Last night’s matchup between Gujarat Titans and Rajasthan Royals was one of the most highly anticipated IPL 2022 matches yet. GT and RR have undoubtedly proven to be the two strongest squads in IPL 2022 so far and fans were very excited to see which of the two teams would end up victorious in a matchup. Well, they got the answer last night as Hardik Pandya’s Gujarat Titans registered an easy win over Sanju Samson’s Rajasthan Royals and they dominated the Royals in every aspect of the match.
Gujarat Titans captain Hardik Pandya was undoubtedly the best performer of the match between GT and RR and many fans are of the opinion that he is finally back in his old form and he has finally overcome his injury which had hindered his performance for the past couple of years. Hardik Pandya played an unbelievable knock of 87* off 52 and he also picked up 1 wicket in his second innings.
However, the fans noticed a very hilarious incident regarding Hardik Pandya’s bowling in the second innings and it has become viral in no time. In the middle of his bowling, Hardik Pandya was seen taking the help of his teammates to measure his runup distance using a tape. We usually see bowlers and teams doing it prior to the kickoff of an innings but measuring the run-up in the middle of a match is very rare and IPL fans got to see it courtesy of Hardik Pandya in last night’s match.
