Gujarat Titans pulled off another memorable heist as they scored 22 runs in the final over to beat the Sunrisers Hyderabad by five wickets at the Wankhede Stadium on Wednesday.

IPL 2022: ‘Simply incredible’, Twitter explodes as Gujarat Titans script nail-biting win against SRH

Batting first, Sunrisers Hyderabad set a daunting target of 196 and while the chase lost steam, Rahul Tewatia and Rashid Khan kept smoking sixes to get over the line in the final ball with a six over deep fine leg.

Khan and Tewatia hit four sixes between them in the last six balls to not only change the game but win it and consolidate Gujarat’s position at the top of the points table.

Gujarat Titans got off to a bright start as Wriddhiman Saha got going from the start and kept his side in the hunt with a 38-ball 68. The other star of this match was pacer Umran Malik, who has been impressive with each passing day.

With fiery pace, attacking fields and immaculate control, he sliced through Gujarat’s top and middle order. He accounted for Shubman Gill, captain Hardik Pandya, Wriddhiman Saha, David Miller and Abhinav Manohar.

Earlier in the day, Hardik Pandya won the toss and elected to field first. Young opener Abhishek Sharma was in good form and he found good support in Aiden Markram. The duo added 96 runs for the third wicket. Sharma went after Rashid Khan and in a rather rare occurrence, the leggie conceded 45 runs in his allotted quota of 4 overs.

The finishing touch to this innings was given by Shashank Singh who smashed a hat-trick of sixes to hit Lockie Ferguson to end the innings and remain unbeaten on 25 runs off just six deliveries.

Here is how Twitter reacted to this thrilling match:

Graeme Swann was lost for breath.

Yuvraj Singh was all praise for Rashid Khan.

Kris Srikkanth called the chase “simply incredible”.

  Harbhajan Singh was all pumped for Rashid Khan.

Anjum Chopra was delighted with Umran Malik.

The court, generally, considers a person who commit a crime and the one who destroys the evidence, as criminals in the eyes of law. But what if an animal destroys the evidence of a crime committed by a human.

In a peculiar incident in Rajasthan, a monkey fled away with the evidence collected by the police in a murder case. The stolen evidence included the murder weapon (a blood-stained knife).

The incident came to light when the police appeared before the court and they had to provide the evidence in the hearing.

The hearing was about the crime which took place in September 2016, in which a person named Shashikant Sharma died at a primary health center under Chandwaji police station. After the body was found, the deceased’s relatives blocked the Jaipur-Delhi highway, demanding an inquiry into the matter.

Following the investigation, the police had arrested Rahul Kandera and Mohanlal Kandera, residents of Chandwaji in relation to the murder. But, when the time came to produce the evidence related to the case, it was found that the police had no evidence with them because a monkey had stolen it from them.

In the court, the police said that the knife, which was the primary evidence, was also taken by the monkey. The cops informed that the evidence of the case was kept in a bag, which was being taken to the court.

The evidence bag contained the knife and 15 other important evidences. However, due to the lack of space in the malkhana, a bag full of evidence was kept under a tree, which led to the incident.
