Kolkata Knight Riders batsman Robin Uthappa took to the field in the IPL 2019 match against Rajasthan Royals, wearing a face mask.
Robin Uthappa was wearing the mask after a dust storm hit Jaipur before the match started. On-ground officials were seen scurrying for the covers which were flying off due to the dust storm.
In the match, Kolkata Knight Riders dominated Rajasthan Royals in the Pink City with an 8-wicket win that took them to the top of the table.
KKR bowlers first restricted Rajasthan Royals for a paltry total of 139 in the first innings, before usurping the 140-run target in just 13.5 overs.
