Martin Guptill smashed the lengthy delivery for the six in the first ball of the 18th over and stared at Deepak Chahar who just walked back to his bowling mark. Check out the video and Twitter users reactions.
A little eye-catching banter between Team India’s fast bowler Deepak Chahar and Team New Zealand’s batsman Martin Guptill was a highlight of yesterday’s T20 match. Deepak Chahar won the ‘moment of the match’ award for his death stare reaction on bowling out Guptill in the first T20I which ended up him winning Rs 1 lakh and a trophy.
What was the story behind Deepak Chahar’s ‘death stare’ reaction?
Yesterday’s T20 match between Team India and Team New Zealand started off with an amazing note for Team India with Bhuvneshwar Kumar knocking out Daryl Mitchell’s in the first over itself. However, after that Martin Guptill and Mark Chapman formed a mind-boggling partnership and batted exceptionally well to be on the top of the competitive scoreboard.
Martin Guptill was on fleek with his batting as he was smashing sixes after sixes. Soon after in 18th over a little ‘knock-out’ moment happened between Chahar and Guptill. Guptill smashed the lengthy delivery for the six in the first ball of the 18th over and stared at the bowler who just walked back to his bowling mark.
Deepak Chahar, on the other hand, didn’t waste any time in making a remarkable recovery and handing it back to the batsman. Martin Guptil attempted another long delivery, but this time it was a little slower. He missed to hit the delivery for a six as he would have wanted, and Shreyas Iyer ended up catching the ball.
This was the moment Chahar gave the Kiwi batsman the death gaze and stole the show. Though no words were said, the lethal glare was enough to capture the whole event.
The video has gone popular on the internet. Here’s the video:

Rohit Sharma criticises impact player rule, BCCI reacts
India captian and Mumbai Indians star cricketer Rohit sharma criticised the impact player rule and sad that he is not a big fan of it. Now, BCCI has responded to Sharma’s comment and said that they will reevaluate the rule.
Indian Premier League (IPL) chairman Arun Dhumal also acknowledged this and said that every decision has advantages and disadvantages, he also mentioned BCCI is prepared to review the regulation when the current IPL season concludes.
Ahead to being established in the IPL, the impact player rule was initially put into effect in the Syed Mushtaq Ali T20 tournament in 2022–2023. There have been many expert comments regarding the rule that has been in place for almost two editions of the prestigious T20 tournament, with the many of players being against it.
Since this remark has been made, they will certainly analyze it and talk to everyone concerned and then the board will take calls, Dhumal said.
Every rule that is in place has a number of advantages and disadvantages. Nothing about its execution is set in stone, so after the season ends, they are open to any discussion, he continued.
Earlier, Rohit Sharma also discussed how the impact player rule is reducing the role of all-rounders in the sport.
Sharma said, he is not a big fan of Impact sub rule. All rounders will eventually be held back because cricket is ultimately played by 11 players, not 12. To make the game exciting for everyone around you, you are taking a great deal from it. During an interew the hitman said, if the audience look just at the cricketing side of things, he feels guys like Shivam Dube and Washington Sundar aren’t getting to bowl, which is not a good thing for them as a team.
He continued saying that there are 12 players, it’s interesting, and after the team or the captain sees how the game and the pitch are playing, they might turn on the impact player. You can add another bowler, giving you a total of six or seven bowlers, if the team bats effectively and don’t lose wickets. Many teams are hitting well up front, and he hardly ever sees a No 7 or No 8 coming to bat, so the team doesn’t need that additional batter, Rohit Sharma said.

Rinku Singh breaks Virat Kohli’s gifted bat, asks for another one ahead of KKR vs RCB
Rinku Singh asked Virat Kohli for another bat after breaking the one he received after the last KKR vs RCB match
Kolkata Knight Riders batter Rinku Singh had a hilarious yet strange conversation with Virat Kohli ahead of the KKR vs RCB match at Eden Gardens. The clash, which is scheduled for Sunday, April 21, in Kolkata, is the rivalry’s inverse.
KKR destroyed RCB at their home ground, the M Chinnaswamy Stadium, in the first leg of the match. The players on both teams’ mutual admiration for one another was one of the rivalry’s highlights.
In that particular game, Virat Kohli had gifted one of his bats to Rinku Singh. Rinku, however, broke the bat when playing a spinner in the Indian Premier League, and he then wisely asked Kohli for a replacement bat before the KKR vs. RCB match.
KKR cameramen captured the event, whether it was scripted or not, as Rinku was seen telling Kohli that he had already broken his bat. A little angry Kohli asked for specifics of the whereabouts and questioned if Rinku was asking for a second bat as Rinku was examining two of his other bats. Before Rinku could respond, Kohli warned the KKR batsman that he would run into problems later in the tournament if he gave Rinku 2 bats in two matches.
In the video, Rinku was seen talking to Kohli, and was heard saying in Hindi that Bhaiya apki bat toot gayi, aapki kasam, dobara nahi todunga bat, to which Kohli replied 2 match mein tujhe 2 bat dun?
Meanwhile, the bat served as a token of appreciation for Rinku’s contributions to KKR and the Indian squad, as well as his rise to the position of finisher. In addition, the video showed the players from RCB and KKR conversing with one another following the game, demonstrating excellent sportsmanship and respect.
RCB has come to Kolkata in an attempt to restart their campaign. The team needs to win its final five games to have any chance of making it through the tournament.
