IPL 2019: 5 Captaincy blunders of the season
If the decision making would've been better from the captains, the close matches could've gone either way.
4. RR sending Binny down the order in the chase (RR vs KXIP)
Chasing a total of 183, RR got off to a great start. Rahul Tripathi and the other top-order batsmen had put them in a position, from where they could have cruised to victory. However, some extraordinary effort from the KXIP bowlers put the team into a commanding position.
RR needed 50 of the last 3 overs. It was looking that the match had slipped out of the hands. But Stuart Binny had some other plans. He smashed an 11-ball-33 to instil some hope in the game. However, it had been quite late until then and even Binny’s cameo couldn’t save the team. KXIP won the game by a margin of 12 runs. Had Binny batted above Ashton Turner and Rahane, the Royals could have won this match.
