Gujarat Titans coach Ashish Nehra was visibly furious and animated in the dugout after Sherfane Rutherford threw away his wicket at a crucial stage during Match 9 of IPL 2025 against Mumbai Indians at the Narendra Modi Stadium. Rutherford, who was looking well-set on 18 off 11 balls, attempted an unnecessary big shot off Deepak Chahar and ended up lofting it straight to Mitchell Santner at long-off.<\/p>\n
The dismissal triggered a major reaction from Nehra, who was seen shouting and gesturing in frustration\u2014a moment that instantly went viral across social media.<\/p>\n
At the time of Rutherford\u2019s dismissal, Gujarat Titans were 179\/6 in 18.2 overs, despite a strong start in the powerplay where they raced to 66\/0. However, a steady fall of wickets in the last five overs\u201452 runs for 5 wickets\u2014has pegged them back.<\/p>\n
\nChahar to Rutherford, OUT! On a length around off, Rutherford takes on the pacer but mistimes it. Santner holds on calmly at long-off. GT lose their sixth.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
