Krunal Pandya became Piyush Chawla's 150th scalp in IPL.

Piyush Chawla became the third bowler in IPL history after Lasith Malinga and Amit Mishra to take 150 wickets.

Krunal Pandya became his 150th scalp when Chawla ran back off his own bowling to take the catch. Chawla went for runs and finished with figures 1 for 57 as Kolkata Knight Riders ended it sixth straight loss run with a 34-run win over Mumbai Indians.

Mishra also reached the milestone of 150 earlier in this season while Malinga achieved the feat last year. In the Mumbai Indians chase, Hardik Pandya also notched up a milestone by slamming the fastest fifty of IPL 2019.
