'That Could Cost You The Match,' Fans React As Deepak Chahar Drops Shubman Gill In CSK vs GT IPL 2023 Final

IPL 2023 Final: An interesting moment took place during the IPL 2023 final between the Chennai Super Kings and Gujarat Titans as Shubman Gill was dropped on three runs by pacer Deepak Chahar. Gill who has been in sensational form in this year's IPL was dropped at the short square-leg position by the CSK pacer during the second over when Tushar Deshpande was bowling.

Fans on social media slammed the CSK bowler for his poor fielding alleging that he might have cost CSK the final with that moment. It can be understood why fans slammed Chahar on social media as Shubman Gill came into this contest with three hundreds in his last three games played.
