Phil Splatters Spuns Spuns for Top On Top、Misters’s Misters」

0, 4, 5, 23 and 55: Philip Salt’s T20I outing against India in January left Royal Challengers Bengaluru fans worried about his IPL stint. Fans were concerned about how he would negotiate the spin attack. But the English opener has calmed the fans’ nerves with a blitzkrieg of a knock against Kolkata Knight Riders, especially against Varun Chakaravarthy. He launched an assault against the best spinner of IPL 2025 with 4, 4, 6 and 4 in the powerplay, hammering 20 runs.

He smashed 25-ball half-century to begin IPL campaign, ending Chakaravarthy’s spin mystery.
