As the match went on till the last over, Bangalore finally won and advanced to the second qualifier.

Young Player Action

Earlier, in a match between Lucknow and Bangalore, the Bangalore team was batting first. With Du Plessis, Kohli and Maxwell out in succession, the Bangalore team stumbled a bit. Rajat Patidar, on the other hand, was the lone batsman to score 112 off 54 balls. Thus, the Bangalore team had scored 207 runs.

Subsequently, the Lucknow team scored only 192 runs with a target of 208 to win. Bangalore won by 14 runs and advanced to the next round. While the Lucknow team had a chance to win, some of the mistakes they made were to their detriment.

Missed opportunity

In particular, the Lucknow team missed the easy catch opportunities of players including Rajat Patidar and Dinesh Karthik. This was a turning point for the Bangalore team to accumulate runs. In this case, one of the reactions given by Gambhir when the Bangalore team was batting is now becoming more viral.

Serious disappointment

Dinesh Karthik, who formed a good partnership with Rajat Patidar till the last, had scored 37 runs. Earlier, when he had scored 2 off 6 balls, a good one-c catch opportunity went into Rahul’s hands. The ball bounced off Rahul's hand as he tried to dive to catch the ball. Rahul was a bit disappointed as he missed the opportunity.

But Gautam Gambhir, the Lucknow team's adviser who was watching from the outside, was at first very excited to think that Rahul would catch the ball. After that, the moment he missed, his face changed completely.

Gautam Gambhir's reactions, which changed from happiness to despair in an instant, are now becoming more viral.
