Rituraj Gaikwad played a fine innings (PC: iplt20)
New Delhi. IPL 2023 Qualifier 1 match between Gujarat and Chennai started barely 5 minutes when there was a lot of drama on one ball. Rituraj Gaikwad was first caught out on the same ball, then he also hit a six on the same ball. Means he got out on the same ball and he also hit a six on the same ball, but how did this happen? Actually, after winning the toss, the team of Gujarat Titans came out to bowl first. Rituraj Gaikwad and Devon Conway started the innings for Chennai.
Gujarat fast bowler Darshan Nalkande, playing his first match this season, came on the attack in the second over. On the first ball of his over, Conway took a single and gave strike to Gaikwad. The next ball was a dot and then there was a lot of drama on the third ball of his over.

first joy, then sorrow
On the third ball of Nalkande’s over, Gaikwad played a shot towards mid-wicket, where Gill took his catch. Nalkande, Gill and Captain Hardik Pandya all started celebrating, but then the siren of danger rang and in a moment the happy face turned sad. The ball on which Gaikwad was dismissed was a no ball. Nalkande’s leg was quite outside.
