DC vs GT: Gujarat Titans successfully chased the target of 204 runs against Delhi Capitals to climb at the top of the points table.
Gujarat Titans, after winning the toss, elected to bowl first. Abishek Porel and Karun Nair opened the innings for Delhi Capitals. The left-handed batter started well and scored runs against Mohammed Siraj, but his innings didn’t last more than 9 balls as he got out after scoring 18 runs. KL Rahul batted for a while before getting out on 28 runs. Despite losing wickets, DC posted 72 runs on the board at the end of powerplay. Tristan Stubbs and Axar Patel were eyeing a huge target, but the South African got out after scoring 31 runs. Ashutosh Sharma contributed 37 runs as DC posted 203 on the board at the end of 20 overs.
Chasing 204 runs, Gujarat Titans lost skipper Shubman Gill in the 2nd over of the chase as a miscommunication between him and Sai Sudarshan led to his departure from the crease. Despite losing their captain, Jos Buttler and Sai Sudarshan kept calm and hit good shots on loose deliveries. Kuldeep Yadav broke the partnership by taking the wicket of Sai Sudarshan. Sherfane Rutherford and Jos Buttler took the innings afterward, and the latter scored his fifty. It looked like these two were going to win for their team, but Rutherford got out, and tight bowling from DC in the death overs made the game enjoyable. With 10 to defend in the last over, Mitchell Starc had the ball, but this time, he failed to defend it as Rahul Tewatia hit a six and a boundary in the first two deliveries to end the game.

The way we pulled the game back… at one point it looked like their total would be 220-230 but credit to the bowlers for pulling it back. Even in the first game, chasing around 245 we were right in the game and lost by around 10 runs. We’ve been chasing well. [On Sai Kishore] I think they were ahead in the game and I didn’t want them to get too ahead in the game and with Axar batting there till almost the end, and the fast bowlers being tough to hit, so just wanted to continue with that. Magnificent the way Sherfane and Buttler rotated the strike and those hits were tremendous. Their partnership wasn’t just brutal hitting, it was very calculated batting. The way they rotated strike and picked their bowlers was excellent.”
Shubman Gill(Gujarat Titans Captain) said post-match
“I think we were 10-15 runs short. I think that made the difference. When we wanted to accelerate, we kept losing set batters and we lost momentum and we couldn’t finish how we wanted. Even if we got a couple more hits away in the last over we could have restricted them. We bowled well, but if we were a little better with our catching and fielding it would have been good, but we were short with our target. There is not too much to think about. We just need to learn what more we could have done and not make the same mistakes next time.”
