Ayush Mhatre: Chennai Super Kings’ 17-year-old player Ayush Mhatre is seen in a different form in IPL 2026. Mhatre proved his talent and defeated Cameron Green, the most expensive foreign player of IPL 2026. This right-handed batsman hit Green’s balls with sixes and fours. Mhatre did such a thing to Green’s balls that the fans were surprised to see. Let us tell you how Mhatre showed his strength with the bat.
Ayush Mhatre took on Cameron Green
Ayush Mhatre is known for batting freely as soon as he comes to the crease and he did the same against KKR. Chennai lost the wicket of captain Ruturaj Gaikwad in the third over but it did not make any difference to Mhatre and this player gave a strong performance as soon as he came. When Green came to bowl in the fourth over, Mhatre hit a four on his second ball. After this, Green bowled an amazing third ball which Mhatre could not understand. Green thought that he would put pressure on the 17-year-old player but Mhatre had other intentions. This player hit a four on his fourth ball, a six on the fifth ball and then a six on the sixth ball also. Green has been bought by KKR for a huge price of Rs 25.20 crore but both the batting and bowling of this player have been flops.
Hat-trick of fours against Vaibhav too
Ayush Mhatre also hit a hat-trick of fours against Vaibhav Arora. Vaibhav Arora came in the last over of the powerplay and Mhatre hit fours on his first three balls. However, Mhatre also got out in the same over. Mhatre scored 38 runs in 17 balls with the help of 2 sixes and 6 fours. Let us tell you that Mhatre has scored 171 runs in 5 matches this season. His batting average is more than 34 and his strike rate is also beyond 170. Mhatre has so far hit 11 sixes and 15 fours.
