IPL 2022, GT vs PBKS Live Score
“Much better surface, more even grass covering. Expect the ball to come on better, strokeplay to be better. Expect captains to win the toss, stick to the formula and bowl first”, reckons Graeme Smith at the pitch report from Mumbai.
The last time these two sides faced off, Rahul Tewatia smacked two special sixes off the last two balls off Odean Smith’s over to clinch a memorable six-wicket win.
Former New Zealand captain Daniel Vettori and South African spinner Imran Tahir reckon that wides and height no-balls should also come under the DRS scanner as umpires’ call sparked fresh debate during Rajasthan Royals’ IPL match against Kolkata Knight Riders in Mumbai.
Defending 18 runs from the last two overs, Royals skipper Sanju Samson was visibly upset by umpire Nitin Pandit’s three wide calls despite considerable movement from the batters– Rinku Singh and Nitish Rana– on a couple of occasions in the penultimate over on Monday.
Samson then went on to ask for a review when the ball was miles away from the bat in his sarcastic way of protest.
It sparked a fresh debate for call of wides and waist height no-balls for review with the Kiwi former all-rounder speaking up on the issue once again.
A big reason for Gujarat’s stellar run has been their ability to come back from tough situations.
Whether it is Rahul Tewatia, David Miller, Rashid Khan or skipper Hardik Pandya — they all have produced match-winning efforts during the course of the tournament. If one has failed, the other has risen to the occasion.
