All-rounder Rahul Tewatia once again displayed his masterclass against Punjab Kings (PBKS) but this time, he did wonders for Gujarat Titans (GT). With 12 runs needed off the last two balls, he smashed two sixes to seal a six-wicket win for his team at the Brabourne Stadium. Had Odeon Smith not bowled a single delivery in his overthrow off the third-last ball, the equation would have been different for Punjab. However, it was a great game of cricket and as Mayank Agarwal put it, “It may be bitter to swallow but that’s okay.”
