Wriddhiman Saha Finally Reveals The Reason Behind Wearing Trousers Reverse During Game Vs LSG

Gujarat Titans’ Wriddhiman Saha was involved in one of the most hilarious incidents of the ongoing 2023 edition of the Indian Premier League during his side’s clash against Lucknow Super Giants at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad.

The incident took place when Gujarat Titans came out to field in the second innings of the game. Saha was seen rushing out to the field keep wickets, however, as he was in a hurry he was involved in a small wardrobe malfunction.

Yes, you read that right. As Saha came rushing out on the field, he wore his trousers the other way around. This hilarious turn of events left everyone in splits, including his teammates and captain Hardik Pandya. The commentators were also quick to point out the hilarious mistake.

Wriddhiman Saha revealed story behind wardrobe malfunction

It was later on revealed that Gujarat Titans tried to bring KS Bharat as a substitute for a seemingly injured Saha, however, the umpires didn’t allow it and in a rush, Saha came out on the field, wearing his trousers reverse.

The veteran keeper-batter has finally revealed why he had wore his trousers reverse. Well, later after the game, in a one on one session with KS Bharat, Wriddhiman Saha revealed that he was eating his food and was prepared to take his medicine, when he got the call to take the field. KS Bharat asked:

“I told the umpires that you are having the needling session, but they didn’t allow me to keep”

Responding to this, Saha revealed:

“I was eating my food and the physio said I need to take my medicine too. So I had to wear my pants in a hurry and it was worn the other way around. After two overs I returned and you did a wonderful job”

Wriddhiman Saha only kept for two overs, following which KS Bharat replaced him. Saha looked in pain and the Hardik Pandya-led side would hope that their star keeper-batter gets well soon.

Saha played a brilliant knock

Earlier in the game, Saha played a magnificent knock of 81 runs off 43 balls, smashing 10 fours and 4 sixes. He was involved in a stellar partnership with Shubman Gill, who scored 94 runs off 51 balls. Riding on the brilliant performances of Saha and Gill, GT posted a target of 228 runs for Lucknow.

Gujarat Titans’ bowlers, later on, did a commendable job and successfully restricted LSG to 171 runs. Mohit Sharma (4/29) was the pick of the bowlers for GT.
