Google CEO Sundar Pichai: Google CEO Sundar Pichai was surprised why did Gujarat Titans bench Washington Sundar from their playing XI in the IPL match against Punjab Kings.

Fans were left puzzled and questioning the decision when Gujarat Titans skipper Shubman Gill won the toss and chose to field against Punjab Kings at the Narendra Modi Stadium, with both Washington Sundar and Glenn Phillips surprisingly named in the Impact substitutes list instead of the starting XI.

A fan took to X to question the decision, only to receive an unexpected reply from the CEO of Google.
