Alan Wilkins, on-air went, “Bowled him, what a ripper! He continues his hold over the Kiwi.”
Williamson has now been dismissed five times in 53 balls by Shami in T20s.
