KKR vs RCB: The ninth match of IPL is being played between Kolkata Knight Riders and Royal Challengers Bangalore. In this match, RCB captain Faf decided to bowl first after winning the toss, but at the time of the toss, an incident happened which rarely happens in cricket.
In fact, during the toss, KKR captain Nitish Rana tossed the coin and Faf made a head call, but the match referee felt that Faf had called the tail, and told Sanjay Manjrekar, who was hosting the toss, that Nitish Rana had won the toss. But then Faf told the match referee that he had spoken head. After that Faf i.e. RCB was declared the winner of the toss. During this, disappointment was also seen on the face of KKR captain Nitish Rana that the match referee had declared him the winner of the toss but that decision was changed.
Nitish Rana got angry during the toss
However, when Sanjay Manjrekar asked Nitish Rana whether he was happy with this decision, Nitish Rana did not object. In this way, RCB won the toss in a fun way in this match and invited KKR to bat first. RCB bowled very well in the beginning and dismissed 3 KKR batsmen for just 47 runs.
From KKR, Venkatesh Iyer 3 runs, Mandeep Singh 0, captain Nitish Rana only 1, and Andre Russell went back to the pavilion after being dismissed for zero runs. For KKR, Afghan opener Rahmullah Gurbaz played an inning of 57 runs in 44 balls, but all the wickets of KKR were falling from the other end and then Shardul Thakur’s storm came. By playing an inning of 68 runs in just 29 balls, he took the team’s score to 204 in 20 overs. Rinku Singh also supported him well by playing an inning of 46 runs in 33 balls. Now it has to be seen whether RCB can chase this target or not.
