Mumbai's experienced all-rounder Shams Mulani grabbed a million eyeballs as he bowled an extraordinary delivery to castle Himanshu Rana in the ongoing Ranji Trophy encounter against Haryana. The left-arm spinner, who struck 91 runs in the first innings, bowled an absolute ripper to got rid of the stylish right-hander in the high-voltage match. 

The incident occurred during the 50th over of Haryana's first innings when Himanshu Rana had just joined skipper Ankit Kumar following the dismissal of Yash Naresh Vardhan. Before he could make his mark in the game, Rana was cleaned up by an unplayable delivery from Shams Mulani. 

From over the wicket, Shams Mulani bowled a tossed-up delivery around the leg stump. However, as the batter tried to play a defensive shot, the ball turned sharply, beating him on the outside edge. As a result, the ball went on to shatter his off stump, as Rana kept watching in disbelief. 

Although Mulani is a left-arm off-spinner, his magic ball was identical to Shane Warne's ball of the century, which got rid of Mike Gatting in the 1993 Ashes. 

Haryana In A Commanding Position Vs Mumbai

Regarding the match, Haryana strongly responded to Mumbai's first innings total of 315 runs. While skipper Ankit Kumar struck a valiant century, Lakshya Dalal and Yash Naresh Vardhan contributed 34 and 36 runs, respectively. As of writing, Haryana were 226 for four in 60.5 overs.
