Khaleel Ahmed's Costly Over: A Turning Point in IPL 2025 Match
A Dramatic Over at M. Chinnaswamy Stadium
In a thrilling moment during the IPL 2025 season, Khaleel Ahmed faced a challenging over that became the most expensive of the tournament. This occurred in the 52nd match between Royal Challengers Bengaluru and Chennai Super Kings at the M. Chinnaswamy Stadium. The left-arm bowler was taken to task by Romario Shepherd, who scored an astonishing 33 runs in the 19th over. The onslaught began with a colossal six over midwicket, followed by another powerful shot straight down the ground. A wide edge also contributed four runs, intensifying the pressure on Ahmed.
Things escalated when Khaleel delivered a full toss that was sent over the boundary for the third six of the over. The situation worsened as he overstepped, resulting in a no-ball, which Shepherd capitalized on by hitting the free-hit delivery for yet another six. Although Khaleel managed to bowl a perfect yorker afterward, Shepherd concluded the over with a top-edged four. This over proved disastrous for CSK and shifted the momentum of the game, leaving the crowd in awe of Shepherd's explosive batting.
