Currently, in the 38th match of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2021, Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) and Chennai Super Kings (CSK) are locking horns with each other in Abu Dhabi. As usual Kolkata opener, Venkatesh Iyer and Shubman Gill started brilliantly, after taking two boundaries in the first two deliveries. However, after Shubman Gill mashed Deepak Chahar for consecutive boundaries, he was given out on the 5th delivery by the on-field umpire after CSK appealed for an LBW, however, a review helped him survive.

The replays showed that the ball was missing the leg stump and Gill was handed a lifeline. But unfortunately, he could not make the most of it as on the very next ball, he got run out. Despite serving after a brilliant DRS call, Shubman Gill was seen getting involved in a mix-up and a brilliant piece of fielding by Ambati Rayudu which ended up in a direct hit forced him to walk back into the pavilion.

Shubman Gill pushed a quick one from Chahar towards Ambati Rayudu at short mid-wicket, and he called for a quick run. Venkatesh Iyer, who was at the non-striker’s end, ran a few steps and then decided to stop, but Gill came way outside his crease.

As he turned around to make a return, Ambati Rayudu managed to hit the stumps, and the right-handed batsman was caught outside his crease. Gill had to return to the hut for just 9 runs as KKR suffered their first loss of wicket.
