Here's why toss happened twice during KXIP vs DC IPL 2020 match - Watch

Kings XI Punjab (KXIP) are taking on Delhi Capitals (DC) in a crucial IPL 2020 clash at the Dubai International Stadium in Dubai on Tuesday (October 20).

However, the match witnessed a funny hiccup during the toss, when the match official had to do the toss twice.

When the match referee, Prakash Bhatt, tossed the coin in the air first the first time, KXIP skipper KL Rahul forgot to call 'heads" or 'Tails' after assuming DC captain Shreyas Iyer would do so.

However, after a null and void first attempt, onfield match presenter Murali Karthik reminded KL that he needs to call as it is KXIP's home ground.

With the rules now set, Prakash Bhatt once again tossed up the coin and Rahul called for tails but his luck was out.

Upon winning the toss, the DC skipper elected to bat first on the night.
