Fazalhaq Farooqi Sets Unwanted IPL Record for Rajasthan Royals
Fazalhaq Farooqi, a bowler for the Rajasthan Royals, had a tough time in the recent IPL season.
Despite being the leading wicket-taker in a previous tournament, he didn't take a single wicket in the five matches he played.
This meant he gave away a lot of runs, setting a new unwanted record.
His performance was a surprise, especially considering his past success.
The Rajasthan Royals are now looking at how to improve for the next season after a disappointing run.
Fazalhaq Farooqi played five matches for Rajasthan Royals in the IPL 2025 season without taking a wicket.
Farooqi conceded a total of 210 runs in his five wicketless matches.
This performance resulted in the worst figures for a bowler in an IPL season while remaining wicketless.
Farooqi's poor performance contrasts with his success at the T20 World Cup 2024.
The Rajasthan Royals had a disappointing season after a successful three-year cycle.
