Kulwant Khejroliya bowled a full-length delivery that Riyan Parag attempted to play, resulting in a faint edge that was caught by Gujarat Titans' wicketkeeper Jos Buttler. The catch was reviewed and replays confirmed it was a clean catch, but this wasn't the source of the controversy.

Riyan Parag believed his bat touched the ground at the same time the ball was near it, causing a spike, and felt he hadn't made contact. Despite replays suggesting otherwise, Parag was visibly upset, argued with the umpire, and reluctantly left the field.
