"I DO NOT UNDERSTAND": SUNIL GAVASKAR QUESTIONS KL RAHUL'S CELEBRATION STYLE - DETAILS!
Home > News Shots > SportsThe Gujarat Titans and Lucknow Super Giants, the newcomers to the current IPL series, are currently at the top of the points table.
The Gujarat Titans, led by Hardik Pandya, have won five of their last six matches and are top of the points table.
Following this, the Lucknow Super Giants, led by KL Rahul, are fourth with four wins from six matches (the list may change depending on the team winning today (18.04.2022)).
As both teams look stronger, they are becoming a nightmare for their opponents. Rahul, who has captained the Punjab Kings for the past few seasons, has been widely criticized for his captaincy.
Subsequently, to free him from the Punjab team, the newly formed Lucknow team bought KL Rahul for Rs 17 crore before the auction and appointed him as captain. Rahul, who has been leading the team well this time around, is also doing well in batting.
In the 6 matches he has played so far, he has scored a total of 235 runs with a century and a half. In particular, in the match against the Mumbai Indians, Audi, who was in action from the start, was widely praised for his innings, which was unbeaten on hundreds.
In this context, Sunil Gavaskar has some comments on how Rahul celebrated it after the centenary. After Rahul scored a century, he covered his ears and quietly celebrated the century with his eyes closed. Speaking on the occasion, Sunil Gavaskar said, "“He is shutting down the noise when he is got a hundred you want take the applause. He should do this when he has scored four, five, six runs but when you got a hundred take it out enjoy the applause everybody is applauding you, ” Gavaskar said in a conversation with official broadcaster during the mid-innings break."
“I do not understand, let all the applause come through, not shut it out, you shut it out when you get out on zero, one, two, three, four or something like that’s when you put your fingers in ears,” Gavaskar added while doing commentary during the second innings.
