#2 Rahul Tripathi's drop proves to be extremely costly

Rahul Tripathi's drop was ceertainly not worth it — Rahul Tripathi dropped a sitter

During the fifth over, Kane Williamson scored a boundary of the second delivery which took him to 11.

In the third delivery, Jofra Archer bowled a length ball which Williamson edged to Rahul Tripathi at slip.Tripathi wasn't able to hold on to the ball and did some juggling before dropping it. Jofra Archer was livid at Tripathi for missing a simple attempt.

Tripathi's drop cost RR 52 extra runs. Had he taken the catch, then Sunrisers might not have scored 151 and the outcome of the match may have been different.
