Thanks to the brilliant half-centuries of Sai Sudarshan (84 not out) and Shahrukh Khan (58), Gujarat Titans scored a respectable score of 200 runs for three wickets in 20 overs on Sunday in the IPL match against Royal Challengers Bangalore. A six was hit on the last ball of the last over of Gujarat's innings, but on the third ball of the same over, Rajat Patidar did something which blew Sai Sudarshan's senses.
This incident was seen when Yash Dayal, who was bowling the last over, bowled the third ball of the over very slowly and Sai Sudarshan tried to hit a six on this ball over the covers. The connection between his bat and ball was very good and it seemed that it would be a six but Rajat Patidar came in the way.
Patidar had caught the ball but when he felt that it was going to cross the boundary, he threw the ball inside and converted this certain six into 2 runs. Seeing this fielding of Patidar, even Sai Sudarshan could not believe it. You can watch the video of this incident below.
At the same time, a shameful record was registered in the name of RCB as soon as Gujarat Titans scored 200 runs in this match. Actually, RCB team has now become the team to concede 200 runs the most number of times in IPL history. He has given 200 or more runs 28 times. That means the opposition team has scored 200 or more runs against RCB 28 times in the IPL so far. In this matter he has equaled Punjab Kings.
Let us tell you that bowling has always been a major weakness of RCB in IPL and once again the same has been seen. Even in the current IPL season, Bengaluru team is struggling due to its weak bowling. The situation is that so far they have won only 2 out of 9 matches in the season. He is present at the bottom i.e. 10th position on the points table.
