In a bizarre twist during the IPL 2026 match between RCB and DC, a broadcast glitch shocked fans by displaying Mukesh Kumar’s delivery speed at a mere 42 kph. Now, Mukesh usually bowls at 135 kph, so you can imagine the memes flying around social media!

Despite the confusion, Mukesh had a solid outing, conceding only 32 runs in four overs and taking the crucial wicket of RCB captain Rajat Patidar. His performance was vital in restricting RCB to 175 runs, a total that ultimately fell short as DC chased it down with six wickets to spare.

Lungi Ngidi also impressed with his bowling, grabbing two wickets and discussing the pitch conditions post-match. He highlighted the challenges bowlers faced, mentioning how the ball was gripping more towards the end of the innings. With DC's bowlers stepping up, they proved that even with a glitch, their efforts were nothing short of impressive.

As the tournament progresses, fans will be hoping for more clarity on these speed readings and less tech drama. Can Mukesh maintain his form in the next matches?
