Rahul Tewatia hurts Punjab Kings again in IPL
Rahul Tewatia hurts Punjab Kings again in IPL; Gujarat batsman hammers 6 in last two balls to win match. Rahul Tewatia did it again. Yes, He Did it again against Punjab. once again, Rahul Tewatia did it again against Punjab Kings. The IPL 2022 match between Gujarat Titans and PBKS was all about deja vu on a tense Friday night (April 8).
Gujarat Titans needed 19 runs off the last over with Hardik Pandya and David Miller at crease, and West Indian Odean Smith was entrusted with the task of bowling the 20th over for PBKS.
The left-hander moved across and slog swept Smith over deep mid-wicket for a six, the fielder there tried to push the ball inside the line but his acrobatics were in vein. The final ball then. The Titans needed 6 runs. Smith again attempted that wide ball outside the off-stump, but Tewatia seemed to have read the mind of the bowler and was in position to play the slog sweep.
In IPL 2020, Tewatia, then playing for Rajasthan Royals, had struck 5 sixes in a row off Punjab pacer Sheldon Cottrell, incidentally from the West Indies just like Smith, to turn the match over its head in a tall run chase.
Its unexpected repetition!
