Watch the cutest face-off between Rahul Tewatia and Ponting Jr. at Narendra Modi Stadium

Rahul Tewatia of the Gujarat Titans tested his batting prowess against Ricky Ponting’s kid before their IPL match on Wednesday. At the Narendra Modi Stadium, GT will play the Delhi Capitals. The 2022 IPL champions released a video of Tewatia and the Delhi coach’s son, Fletcher William Ponting, having a nice conversation before the match.

“Are you an all-rounder or a proper batter?” Tewatia questioned Ponting Jr. in the video. Saying, “Allrounder,” Fletcher proceeds to show off his quick bowling abilities to the Gujarat batsman.

In addition to being one of the best cricket players in the world, Ricky Ponting is a devoted parent. Three children are the fortunate possession of the three-time ICC World Cup champion and his spouse, Rianna Jennifer Cantor. Emmy Charlotte and Matisse Ellie are the two older sisters of Fletcher William Ponting, the youngest of the three.

Rahul Tewatia, a cricket player from Haryana, will be hoping to have an effect on the Delhi Capitals on Wednesday. The hitter has earned a reputation as a hard-hitting finisher in recent years. He first gained notoriety in 2020 when, while playing for the Rajasthan Royals, he hit five sixes in one over against Sheldon Cottrell.

In the end, he tied Chris Gayle for the most sixes in an over in the history of the competition. The Gujarat Titans purchased him in the IPL 2022 auction. With 103 runs in six games this year, Tewatia is off to a great start. He won the award in his first season.

Leading the pace for the Gujarat Titans against the Delhi Capitals will be Shubman Gill. Before the 2024 season, Hardik Pandya signed a deal to join the Mumbai Indians, therefore, the youthful batter assumed the captaincy. Gujarat has won three and lost as many tournament games under his guidance. They will now aim to defeat the Rishabh Pant-led team for a record-breaking fourth win.
