Former Team India opener Virendra Sehwag questioned the GT captain Shubman Gill’s decision during the match. Bengaluru eventually won the match by 5 wickets and 7 balls to spare.
RCB needed 35 runs off the last five overs. In the 15th and 16th overs of the second innings, Bengaluru managed to score only 13 runs. GT still had the opportunity to retain the momentum. For the remaining three overs of the match, Gill had the experienced pacer, Mohammed Siraj.
Virender Sehwag is unhappy with Shubman Gill's bowling tactics
Virender Sehwag stated that if Gill asked Siraj to bowl in the high moment of the match, RCB would be under pressure as Siraj was in form and got a wicket as well in his first spell of the match. By handing the ball to a rather inexperienced bowler, Gill’s lack of courage and lack of experienced exposed.
“I think the calculations were slightly wrong from the captain there. Fine, Prasidh Krishna and Rashid Khan got hit for runs, but it is the captain's job to bring them back into the attack. If you think that you cannot use a bowler because he has conceded 31 runs off two overs, then you have lost courage, right? That means you have given up. I think that was the mistake there," he added.
Gill pointed out where they made the mistake
“I mean, at the end of the power play, I think we were in a good position. It was all about taking wickets in the middle overs, which I think we were not able to do just after the powerplay got over," GT captain Shubman Gill said in the post-match presentation.
