Rajasthan Royals made a strong comeback in the space of just two days to book their place in the 2022 Indian Premier League (IPL) final. After finishing runners-up in the league stage, Rajasthan lost to the Gujarat Titans in Kolkata earlier this week before making a comeback in the second qualifier to advance to the final by beating Royal Challengers Bangalore on Friday in Ahmedabad.

After the game, Rajasthan Royals guard Trent Boult was spotted offering his shirt to a young fan, who had donned the RCB shirt. However, he quickly removed the shirt and wore the Boult-gifted RR shirt.
Rajasthan Royals then shared a video of the same and captioned it, “How not to love Trent Boult? Watch him make a young fan’s day after #RRvRCB.”

Boult was key for the Royals on their way to the final. The New Zealand international picked 15 wickets in as many games at an economy rate of 8.24.
It is the second time Rajasthan have reached the final of an IPL season after the inaugural edition in 2008 when Shane Warne led the franchise to their only title victory.
Rajasthan will face Gujarat Titans in the season finale on Sunday at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad. Gujarat have won their previous two matches this season beating Rajasthan by 37 runs in April and then by 7 wickets in Qualifier 1 in Kolkata.
