After winning the toss, Hardik decided to bowl first and his bowlers didn’t disappoint as LSG were reeling at 29/4 at one stage. However, Deepak Hooda and Ayush Badoni scored the fifties to take LSG to a respectable total of 158/6.
Gujarat is chasing 159 against Lucknow Super Giants. Earlier, who would have thought that Lucknow Super Giants would post a score of more than the 150-run mark after being 29/4 inside the first six overs against Gujarat Titans in the fourth game of the Indian Premier League at the Wankhede Stadium on Monday. However, Deepak Hooda and Ayush Badoni rose to the challenge and both batters scored fifties to help KL Rahul’s side post 158/6 in the 20 overs.
Hooda departed after scoring 55 while Badoni played a knock of 54. Earlier, Mohammed Shami wreaked havoc for the Gujarat Titans as he dismantled the Lucknow Super Giants top-order. The pacer dismissed KL Rahul, Quinton de Kock, and Manish Pandey. Varun Aaron also chipped in with a wicket of Evin Lewis and Gujarat lost four wickets inside the powerplay.
Krunal Pandya and Deepak Hooda were involved in a heated argument before the domestic tournament as both were part of the team baroda. Deepak complained officially to the state board and as a result, he pulled out of the season. During the match, when Hooda was playing camera was panned multiple times at Krunal Pandya.
Krunal was seen clapping and cheering for Hooda. His reactions to the boundaries resulted in a lot of memes on social media. The netizens were surprised to see Pandya’s reaction.

Petition for the cameraman to focus on Hooda's face to see if he's staring at Krunal after every shot.
