Watch: 5 runs off one ball! Nehra fumes over costly overthrow by Gill

Gujarat Titans head coach Ashish Nehra was left visibly frustrated after a costly overthrow during Delhi Capitals’ tense chase, which eventually saw GT scrape through with a narrow one-run victory at the Arun Jaitley Stadium. At one stage, with KL Rahul at the crease, the match appeared to be firmly in Delhi Capitals’ control. However, a crucial moment in the 15th over turned the tide and drew a strong reaction from the GT dugout.During the 15th over, bowled by Ashok Sharma, a well-executed yorker was dug out by Tristan Stubbs towards the left of the bowler. Ashok managed to get a hand to the ball but failed to stop it cleanly, allowing the batters to attempt a quick single. Shubman Gill quickly collected the ball and fired a direct hit at the striker’s end. Although KL Rahul had made his ground, the deflection off the stumps resulted in the ball racing away to the boundary, gifting Delhi Capitals four additional runs, turning a single into five runs.The incident visibly angered Ashish Nehra, who was seen reacting sharply from the sidelines. His animated response quickly went viral on social media, highlighting the importance of small moments in a closely fought contest. With the game hanging in the balance, such lapses in field awareness, particularly the absence of proper backup, could have significantly altered the outcome for Gujarat Titans.
