During the eighteenth match of the ongoing tournament of Indian Premier League 2021, Rajasthan Royals vs Kolkata Knight Riders, KKR captain Eoin Morgan became a victim of a horrendous mix up calling between the wickets.

The trouble happened in the second delivery of the eleventh over when Kolkata Knight Riders batsman Rahul Tripathi drove the opposition bowler Chris Morris down the ground. The ball hit at the non-strikers end after getting deflected, where Morgan got confused with Tripathi.

Rahul Tripathi, who initially called for a non existing single, changed his mind at the last moment just as KKR captain Morgan started to run towards the striker’s end. As a result, Morgan had nowhere to run and hade to face a run out as Chris Morris deflected the balls.

As for Kolkata Knight Riders opening the match with batting first, nothing seemed to work for them, as luck doesn’t seem to work with them today. However, now after Morgan’s dismissal due to run out, fans on Twitter have been questioning about him and his captaincy.
