In a recent analysis, former Indian cricketer Virender Sehwag expressed his disappointment with Gujarat Titans captain Shubman Gill's leadership during a match against Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB). With RCB needing 22 runs off the final two overs, Gill's decision to hand the ball to Manav Suthar instead of utilizing Mohammed Siraj was criticized. Sehwag noted that Siraj had performed well earlier in the match, and his absence in the critical overs could have changed the outcome. Despite RCB's strong batting performance led by Virat Kohli and Devdutt Padikkal, who scored freely, the Titans failed to maintain their lead. Sehwag emphasized that a captain must have the courage to trust their best bowlers, even after they have faced challenges, stating that Gill's choices reflected a lack of confidence in his team's capabilities.
