Post-match, Wriddhiman Saha had some explanation to do about the trousers. “In a rush, I wore the trousers the other way. The needling session was also on. The Physio told me to take medicine.”
The incident happened during Lucknow Super Giants innings. The umpires did not allow the substitution of Saha with KS Bharat as Gujarat Titans wicketkeeper as Gill was also also being subbed in place of impact sub Alzarri Joseph. So Saha had to rush into the field and many players were seen having a laugh after seeing Saha wearing trousers the other way.
Saha hit a 81 off 43 balls, after clinching his fifty in 20 balls. Saha has scored 273 runs in IPL 2023 with an average of 27.30 in 11 matches and a strike rate of 137.19. This was his first half-century in the ongoing tournament. Shubman Gill top-scored for his team, playing a blistering knock of 94.

For Gujarat Titans , Mohit Sharma was the pick of bowlers, with a spell of 4/29 in four overs while Rashid, Noor, and Shami got one wicket each.
Gujarat Titans’ star batter Shubman Gill said that he is keen to learn from Wriddhiman Saha’s vast experience. “Just to be able to share his (Saha) experience, I stand next to him at slip, it is phenomenal with the way he keeps going. He’s been playing since the first IPL season,” Gill said after the match.
“I didn’t get much to bat in the first few overs but it is important to not get carried away with what your partner is doing. I had not hit sixes in the last two matches and today I struck a few, I always keep working on my skills,” he added.
