Defending 171 runs, LSG needed a wicket early on, and the breakthrough was provided by Digvesh Rathi. PBKS had raced away to 20 runs after just two overs before Rishabh Pant introduced the spinner into the attack, and the move paid off instantly.
However, Rathi still had the last laugh as he dismissed Arya two balls later. On the fifth ball of the over, Rathi bowled a short ball outside the off stump, and Arya decided to go for a big shot. The left-handed batsman went for a pull shot but ended up top-edging the ball.
Shardul Thakur took a simple catch in the mid-on region to give LSG the much-needed early breakthrough. And as Arya was making his way towards the dressing room, Rathi decided to give his friend a send-off.

The celebration was made famous by former West Indies allrounder Kesrick Williams. Later, Virat Kohli had also brought out the same celebration after taking Williams to the cleaners during a T20I game in 2019.
