Rahul Teotia And David Miller Gujarat Titans once again chased down the target in the ongoing IPL 2022 season, registering their eighth win in nine matches. Tewatia in particular has been making a name for finishing things when the team’s back has been against the wall. And yet the left-hander produced the goods as GT beat Royal Challengers Bangalore by six wickets on Saturday. With GT on the backfoot at 95 for four in 12.5 overs, Miller and Tewatia shared an unbeaten 79 off just 40 balls. For RCB, the bowlers once again failed to live up to the expectations in a crisis situation and the team had to pay the price.
mohammed sirajiWho was retained by RCB ahead of the IPL mega auction, was once again taken for runs and was disappointing with his line and length despite taking two wickets.
A lot was expected from the fast bowler, but he has not lived up to the expectations so far this season. He has taken eight wickets in 10 matches, but his economy rate of 9.39 is just too terrible for a bowler of his ability.
In the 13th over of Gujarat’s chase, Siraj fell on the pads of Tewatia who hit him for a four. Siraj’s delivery left Simon Dole and Matthew Hayden Scratching his head.
Talking about the delivery, Hayden said that an under-12 cricketer would hit a boundary.
The former Australian opener said, “One of the limitations we are talking about is the small part of the field. An under-12 cricketer could play it off the field.”
The former New Zealand pacer in particular criticized the delivery.
“Some mindless cricket. I must say, I’ve seen it in the last few overs of our commentary box. Use the big size of the field, speed it up, go across the left-handers, stop bowling that middle, middle And help yourself down the leg stump line and into the short side boundary stuff,” Dole said in the air.
Over the next few balls, Siraj finally managed to fix his radar, and did exactly what Dole asked for in the com box.

“Thanks. Two balls in a row,” the New Zealander expressed relief.
The defeat left RCB in a precarious position. They are still fifth on the IPL points table, but have played two games more than sixth-placed Delhi Capitals and one game more than seventh-placed Punjab Kings, both of which have eight points – only two more than RCB. Points back.
