Jaipur . In the IPL, on Wednesday, Gujarat Titans, captained by Shubman Gill, defeated Rajasthan Royals in the last ball at home, stopping the victory march of ‘Sanju Ki Sena’. This defeat is also difficult for RR to digest because the team lost the game it had won in the last moments.

A very exciting match was played between Gujarat Titans and Rajasthan Royals in Jaipur. Rain disrupted the match several times, but the excitement of the match did not diminish.

Thanks to the stormy innings of Sanju Samson and Riyan Parag, RR had set the target of 197 runs in this match. It seemed that defending this total was not a very difficult task for Rajasthan.

However, Gujarat made a great start in chasing this target. Shubman Gill and Sai Sudarshan made an opening partnership of 64 runs, but due to the early return of the middle order to the pavilion, Rajasthan made a comeback in the match.

Fast bowlers Kuldeep Sen and Chahal had put Gujarat on the back foot by taking back to back wickets. There came a time when Gujarat needed 35 runs in just 2 overs. At this time Rahul Tewatia and Rashid Khan were present at the crease, so the outcome of the match could have been anything. True to their name and work, both the batsmen pacified the RR home crowd with their stormy batting.

Rahul Tewatia and Rashid Khan snatched victory from the jaws of Rajasthan. Rahul scored 22 runs on 11 balls and Rashid scored 24 not out on 11 balls to lead the team to victory.

Now the question is whether Rajasthan is a strong contender for the trophy this time, or is the now number one team in the tournament repeating its old mistake, because RR has lost the game it had won against Gujarat.

Some fans present in the stadium also believed that Rajasthan, the table topper in the tournament, is only the lion at home.

During the conversation with the IANS team, the spectators who came to watch the match definitely had confidence in their team, but their expectations about their team were still low.

A young fan told IANS, “This time the IPL trophy will come to Rajasthan, while some other fans believed that Rajasthan will have to work a little harder to become IPL champion once again because till now the matches have been held on home ground. Their real test will be when the team goes out.”

In this win-loss situation, no matter which team the fans present in the stadium were supporting, everyone was happy with the performance of Riyan Parag.

Speaking with IANS, a fan said, “Ryan Parag can be a ‘game changer’ for Rajasthan this season and if the team is eyeing a trophy, then Ryan will be the biggest ‘instigator’ of this series. With this defeat Rajasthan is at number 1 in the points table with 4 wins and one loss in 5 matches, while Gujarat is at number 6 with 3 wins and 3 losses in 6 matches.
