IPL 2020: ‘A player is missing’ – Why did Ambati Rayudu delay the RCB vs CSK match? – cricket


The 2020 Indian Premier League match between the Royal Challengers Bangalore led by Virat Kohli and the Chennai Super Kings led by MS Dhoni turned out to be a rather one-sided duel. Chennai chased the target with eight wickets and eight balls to spare. Ruturaj Gaikwad was instrumental in this victory with a 65-run winning shot. He found a good ally in Ambati Rayudu, who hit back in shape with 39 hits on 27 balls. (Total IPL Coverage 2020)

An interesting incident occurred when Rayudu looked solid to lead his team to the other end of the line. He was missing from the ground after the second strategic time-out during Chennai innings. After the 2:30 minute break, all players were ready to resume play, but Rayudu was nowhere to be seen. The match was further delayed for two more minutes before he finally walked out of the locker room.

According to a report by Wisden India, the commentators described the moment and said: “We have a missing player, that’s what he is. We don’t have Ambati Rayudu. He had left the field, we assumed to go to the bathroom. “

“Yeah, upset stomach, I think. It is time, but there is still no sign of it, ”commenters added.

Rayudu ran back onto the field to resume his tackles and was seen apologizing to RCB goalkeeper AB de Villiers for the delay. Then the two of them indulged in conversation and laughter.

“They are laughing at that, right? I think everyone knows what happened! Poor Ambati Rayudu, I think now everyone knows, ”commenters added.

Rayudu couldn’t spend any more time in the middle as he was sent off at the third ball after the break. Yuzvendra Chahal cleared it on 14 to give RCB his second breakthrough of the day, but it was too late.

MS Dhoni reached number four and remained undefeated during his 19-run 20-ball innings. Gaikwad finished the game on Chris Morris’s six in the 19th over. CSK will face the Kolkata Knight Riders on Thursday.
