Yuzvendra Chahal on Sunday became the joint leader in the all-time highest wicket-taker of the Indian Premier League as the spin bowler took four wickets against Sunrisers Hyderabad at the Sawai Mansingh Stadium in Jaipur.
Chahal's 4-29, however, went in vain as Sunrisers Hyderabad won the game in the last over after Sandeep Sharma bowled a crucial juncture to give the visitors a lifeline. Abdul Samad shot a six off the free hit with four runs needed off the last ball.
