In the ongoing match between RCB and GT at the Chinnaswamy Stadium, RCB spinner Suyyash Sharma dismissed GT captain Shubman Gill and mocked him by copying his celebration technique.
This season, RCB have been given strength by their bowlers and one such example was seen when Suyyash Sharma had the courage to make fun of a player of Shubman Gill’s caliber. RCB has always been known for its character, and this appears to have spread from Indian great Virat Kohli to everyone in the dressing room.
Suyyash Sharma made fun of Shubman Gill by imitating him.
Shubman Gill opened the innings with Sai Sudarshan, and with the left-hander taking most of the strikes, the Indian star decided to play the anchoring role with a slow-paced inning of 32 runs. However, he took care to clean the fence from time to time.
Shubman got a flighted ball from Suyyash Sharma and tried to drill it down the leg side, but holed out in the deep. When Gill got out, Suyyash made fun of him by imitating his celebration.
The spinner bowed and gave the sendoff to Gill. This departure was a replica of Shubman Gill’s trademark celebration, which has been seen several times in both GT and Indian colours.
Shubman Gill’s 128-run partnership for the first wicket with Sai Sudarshan gave a steady start to GT.
Shubman Gill opened the innings with Sai Sudarshan in an attempt to give a strong start for the team after a very poor performance with the bat in their last game at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad.
Sai Sudarshan played a brilliant innings playing mostly the attacking role; However, on the other hand, Shubman Gill persisted in trying to bring stability to the innings. With some smart scoring from both the batsmen, Titans had 128 runs on the board before Gill was out.
Shubman was out after the Titans openers made the biggest partnership ever against Royal Challengers Bangalore. This partnership also set the stage for a big score.
Will a GT win today take them into the top 4?
This season has been an up and down one for Gujarat Titans, as they have managed to win some great games, including a one-run win against Delhi Capitals, while they also lost a very close game to Rajasthan Royals.
After winning three matches and losing the same number of games, if they manage to win this game against the Challengers, they will have eight points after 7 matches, the same as Sunrisers Hyderabad and Royal Challengers.
Despite this, they were unable to advance into the top 4 spots due to their poor net run rate, dealing another blow to their previous defeat to Mumbai Indians. However, the points table will open further, as three teams will have equal points after the same number of games.
