But there is a lot wrong in giving up. “Today I thought that we gave up we were weak. And honestly, there is no place for being weak in a tournament like the IPL or in sport. That is where the problem is. We have beaten sides in this competition but I felt today we lacked the game sense.”

The match seemed evenly balanced, in fact, titled a bit in LSG’s favour at the halfway, as Lucknow bowlers held Titans at an achievable 144/4 in 20 overs. Shubman Gill held his bat with a 63 not out of 39 deliveries while express pacer Avesh Khan notched up four wickets. However, LSG were all out for a dismal 82 in reply as Rashid Khan (4/24), Sai Kishore (2/7) and Yash Dayal (2/24) ran through their batting order.
