Bizarre scenes between GT vs RR in Qualifier 2 leave fans stunned
At the time of the toss, Gujarat Titans captain Shubman Gill came along with Rajasthan Royals captain Riyan Parag. The Rajasthan Royals captain won the toss in the second attempt after a big mistake by referee Prakash Bhatt.
The ref said he did not hear the call and Gujarat Titans winning the toss went in vain at the first attempt. In the second attempt, Rajasthan Royals captain Riyan Parag won the toss and decided to bat first.
One would have opted to bat first at the venue and on the same pitch that had produced a flurry of runs the last time the two teams met at this venue.
