After a promising innings in the final Test against England and an incredible domestic season, everyone expected Devdutt Padikkal's batting form to continue. However, it has been nothing less than a disaster as he departed for just 3 runs off 6 balls against Delhi Capitals (DC) in Match 26 of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024.

The Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) batter has scored 3, 7, 6, 9, and 0 in this year's IPL, which is surely a cause for concern for his team as despite his failures, they continue to give him chances. Netizens have taken to X (formerly known as Twitter) to troll and discuss the young lad's performance with the bat. However, while fielding, he has contributed by taking clean catches.
