‌RCB vs GT | Twitter concerned as Kohli injures his finger amidst rare fielding botch 

Electing to field first, the Titans bowlers backed captain Shubman Gill’s decision to field first by fetching three wickets inside the powerplay. Despite struggling with the bat, Liam Livingstone’s fifty, coupled with Jitesh Sharma’s 33 and Tim David’s 32, propelled the Bengaluru side to 169/7 in 20 overs. In reply, the RCB bowlers failed to penetrate the GT batting order in the second innings, despite Shubman Gill’s wicket inside the powerplay. Moreover, a fielding miss from Kohli in the twelfth over. 

Krunal Pandya bowled a short of a length ball outside the stumps on the fifth ball of the twelfth over against Sudharsan. The Tamil Nadu batter rocked back and pulled it towards deep mid-wicket, where Kohli was fielding. The batter failed to judge the bounce of the white cork and incurred an injury while trying to collect it. The ball kissed his finger and breezed towards the ropes for a four. The Indian stalwart was seen grimacing in pain at the edge of the boundary ropes and even an umpire visited him to check, prompting a Twitterverse frenzy.
