IPL 2025: 'Management Is The One Who Decides', Says Nitish Rana On Not Batting In Super Over
Arun Jaitley Stadium: One would have expected for Nitish Rana to be one of Rajasthan Royals’ (RR) batting choices for the first Super Over of IPL 2025 against Delhi Capitals at the Arun Jaitley Stadium on Wednesday night.
But to everyone’s surprise, despite making a fluent 51 off 28 balls, Rana wasn’t sent in, as RR preferred Shimron Hetmyer, Riyan Parag and then Yashasvi Jaiswal in the one-over decider. It was a move which didn’t pay off as RR made only 11 runs off five balls, including run-outs on last two balls.
At the conclusion of the dramatic game, Rana said all the calls related to on-field decision making are at the hands of the team management. “This is never the decision of one person. It's always the management, and the support staff, as they can discuss and take a decision on these things. I feel that if this result was in our favour, then the question would have been different. So, this game of cricket is a result-oriented game.
