total of 8-226.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph_paragraph___QITb\">Head struck three sixes and six fours in his 21-ball innings.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph_paragraph___QITb\">All-rounder Green is the most expensive overseas signing in IPL history at $4.17 million.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.abc.net.au\/news\/2026-04-02\/ipl-sameer-rizvi-delhi-capitals-mitch-marsh-lucknow-super-giants\/106524364\" data-component=\"FullBleedLink\" class=\"RelatedCard_link__rsgR9 FullBleedLink_root__lTw_U interactive_focusContext__yRhc_ interactive_defaults__AKxUU FullBleedLink_showVisited__g3Xvz\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Rizvi guides Capitals to IPL victory<\/a><\/p>\n<p class=\"Typography_base__sj2RP RelatedCard_synopsis__cFwMW Typography_sizeMobile14__u7TGe Typography_lineHeightMobile20___U7Vr Typography_regular__WeIG6 Typography_colourInherit__dfnUx\" data-component=\"Typography\">Mitch Marsh launches his Indian Premier League season with three big sixes, but it was not enough to help the Lucknow Super Giants in a six-wicket loss to Delhi Capitals.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph_paragraph___QITb\">He has quickly found himself the topic of feverish debate in India after scoring only 18 and not bowling in the Knight Riders&#8217; opening defeat to Mumbai Indians.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph_paragraph___QITb\">He did not bowl against the Sunrisers, who were put into bat.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph_paragraph___QITb\">Heinrich Klaasen top-scored for the Sunrisers with 52 off 35 deliveries.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph_paragraph___QITb\">In the Knight Riders&#8217; reply, Green came out to bat at 2-67 before he was quickly involved in a mix-up with Angkrish Raghuvanshi.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph_paragraph___QITb\">At first, it was thought Raghuvanshi had been run out at the bowler&#8217;s end until video checks revealed he and Green had not crossed mid-pitch.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph_paragraph___QITb\">It was Green who had to depart after facing just two deliveries.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph_paragraph___QITb\">Raghuvanshi then ran himself out for 52 and, once Rinku Singh was dismissed for 35, the Knight Riders succumbed to 161 all out off 16 overs.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph_paragraph___QITb\">Jaydev Unadkat took 3-21 with the ball for the Sunrisers.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph_paragraph___QITb\">AAP\/ABC<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Cameron Green&#8217;s shaky start to his Indian Premier League (IPL) return has continued with an unfortunate run-out, but&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":581746,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[9],"tags":[64,63,18762,740,40422,13849,13848,31774,85,285012,91929,44867],"class_list":{"0":"post-581745","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-sports","8":"tag-au","9":"tag-australia","10":"tag-cameron-green","11":"tag-cricket","12":"tag-hyderabad","13":"tag-indian-premier-league","14":"tag-ipl","15":"tag-kolkata-knight-riders","16":"tag-sports","17":"tag-sunrisers","18":"tag-sunrisers-hyderabad","19":"tag-travis-head"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/581745","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=581745"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/581745\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/581746"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=581745"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=581745"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=581745"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
