Tempers flared during the Eliminator match between West Delhi Lions and South Delhi Superstarz. Nitish Rana mocked spinner Digvesh Rathi’s signature notebook celebration after hitting him for a six. Rathi reacted angrily, leading to a heated exchange on the field. Both players were seen shouting at each other.
However, Nitish Rana chose not to escalate the issue in his post-match comments. Rana stated that he would never back down if provoked, but refrained from directly blaming Rathi.
“I just want to say one thing, in our beloved sport, if a bowler does something, if he emerges as a character, we are not willing to accept that. Maybe in the case of this fight between Nitish Rana and Rathi, the fault would lie with the spinner. But the respect for Rana has grown in my eyes,” said Ashwin on his YouTube channel ‘Ash Ki Baat’.
