RR vs GT IPL 2022: With the rise of the T20 format and abundance of matches in all three formats, the players have been in constant effort to remain as fit as they can be. Contributing in the field helps in restricting the opposition of easy runs as well as providing a wicket. All-rounder Rassie van der Dussen displayed excellent skills as he dismissed GT opener, Matthew Wade, with an accurate throw. 

On the 2nd ball of the 2nd over, Gill took a step ahead against Prasidh Krishna and defended the short back of length ball in front of the cover. Rajasthan Royals' Rassie van der Dussen charged in and picked it up swiftly and aimed perfectly at the stumps, dislodging them with a direct hit. 

Before this, Australian keeper-batter Matthew Wade looked dangerous as he smacked 3 fours in the first over being bowled by Jimmy Neesham. Wade scored 12 runs off 6 balls with 3 boundaries and continued his string of good starts but low scores while opening for Gujarat Titans in this season of the IPL.

Wade was acquired at 2.40 crores INR by Gujarat Titans in the IPL 2022 mega auction while Rassie van der Dussen was bought at his base price of 1 crores INR.
