Former India cricketer Irfan Pathan was all praise for the Gujarat Titans as they registered a convincing win against the Rajasthan Royals on Friday, May 5 at the Sawai Mansingh Stadium, Jaipur. They chased down 119 runs comfortably, with more than two overs to spare. The Hardik Pandya-led team retained their first place in the points table with fourteen points in the 2023 Indian Premier League

The Gujarat Titans had suffered a three wickets loss against the Rajasthan Royals in their earlier encounter in the tournament. However, with a nine-wicket win, they have settled the score with the Rajasthan Royals. Former cricketer, Irfan Pathan expressed that if one wants to take revenge in the tournament, it should be like Gujarat Titans.

During a post-match discussion on Star Sports, Irfan Pathan said,

“What a revenge they took – it was resounding. If you have to take revenge, do it like this, that you defeat them by nine wickets. It was seen today. When Yashasvi Jaiswal got run out, the game was virtually over because he was the only batter who was driving the game.”

“After that also, they didn’t give Rajasthan any chance (to come back into the game). Rashid Khan also took revenge because he was hit a lot in the last match. He came with a feeling of revenge, he conceded 45-46 runs in the last match between the two teams. So he didn’t leave them today,” he added.

Noor Ahmad bowled splendidly: Irfan Pathan

Spinners Noor Ahmad and Rashid Khan played a vital role in Gujarat Titans’ win against the Rajasthan Royals in the 2023 Indian Premier League. Rashid Khan took three wickets in the match, while Noor Ahmad picked up two wickets. So far, Noor has taken ten wickets in six matches in the Indian Premier League. Talking about the spinner, Irfan Pathan said,

“Noor Ahmad also bowled splendidly. There is one thing for sure – in the eight overs of spin they will bowl, most of the bowling will be on the stumps, you will see batters getting lbw and bowled, you will see their mystery and it will be very difficult to pick them.”
