During the match between Gujarat Titans and Rajasthan Royals in Qualifier-2 of IPL 2026, such a scene was once again seen which surprised everyone. Gujarat’s star batsman Sai Sudarshan was out hit-wicket for the second consecutive match.

However, in this match Gujarat won against Rajasthan by 7 wickets. Now on May 31, Gujarat team will play RCB in Ahmedabad in the IPL final.

After this, the fifth ball quickly crossed the boundary, but at the same time Sai’s bat slipped from his hand and fell straight on the stumps. The umpire immediately declared him hit-wicket out. The fans present in the stadium were also stunned to see such an out, while captain Shubman Gill sat on his knees in disappointment.

During the commentary, Ravi Shastri jokingly said – Where is Fevicol? Where is the glue? Because Sudarshan was out in the same manner for the second consecutive match. Earlier also in the match against RCB, the bat had left his hand and hit the stumps.

With this wicket, Sai Sudarshan also made an unwanted record in his name. Now he has come in the list of players who have been hit-wicketed out the maximum number of times 3 times in men’s T20 cricket. Andre Russell and Shoaib Malik are also included in this list. The special thing is that all three hit-wickets of Sudarshan have come in IPL only.
