Wriddhiman Saha GT vs LSG IPL 2023

The important news coming from the ongoing Gujarat Titans (GT) vs Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) encounter of the Indian Premier League (IPL 2023) season taking place at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad is that wicket-keeper batsman Wriddhiman Saha has left the field. While batting first at home, the Gujarat Titans have posted a massive total of 227 for 2 in their quota of 20 overs.

GT vs LSG: Why is Wriddhiman Saha Not Keeping wickets in Today IPL 2023 Match? Who is GT Wicket Keeper?

Interestingly, Gujarat Titans senior wicket-keeper batsman Wriddhiman Saha has left the field during the run-chase of the ongoing GT vs LSG match. It looks like that the wicket-keeper batsman is currently injured which is why KS Bharat has been drafted as the substitute wicket-keeper in the Gujarat Titans playing 11. On the other hand, Saha looked in an exceptional form during the first innings as he smashed a remarkable knock of 81 runs off only 43 balls that included 10 fours and 4 sixes. He also stitched a fabulous opening partnership of 142 runs in just 12.1 overs alongside Shubman Gill.

During the run-chase, Saha surprisingly came out wearing his trousers incorrectly and still kept wickets for the first two overs. After the opening two overs, he went out back in the dressing room and KS Bharat came out as the substitute wicket-keeper for the remainder of the match. Bharat has not played a single match in the ongoing Indian Premier League 2023 season so far and it will be a big challenge for him to straightaway keep wickets especially against the Afghanistan spin duo of Rashid Khan and Noor Ahmad.
