The star opener of Chennai, Ruturaj Gaikwad, has left everyone in awe with his sensational performance in the ongoing tournament opener of the Indian T20 League against Gujarat. Gaikwad took to the field with Devon Conway to open the innings for Chennai, but unfortunately, Conway was dismissed early on with only 14 runs on the board.
