The right-arm seamer first dismissed the opener Wriddhiman Saha with the new ball making him chop one back onto his stumps.

Kumar further dismantled Noor Ahmad’s stumps to bundle out GT registering figures of 3/14 in 2.3 overs.

After scoring a match-winning 55 on his IPL debut, the 22-year-old carried his form against GT as well, as he got off the mark with a stupendous six down the ground against Sandeep Warrier on just the second ball of the innings. He went on to score 20 (10) with the help of two fours and a couple of sixes and top-scored for his side.
