AHMEDABAD: Smarting under another defeat while defending a total at the Narendra Modi Stadium on Sunday, Gujarat Titans director of cricket Vikram Solanki defended the hosts' bowling strategy against Rajasthan Royals, including giving pacer Mohit Sharma only two overs, and termed it as a 'line call'.
Sharma, who was the 'player of the match' against Punjab Kings, conceded only seven runs and the decision to not bowl him in the death overs came under scrutiny even as Alzarri Joseph and Rashid Khan had an off day. Titans' 177/7 was chased down by Royals with three wickets and four balls to spare.
