Nitish Rana landed at number three and played an explosive innings.
New Delhi. Nitish Rana played an important role in giving Rajasthan Royals the first win of IPL this season. Nitish landed against Chennai Super Kings for batting at number three instead of number four. He got down at number three and played a brilliant innings of 81 runs off 36 balls. After the victory, Rana told who was the decision to bat at number three. He told that this decision was not of his but coach Rahul Dravid and Vikram Rathore. The decision on this had already been taken in the dressing room. Nitish also explained why he was not sent for batting at number three.
Nitish Rana said after Royals ‘first win in this IPL season,’ I wanted to use the new ball right because the powerplay was important. The ball starts taking spin after it becomes old. That is why I wanted to score maximum runs in the powerplay. Asked about the batting at number three, Rana said, ‘This decision was of coaches. I am ready to bat on any order. This was a strategic decision because at number four I was trying to be very aggressive and Ryan was doing the same at number three.

With the help of 4 wickets from leg -spinner Vanindu Hasranga after Nitish Rana’s 36 balls, Rajasthan Royals defeated Chennai Super Kings by 6 runs and opened their account. Rana, who was sent for batting at number three, took Royals to 182 runs for nine on the basis of 10 fours and five sixes innings. In response, Chennai Super Kings could not achieve the target of 180 runs even once after 2019 and could only score 176 runs for six wickets in 20 overs. Captain Ruturaj Gaikwad scored 63 runs but no other batsman could stand due to which the team had to face the second consecutive defeat.
Nitish Rana said, ‘I wanted to stay at the crease for a long time and the good thing is that I could do it today.’ Asked if he will now bat at number three, he said, ‘You will have to ask this Rahul sir (head coach Dravid).’ Mahendra Singh Dhoni, who was the world’s best finisher at one time, could not win Chennai Super Kings. After landing at number nine in the last match, today he came to the crease at number seven, when Chennai needed 39 runs in 12 balls. He hit Tushar Deshpande and hit a six but in the last over, Sandeep Sharma lost wickets. Shimron Hetmyer caught his catch by putting a dive near the boundary.
