Nortje clocked 151.71kmph, 151.37kmph, 150.21kmph, 149.97kmph, 149.29kmph, 149.15kmph and 148.76kmph. The fiery spell prompted former India cricketer and commentator Aakash Chopra to demand for a dashing ticket for Nortje. “Over-speeding ka challan kato #SeriousPace,” Chopra tweeted.
Nortje and Rabada have been terrific with the ball as they extracted additional bounce and tempo from the comparatively low and gradual wicket to dismantle SRH top-order.
