Most expensive spell in IPL
Jofra Archer, known for his precision and pace, had an uncharacteristically tough outing in the IPL 2025 match against Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH), conceding an astonishing 76 runs in his four-over spell. This performance now marks the most expensive spell of his IPL career, a rare blemish for the highly skilled pacer.
The match at Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium witnessed a brutal onslaught from SRH’s batters, particularly Travis Head, who dismantled Archer’s bowling with finesse and power. Head, in sensational form, smashed Archer for multiple boundaries and towering sixes, including a breathtaking 105-meter hit that sent the crowd into a frenzy. The conditions, coupled with Archer’s struggle to find his rhythm, led to one of the most expensive bowling figures in IPL history.
