Indian leg spinner Yuzvendra Chahal entered his name into the history books by taking his 200th IPL wicket in match 38 of the Indian Premier League 2024 season between Rajasthan Royals and Mumbai Indians in front of the home crowd at Sawai Mansingh Stadium on Monday. Chahal dismissed MI's Mohammad Nabi to become the first player in the history of IPL to take 200 wickets. Congratulatory tweets flooded social media after RR's Chahal reached the phenomenal landmark.

Former India head coach Ravi Shastri was one of the many legendary cricketers who wished Chahal on the momentous achievement. The former India cricketer said Chahal's latest achievement was a tribute to his consistency over the years. Chahal was introduced in the eighth over, and he took just three balls to bag his first wicket of the last match of the Jaipur leg this season. He took the wicket of Mohammad Nabi, who became the 200th victim of the wily leg-spinner.

AB de Villiers, one of Chahal's best friends, spent eight seasons together at Royal Challengers Bengaluru. ABD lauded Chahal after he got his 200th wicket and called him the No. 1 bowler in the IPL. Meanwhile, former India teammate Shikhar Dhawan called him the "Sultan of Wickets in IPL" after his IPL achievement. Five-time IPL champions Mumbai Indians set a target of 180 for the high-flying Rajasthan Royals. Yashasvi Jaiswal was finally back among runs in the IPL 2024 season with an entertaining century (104 not out off 60 balls) as the Royals cruised in the run chase with nine wickets and eight balls to spare. Sandeep Sharma won the Player of the Match award for his outstanding figures of 5/18. With this win, Rajasthan Royals (14 points) are currently at the top of the IPL 2024 points table.
