IPL 2022

Live Cricket News: When it comes to social media, Jimmy Neesham is an even wiser steward than he is on the cricket pitch. Shimron Hetmyer, a teammate of the New Zealand all-rounder who plays for the Rajasthan Royals, was the most recent person to join in the fun.

Neesham tagged his teammate and wrote, “I see you Hetmyer,” in response to an ESPNCricinfo post on the batsmen in T20s with the best strike rate in the death overs. According to the post, Hetmyer was ranked fifth with a strike-rate of 205.66, while Neesham was ranked second with a strike-rate of 220.45. The strike-rate was determined using data from the first 10 innings of the IPL 2022.

Hetmyer too had a funny reaction to Neesham’s call-out and wrote: “I’m getting there.”

The Royals offered one of the funniest responses in response to the exchange between their two players. The Royals took the humour a step further by posting an edited image of their coach Kumar Sangakkara with the caption “you’re doing wonderful honey.”

Hetmyer enjoyed a successful season with the Royals, who placed second in the IPL 2022. Hetmyer was often seen performing a few cameos, which resulted in 314 runs from 15 matches with a strike rate of 153.92 and helped the franchise to successful finishes. Neesham, on the other hand, only had two chances and managed just 31 runs with a 114.81 strike rate.

After an absence of more than six months, Hetmyer has been called back into the national setup by the Windies cricket board. He will play in the Windies’ five-match T20I series against India, which the Men in Blue are currently leading 1-0. Due to concerns about his fitness, the board did not consider him for a while. At the UAE 2021 World Cup, he last played in a T20I in November against Australia.
