Rajasthan Royals emerged victorious in their thrilling encounter against Gujarat Titans on Sunday, clinching a well-deserved three-wicket win. After being asked to bat first, GT managed to post a respectable total of 177 for seven, thanks to some crucial innings from Shubman Gill, David Miller, and Abhinav Manohar. However, it was RR who dominated the chase and crossed the finish line with four balls to spare. Sanju Samson led by example with a quickfire 60, while Shimron Hetmyer provided the late fireworks with an unbeaten 56 off just 26 balls. Despite Mohammed Shami‘s impressive three-wicket haul, GT’s efforts fell short, delivering a convincing win for the Royals.
The Rajasthan Royals seem to have found their groove, as they cruised to another victory on Sunday, consolidating their position at the top of the table with 8 points from 5 games. Their latest triumph puts them two points clear of the Lucknow Super Giants who are hot on their heels. With both teams having played the same number of matches, the Royals will take comfort in the gap they’ve managed to create. As the tournament progresses, it will be interesting to see if they can maintain their form and remain atop the leaderboard.
