IPL 2022: Shimron Hetmyer spills the beans on targeting Jason Holder
- Hetmyer admitted to Trent Boult that it was difficult initially to get going at the Wankhede wicket.

- LSG bowler Holder had to face the wrath of Hetmyer’s onslaught at the fag end of the innings
- The southpaw said he likes playing against him and scoring boundaries off him.

“Pretty much I like playing against Holder and we have banter that we do against each other. If he gets me out he will speak about it for hours and hours. But if I hit him, I will just watch and smile. That’s how it is,” Hetmyer said.

Hetmyer was also effusive in praise of Trent Boult for bowling a stellar first over. The pacer removed KL Rahul for a first-ball duck and also picked up the wicket of Krishnappa Gowtham. The left-arm bowler’s double strikes dented LSG’s innings from which they could not recover. RR eventfully won the match by three runs and now sits pretty at the first position in the points table.
