IPL 2021: Ruturaj Gaikwad hits his first century for Chennai Super Kings and himself in his IPL career. CSK wasn’t able to bat perfectly in the last battle against RR. But they were able to set a good target on that pitch with the special contribution of Ruturaj Gaikwad in the match. He hits the last ball of the innings for the six and completed his century in absolute style.
Ruturaj Gaikwad Finished In Style
That was his 53rd T20 match and his lucky day in the field. He would have worked so hard to get to where he’s now…Ruturaj brilliantly played his shots in full control.
And during his 47th match of the ongoing 14th season of IPL between Rajasthan Royals and Chennai Super Kings in Abu Dhabi. The match was a total drama but it didn’t affect this 24-year-old young man. And he played with such a good strike rate that even bowlers from the other side were under pressure. Although, Rajasthan Royals did an amazing job with both bat and ball on the field.
And now Ruturaj has become the highest scorer in the ongoing Indian Premier league with an orange cap on his head.
Chennai wasn’t in control of their game against Rajasthan Royals in the first half and the second half. But they reached a strong and respectable total with the help of Ruturaj Gaikwad and Ravindra Jadeja for the innings build up.
Chennai Super Kings gave a target of 189 in the twenty over and Rajasthan Royals chased it down with dominance. It was slightly helpful with the bat in the second innings of the game with some dew on the field. But RR played handsomely and won the game in just 17 and a half overs. And in the post-match interview, Dhoni said that it was a bad toss to lose as batting first becomes harder on the pitch like that batted first. Although, the credit goes to the Rajasthan Royals who eventually won the game with absolute performance in both innings.
