Rituraj’s misfortune! Namushki came as a victim of the nervous nineties

Chennai Super Kings opener Rituraj Gaikwad shined in the very first match of the Indian Premier League 2023 tournament. Rituraj batted powerfully in this match and won the honor of completing the first half-century in IPL 2023. He fell victim to the nervous nineties in his attempt to complete his first century in the sixteenth season of the IPL. It was the second time in his IPL career that he was dismissed in the Nervous Nineties.

In this match played at Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad, Gujarat Titans captain Hardik Pandya won the toss and invited Chennai to bat. Chennai got off to a bad start this time. The team got their first blow in the form of Devon Conway on 14 runs. However, opener Ruturaj Gaikwad completed a whirlwind half-century fighting the team’s gap from one side.

He reached this milestone in just 23 balls. He also hit 3 fours and 5 sixes. Even after half a century, his bat has not cooled down. He continued to attack the opposition bowlers and increased the team’s runs. He scored 92 runs in 50 balls before being dismissed. This included 4 fours and 9 sixes. Rituraj was another victim of the nervous nineties in his career.

Rituraj had previously failed to score a century last year. He scored 99 off 57 balls against Sunrisers Hyderabad with the help of 6 fours and 6 sixes.
