IPL 2024, CSK vs GT: Shubman Gill produces Oops moment at toss, changes decision to bowl due confusion - WATCH
The Indian Premier League (IPL) on Tuesday witnessed a hilarious moment on Tuesday (Mar 26) as captain Shubman Gill failed to make the right call at the toss in the high-voltage encounter between Chennai Super Kings (CSK) and Gujarat Titans (GT). Considered as a blockbuster match in the current season of the IPL, Gill shared a moment where he was seen confused and had no idea what to do when he won the toss.
What was the oops moment for Gill?
Coming out for the toss alongside Ruturaj Gaikwad, Gill was confident with his team and wanted to make a statement in their first away match of the season. They narrowly beat Mumbai Indians on Sunday in their opening match. However, at the toss when he called right on Ruturaj’s spin of coin commentator and stadium announcer at that time Sanjay Manjrekar asked Gill about his decision on winning the toss.
Looking confident, GT captain Gill decided to bat first, however, he quickly changed his decision in a state of confusion and opted to bowl. This left the crowd, match referee and Majnrekar confused. Upon a deep breath though, Gill decided to take the field first and handed the batting initiative to CSK. A couple of minutes had seen Gill being on the embarrassing end of laughter, failing to recall his pre-meditated call for winning the toss.
