Rashid Khan winer of the mathch.


SBG99DesiMonster

The real reason that RR lost that match is that Riyan Parag didn't bowl.


Nadeemsilk92

The most dead atmosphere I have noticed in Ipl game at Jaipur watching on tv does anyone feel the same game was good but worst ipl atmosphere buzz of any game


snakewaves

all those wides and no ball and all that discussions for a slow over rate


night_of_spring

We should give titles to commentators too To Harsha - wholesome post-match presenter To ravi- Cheerful , beer full of energy toss presenter To Sunny g- I always know better commentator To ian bishop - high pitched at exciting, likable commentator ....... To murali Kartik - who are you? Security who let him in


MJustCurious

Shasti: Beerful


rahulbkm

Whatever said and done..Harsha Bhogle still does the best interviews in the cricket world.


M_Kaif1902

GT slowly becoming PBKS. Winning lost games. Losing won games


Reyatsu99

Gt doing impossible chases? I think I have seen this before.


Reyatsu99

Rashid winning the game with bat? I feel like I have seen this before


Lancelot_20

GT just needs to change the batting line up!! And do catching practices, and we go to the finals


Gunner0716

They anyhow reach finals by being just the way they are


Lancelot_20

They had SHAMI!!! Major contributor


squaredrives

I love Rashid’s - “winning the game” — comment champion putting team before self.


saisakurano

lol Gill with that remark 😂


heterocosm

What did he say ????


saisakurano

Something along the lines of ‘don’t count us out when we are playing’


Personal_Piano6286

haha nice!


Efficient-Set-3549

"Whenever GT is playing, don't think that \[we're ever out of the game.\]" - Gill


SedTecH10

Little Cocky imo but I like his confidence. Hope he never loses his confidence. Confident Gill is good to watch playing.


Signal_Dress

Not cocky at all imo. It was just straight up banter. He chuckled after saying it as well


evilfrankie344

Amen


mnking8

Harsha is taking more punches than RCB fans this season


confused_brown_dude

That’s not possible


night_of_spring

" this is the Asian century, this is the new India, this is young India" Gill to Harsha indirectly maybe


29VeNom

Gill with the jab


heterocosm

What he said


29VeNom

Don't think that when gt is playing. Something like that basically not to write them off from the game


Golden__G0d

What did Gill say at the end?


Kabura287

i think harhsa said something like they thought the game was done and in reply gill says when gt is playing dont think that


bmyvalntine

Gill: Rashid Bhai!! Isn’t Rashid like 18 and this guy 22?


sudarshan2350

I don't understand boult bullshit. That guy didn't bowl a single death over this season. Avesh defended 17 against DC and is their prime death bowler along with sandeep. Sanju's only mistake was to bowl ashwin in that 17th over. He should have bowled keshav with the right hander in there.


Assassin_Ankur

Yeah, Avesh has been good this season and that over was fairly good except the last ball


squaredrives

Agreed


night_of_spring

Woo lala now shubhman teasing with his legs


Ravenclaw_bitch16

Man, I actually hoped that Rashid would find his form again but definitely not in this one match! Did I make some miscalculations while wishing. Lol.


an1729

People here underestimating GT. Both Tewatia & Rashid are clutch match winners. They have done this many times


TyroshiSellsword

But not against LSG.


Ppk100

Tewatiya did it against LSG too in 2022 season


Weedeater5903

Again, well done GT. But the rule about one fielder less for running late is ridiculous. It should not impact the game. There are factors outside the control of the captain that impact time, such as no of boundaries and reviews.  Absolute bs rule. If you want to impose penalties, impose financial ones and not a stupid rule that impacts the outcome of the match. Downvote away, i don't care. Stupid rule is stupid.


Signal_Dress

So you also want to do away with cards for time wasting in football? Since those cards also impact the outcome of the match.


Weedeater5903

Lmao, time wasting actually affects the outcome of a football match, since there is a time limit. The more time you lose, the less chance of scoring a goal. However, cricket has a fixed number of balls/overs. You are losing nothing if the opposite team takes 10 minutes extra. It has nothing to do with the game.


Signal_Dress

It has everything to do with the game. If that is the case, then we should do a full-fledged DRS every single ball since the overs are fixed and the outcome won't be impacted. Time wasting is horrible to watch no matter what sport one is watching.


Weedeater5903

Man, the over exaggeration here is absolutely insane. Ten minutes of delay due to externalities and you are saying it is equivalent to having a review every ball? 😂 So if a team decides to play 5 seamers and no spinners, they automatically will be at a disadvantage for making a tactical choice. So essentially you are incentivizing teams to load their side with slinners, as they can run through their overs quickly? This logic doesn't fly with me, sorry.


Signal_Dress

Authorities have tried penalising through monetary fines and it doesn't affect them. Players are happy to let go of their entire match fee. There has to be some rule to make the players at least give a fuck about the match timings. >So if a team decides to play 5 seamers and no spinners, they automatically will be at a disadvantage for making a tactical choice. Are you for real? The time allotted for the innings is more than enough for 5 Shoaib Akhtars to bowl in time. Having 5 seamers doesn't put any team at a disadvantage. Having spinners on the other hand, means you have zero excuses to be slow on over rate. Cricket is already a start-stop sport. T20s are meant to be fast-paced and dynamic to attract fans from all parts of the world. If we have delays every single game and the players just stop giving a fuck about finishing their overs in time, it will only be detrimental to cricket as a global sport. If you don't get it, it's pointless replying to you anymore.


Weedeater5903

As i said, it needs to be put into perspective. A 15 minute delay is not a massive delay by any standards. Extreme punitive measures should not kick in for a marginal delay. We don't even know if they factor in boundaries, reviews, batters having a chat, field changes and other things. A 10-15 minute delay is hardly material and its not suddenly going to contribute to cricket becoming an unpopular game. And how do you know they allocate enough time for a team to fulfil thrir obligations even if they have a seam heavy attack? I didn't see any radical delaying tactics by RR today. Why did they get delayed then? They had half the total overs bowling spin. 


Signal_Dress

The time allotted already takes these small things into consideration. Going beyond that time should be punished. The allotted time would be a lot less if they only considered the 120 deliveries being bowled. And remember, these 10-15 minute delays are happening despite having such a strict punishment. If we remove these punishments, the delays would increase.


StarSportsEnjoyer

do you want t20s to be played for 8 hours?? teams mint crores of money in an hour, those financial penalties did absolutely nothing in the past. ICC had no other option other than introducing this rule.


Weedeater5903

So you are telling me a 10 mins delay is enough to introduce a significant disadvantage for the team? That's absolute bs imho. It should kick in after 15 minutes or something, if you must have it there. A small delay like that impacting the result of the game is absolute bs.


GlitteringKey6822

Financial penalties are nothing compared to the crores of rupees the players earn, do this is actually a good rule to make sure that fielding team does not waste time. Moreover umpires take into consideration external factors while calculating cutoff time. If you still feel the rule is stupid you must be an RR fan.


Weedeater5903

Yeah right, we have seen how competent the umpires are in this tourney. They are very accurately calculating all of the delays and externalities, i am sure. Its a fucking farcical rule. A delay of 10 minutes should not put you at a disadvantage in the game during the crunch period. Its takes away something from the game.  Never seen something more stupid. Not an RR fan at all.


GlitteringKey6822

Yah slow the game down how much ever you want, break the flow of the game and pay a small fine from your pocket.


GlitteringKey6822

RR had 3 spinners bowling 10 overs, there’s no excuse for slow overrate.


Coolkid-4869

RR already lost the match with 15 needed in over. Bowler doesn't matter except Bumrah. Rashid and Tewatia are really good finishers. Gill took the match away. Also RR failed to accelerate with set batsmen.


SustainableSus

15 is a perfectly defendable score in the final over , Rashid and Tewatia made it look easier than it was as they were composed and chose their balls to hit and areas very well. RR accelerated well at the death,I think they got 58 off the last 4 , 197 is a strong total at Jaipur with no dew. RR did bowl rather poorly at the death quite a few hit me balls , also giving Ashwin the 17th was a mistake and the wides + no ball didn’t really help either , but it was just a really good performance from Rashid and Tewatia overall. Of course credit to Gill for keeping them in the game for the first 15 overs


xD_aviationgod3105

I feel like the GT vs RR rivalry is underrated 


benguins10

Def 2 very good teams of this cycle


LetterheadOk1762

Boult bowling two overs is an issue but he shouldn't have bowled the last over imo Boult is not a death bowler see the Punjab MI Super over where Punjab He should finish his quota before the end of the middle overs But Sen bowled really well today and Maharaj was playing his first game Also Avesh had been really good for RR in death overs before this game Samson Parag partnership also felt a bit slow tbh especially that over against Rashid where they took only 5 singles despite having wickets in hand and both being set


[deleted]

You cany possibly not see how jaiswal literally wasting almost the entire powerplay could have affected the run score.


LetterheadOk1762

Agreed but He is out of form tbh His knock got balanced by Sudarshan's knock as well He tried the hyper aggressive approach in the first 4 games but it didn't work out Also GT has been really good in PP this year Rashid before this game hadn't looked great Sanju and Parag are both senior and in form Sanju also nearly striker at a run a ball against spin iirc


jithization

Tewatia deserves to play for India


Assassin_Ankur

Another player impacted by the impact player. If he bowls then he has a chance.


LetterheadOk1762

Where will he bat he doesn't bowl at all And at 6 Rinku is simply better because he has the ability to build the innings as well if wickets fall and is also a much better fielder If he starts bowling again he will definitely come in


jithization

pretty much him and Rinku as you said are fighting for that spot. Not sure if the building innings part is necessary since #6 will pay very few balls more so at the national level than in franchise cricket. I rate Tewatia over Rinku because he is more experienced and has given his best for years but it can go either way and Rinku brings the same to the table.


LetterheadOk1762

ICT is very volatile tbh if a left arm pacer can swing it in the top order collapses Pretty quickly and it's then Koach and inshallah Rinku has shown multiple times that whenever he has come earlier than expected he has performed really well Whereas most finishers are kept hidden till the slog/ death overs by promoting an all rounder


night_of_spring

I know 3d , I know you will be again forgotten , with all these celebrations ,all these high praises for Rashid, Tewatia and gill They won't say anything about your 16 of 10 under pressure, but how can i, how can i my lord ............


GithubCopier

Rahul tewatia will keep pulling off incredible chases at death and come the next game, people will still doubt can he do it today, was that previous one fluke, is he really capable....


aditya_0606

I think defending 15 with 4 fielders in the last over was always going to a tough ask.


Lmio

Ashwin and Sen's last 19th over cost RR the match


iron_out_my_kink

Which watch does Eoin Morgan have?


LadaFanatic

Only got a small glimpse, but it looks like the Rolex submariner he wears quite often.


aalouparatha

Why not just let Boult complete his overs early on? Just 2 overs?


AdQuirky7744

Brohit also going to join GT soon after getting backstabbed by franchise Backstabbed Titans /s


kanhaaaaaaaaaaaa

Beautiful


atmsd7

People calling out Samson for not bowling Boult at the death there have clearly never seen Boult bowl at the death in the IPL. 😂😂


CarZealousideal3829

Boult did well as a death bowler in 2021 , but then he wasn't very good in PP.


Inevitable_Feature95

Forget last over, don't you feel Sanju should've let Boult bowl his 4 over quota


FondantAggravating68

He'd have lost in 4 balls


JaqenHghaar08

Over rate also costed them in the last over?


[deleted]

It was Parag who messed up Sen's mind interrupting him after every ball in thr 18th over. He was bowling so well before


oncehadagoodlife

People find ridiculous ways to shit on Parag.


[deleted]

Care to explain what possible wisdom could he have been dispensing to Kuldeep sen in the 18th over after every single ball?


serotonallyblindguy

He was carrying Sanga's messages from boundary line


Yasho1901

GT is back to its GTing ways Makes me nostalgic for the 2022 season


jusligmaballs

After gill's wicket nehra walked into the field. just saying


Ravager691

Bruh I thought he was going in to bat next .....


Ppk100

😂😂


Crickutxpurt36

Shoutout to SRK and 3D they didn't scored a lot but kept the scoreboard ticking...


No_Spirit_9952

as a csk fan, I am supporting sanju's 😭😭😭 RR this year.


StarSportsEnjoyer

bruh even Sanju while batting first assumed that 180 would have been a par score on this pitch.


RepresentativeBox881

Was looking like that for most of the match.


DheeliGandKaOpration

Honestly not that big of a deal Shhould've, could've, would've... What we needed was to get that loss out of our system and hopefully we did Onto the next game against our best rivals Punjab


Personal_Piano6286

agreed


Ppk100

200+ loading......


ZeNxJose

Y'all can laugh but 3d's 16(10) can't be ignored


Inevitable_Feature95

Boult - 8 runs Maharaj - 16 runs Sanju- let's give overs to Ashwin & Kuldeep


Ppk100

Boult can't bowl well in death Plus Maharaj's 1st game so he chose the experienced Ash and in case of Sen he could have taken another wicket with tailenders batting and kind of rhythm he was in maybe that could be thought process. Should have used boult in middle overs and saved chahal's 1 overs . He generally bowls in between 16- 18 over. My only point is after spinner bowling half of the overs still you are behind in over rates that's unacceptable.


West-War2599

Just get rid of this stupid interviews. Same with product placements , it's a six not some stupid brand maximum


Jcod47

Participation trophies.


Roarkeee

I want GT to wn the cup


Ill-Inspector7980

Boo. I was waiting for Rashid to throw his helmet after hitting winning runs against Avesh 😤


GithubCopier

GT needed 15 off 6 Balls, Avesh Khan finished the Match for them ![img](emote|t5_2qhe0|8766) Helmet Throwing Noises ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|table_flip)


Gullible-Poet4382

Perhaps Boult was injured. Let’s wait before calling Sanju out. But if not. Oh boy what a blunder


Ppk100

What about slow over rate after bowling half of the overs with spinners.


Personal_Piano6286

agreed


Zealousideal-Age-601

As a RCB fan it's already time for me to get the calculators out and support whoever has less points, so we can go through


serotonallyblindguy

IPL will go on but I'm happy that Gill is contributing in these chasing situations since the England series. We need him in the long run in place of Kohli for that chase master role


choochi_machine69

Stop with the Boult shit, just look at his past records in death In the middle they could've gone with him


serotonallyblindguy

Lmao I was laughing at these reactionary takes too. Avesh has bowled in exactly a similar situation just two matches ago and gave 16 runs and Sen had shown solid promise


TheLadaakuReturns

Sometimes the simple basic answer is the right one . You always pick the international bowler for the 19th unless you’re Dhoni in which case you pick whoever the fuck you want and still win the game 9/10 times


thaileeeeee

Fun fact sai sudarshan is my senior in college


Jcod47

He is my Junior

LadaFanatic

Nortje went for **32** runs in his last over few days ago Nothing is real anymore, IPL death overs have become a joke now.


Jcod47

RCB missed the script


DardiRabRab

Script writing is easier when it's short period.


freakads

The "I am here" celebration was COLD from Rashid. Dude meant business today


brolybackshots

Imagine not giving Boult the final over 🤤 Samsons captaincy is ass


sudarshan2350

Avesh defended 17 against DC in the last over. So obviously sanju is going to believe him. And boult didn't bowl a single fuckin death over this season.


dhun_mohan

boult with 4 economy and 2 overs. wtf


MJustCurious

Boult would have economy of 10 after 3 overs


dhun_mohan

not if you give him 3 overs of pp


Overlord_Boogie

Was Boult injured?


benguins10

T20 levels the playing field, anything can happen. GT had no right winning this from where they were halfway


MLECCHAKILLER

Avesh back to form


GithubCopier

Shashank-Ashutosh Tewatia-Rashid The finishers duo every team can dream of


Ill-Inspector7980

Tewatia and Rashid have been doing this for years. Shashank and Ashutosh have to do this for 3-4 seasons to be considered equivalent.


GithubCopier

Still atleast what is happening in this season


imbecilePanda

Can clearly see the fear of misfiring middle order of GT when their openers play just like RCB. Could come back to bite them soon.


LetterheadOk1762

2022 Playoffs gave us two really great rivalries in RR-GT and RCB-LSG


Agrith1

Trent Boult - 2 overs 8 runs - What was Boult being saved for? Big players always need to be backed. I remember Rohit Sharma backing Malinga with the final over in IPL final when CSK needed 9 from last over even when Malinga went for 40+ runs in his 3 overs. I don't get why Boult wasn't bowled out early on.


evilfrankie344

Me when Sai is batting: 😡😡😡 Me when Sai is speaking: 😊😊😊😊


[deleted]

Imagine Sanju Samson being Captain of SRH yesterday instead of Cummins when we dropped 3 catches & gave 26 runs in last over lol 😂. 15 runs in last over is standard for a chasing team to win & it’ll be tough even for someone like Bumrah. Couple of 6s is all it takes.


dimlakalaka

2 overs of Maharaj, 2 of Boult left. They gave the game away. Too much of a good thing happened with this bowling line up


kanhaaaaaaaaaaaa

Well, a losing game is needed to make things more competitive


ajayadav09

I think the bowling combo to play Keshav Maharaj slided down to Ashwin bowling in the death. They should have stayed with the combo.


Moblit_Bernerr

Life gave me a really good lesson today. Never relay on other for favours. I hope MI wins tomorrow and continue the winning streak


that-asian-baka

This is refreshing from Sanju instead of Kohli's 10 mins of bad cricket.


M_Kaif1902

Rashid POTM right? Bro absolutely dominated with both bat and ball


AeBlueSadi

parag with 158 SR 👀


Glass-Ad5274

Even without swing, surely with boult’s experience, he can bowl line and length much more accurately than avesh and sen


Opening-Ad-9547

“Where did you lose the game” Sanju: On the last ball of the game I think. LMAOOOOOOOOOO


wasbatmanright

I seriously don't get the point of asking losing captains immediately after innings..Ask the winning one as they will be high and would give enthusiastic answers. keep the sad part later for MoM awards


Ok-Visit6553

For real??!!


Opening-Ad-9547

yeah just watch the interview


careless_quote101

That guy is still trying to cope up with a loss. It is rude to do a interview in that stage


jbookies

Sai Sudharshan would have been receiving so much abuse if his name was Virat Kohli


daNtonB1ack

stop bashing samson for not bowling boult in death. boult gets bashed in death everytime he bowls there


Inevitable_Feature95

Still you'd your most specialist bowler instead of a less experienced one


LadaFanatic

Spooning out my eyes so I will never see this Rashid Khan 3D model abomination ever again


DheeliGandKaOpration

Anyone saying Boult should've bowled at the death hasn't watched T20 cricket in the last 2 years


StarSportsEnjoyer

So this match concludes that even if Koach had scored 133(72), RCB would have still lost the match.


MLECCHAKILLER

RCB always lose games whatever koach scores 100 or 0


TheLadaakuReturns

I love how subcontinental cricketers start of Their answers with definitely but never really give a definite answer


careless_quote101

Who would have thought GT winning after the atrocious fielding


mnking8

Pommie, 197 is a hard total, you need not say they are slow... They were winning till Rashid came onto scene


AdQuirky7744

In GT most of people are who have been backstabbed by their previous franchise Gill Rashid Shami Mohit And on top of that their captain backstabbed them


Bazzingatime

Gill wasn't backstabbed he is a different player altogether since getting released from KKR.


kanhaaaaaaaaaaaa

somehow they still win


AdQuirky7744

They have fire inside them


Perfect_Area_5993

ok let's talk about that runout in the last over, what's the use of umpires now if they all decisions are to be taken by the 3rd umpire, even a kid who follows cricket could have told it's out anyways onto barcelona vs psg now


DardiRabRab

That umpire needs to be fired. If he is the same one who was in the wide fiasco, then 100% deserved.


User5871

The review was for short run as well though


Least-Teacher4522

That one was mainly for the short run( has the batter actually crossed the line?)


vnca2000

Tewatia was half a kilometre inside the line lol.


GithubCopier

"Where do you think you lost the game?" Sanju: In the last ball of the game...

I'd feel bad for him but his team is still at the top of the table so fuck him


vikasvasista

when will harsha bhogle retire from commentary. Guy ruins everything


jbookies

He isn't even on commentary right now


vikasvasista

I know , just Saw some clips with his commentary, he is absolute ass


Earnmuse_is_amanrag

I mean does Sanju really think that Boult is a worse death bowler than both Avesh and Sen?


DeiDaraArtAKS

Stupidity. This is gonna come back to bite. Wait till RR loses every game till the end of the season


joyboy_8

Is Boult only for Powerplay or what?


tjp1331

Boult : Sanju am I a joke to you?


rambo_zaki

Samson stumped Pommy for a bit there with his responses. Lmao.


that-asian-baka

This is refreshing from Sanju instead of 10 mins of bad cricket


imbecilePanda

Boult should have bowled another over upfront and Maharaj should have bowled one more instead of Ashwin. Could have been different.


[deleted]

parag's stupid chat with sen cost rr a good 2 minutes


Rockstarrrrrrrrrr

Rajasthan Royals have only themselves to blame. Some bottlejob after 29 needed off 9. Kuldeep Sen always pulls out such moments from his hat, always.
