The Indian Premier League (IPL) ended with debutants Gujarat Titans hammering Rajasthan Royals by seven wickets in front of almost 105 000 fans at the world's biggest cricket stadium in Ahmedabad.
Rajasthan Royals spinner Yuzvendra Chahal held the Purple Cap in the 15th edition of the Indian Premier League (IPL). Chahal scalped a total of 27 wickets, at an average of 19.51 and an economy of 7.75 in 17 matches of IPL 2022.
Yuzvendra Chahal might not have ended up on the winners podium after Rajasthan Royals lost to Gujarat Titans in the IPL final but had a lot to be pleased about with his overall performance in the IPL 2022. The leg-spinner won the Purple Cap by taking a total of 27 wickets in IPL 2022. Going into the match, Chahal was in second position despite having taken the same number of wickets (26) as RCB's Wanindu Hasaranga. But by the virtue of a better economy rate, the Sri Lankan was heading the list. In the IPL final on Sunday, Chahal took one wicket to take the outright lead in the Purple Cap race. Chahal also surpassed Imran Tahir to become the spinner with most wickets in an IPL season.
Rajasthan Royals captain Sanju Samson won the toss and chose to bat against the Hardik Pandya-led Gujarat Titans in the final of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2022 in Ahmedabad on Sunday. Rajasthan are playing their first IPL final in 14 years while debutants Gujarat have made it to the title clash in their maiden season. GT and RR have been the two most consistent teams in the IPL 2022. GT finished the league stage at the top place with 10 wins while RR were the second-placed team in the league stage with nine wins.
Royal Challengers Bangalore batter Rajat Patidar expressed gratitude towards his former skipper Virat Kohli and called him his 'idol'. RCB's stint in IPL 2022 came to end after they lost in the Qualifier 2 match against Rajasthan Royals here at Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad on Friday. Taking to his Twitter, Patidar posted a picture with Kohli and wrote, "No feeling more special than learning from your idol. Grateful."
Yuzvendra Chahal goes into the IPL 2022 final on Sunday, needing one more wicket to take the outright lead in the Purple Cap race. Currently, the Indian spinner is in second position despite having taken the same number of wickets (26) as Purple Cap holder Wanindu Hasaranga. But by the virtue of a better economy rate, the Sri Lankan heads the pack. Chahal has been in top form for Rajasthan Royals in IPL 2022 and his team will be hoping that he adds to his tally in the IPL final against Gujarat Titans at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad on Sunday. The leg-spinner is also just three wickets away from becoming the highest wicket-taker in an IPL for Rajasthan Royals.
The IPL 2022 final will get underway under three hours from now and it will be Gujarat Titans and Rajasthan Royals that will square off at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad. Hardik Pandya and Sanju Samson have shown a calm head on their shoulders and led excellently on the field to take both these sides to the summit clash. These two teams had finished at the top two spots in the league stage, and in Qualifier 1, it was Gujarat who had gotten the better of Rajasthan.
Jos Buttler has been in great form in the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2022. The Rajasthan Royals batter is currently the highest run-getter in this edition with a tally of 824 in 16 matches at an average of 58.86. His strike-rate is 151.47. Buttler is also standing on the cusp of a massive IPL record. The England player has so far hit four centuries in the IPL 2022. He is currently tied with Virat Kohli for most number of tons in a single season of the IPL. If Buttler scores another ton in the final against Gujarat Titans, he will set the new record for most centuries in a single IPL.
