In the 16th season of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2023, the match between the Rajasthan Royals (RR) and the Gujarat Titans (GT) on Friday, May 5, was very boring for fans. Everyone expected to see a tough fight between Rajasthan and Gujarat, but the team led by Sanju Samson were condemned by the GT bowlers and restricted to just 118 runs.
During their innings, the Royals' dashing fast bowler Trent Boult hit a six which had a hard effect on someone outside the field of play. Not a player, or a fan, but a cameraman got injured. Rashid Khan, who was fielding for GT, immediately jumped the boundary rope and went to inquire about the condition of the cameraman. This video is becoming increasingly viral on social media.
Cameraman hurt by Bolt's six
When Trent Boult came to bat, he played shots freely as wickets fell around him. This included a six and a four. He played an innings of 15 runs in 11 balls. But in the meantime, a six from Boult hit the cameraman outside the ground directly. He could not save himself from one six.
However, as soon as the cameraman got hurt, Rashid Khan, who was fielding at the boundary, immediately jumped over the hoarding to see if the cameraman was fine. At the same time, GT's physios were also seen taking stock of his injury.
Strong victory of GT
However, the best part was that the ball did not hit the cameraman's head as a major accident was averted. The cameraman stood back and started working a few minutes after the ball was hit. After this, the Rajasthan team could only score 118 runs in 17.5 overs.
In response, GT batted strongly and ended the chase by scoring 119 runs for one wicket in 13.5 overs. For Gujarat, Wriddhiman Saha scored 41 runs in 34 balls with 5 fours to his name, while Hardik Pandya returned unbeaten after scoring 39 runs in 15 balls with three fours and three sixes. Only Yuzvendra Chahal could take the only wicket for Rajasthan.
