Gujarat Titans just reminded everyone why they’re not here to mess around. With a flawless 10-wicket win over Delhi Capitals, they made chasing 200 look like a friendly neighborhood jog in IPL. Let’s dig into this absolute cricketing flex.
Gujarat Titans Openers Go Beast Mode
Sai Sudharsan and captain Shubman Gill turned the pitch into their personal playground. The Delhi bowlers might as well have been bowling with tennis balls, because nothing worked.
Sudharsan stayed unbeaten on 103 runs from just 61 balls. He hit 12 boundaries and 4 sixes like it was a training session. On the other end, Gill calmly smashed 93 not out off 53 balls, with 3 fours and 7 sixes. Together, they chased down 200 without losing a single wicket. Yep, Gujarat Titans weren’t even pretending to struggle.
Delhi Tried Their Best, But Gujarat Titans Were Unstoppable
Delhi batted first after winning the toss and put up 199 for 3. KL Rahul was the main guy for Delhi, hitting an unbeaten 112. It was a solid effort, but unfortunately, it felt like bringing a spoon to a sword fight.
Abhishek Porel added 30, Axar Patel scored 25, and Tristan Stubbs remained not out at 21. But it wasn’t enough to stop the Gujarat Titans juggernaut.
Gujarat Titans Take the Top Spot Like a Boss
After this win, Gujarat Titans now sit on top of the table with 18 points from 12 games. They’ve officially booked a seat in the playoffs, and they did it in style.
Bangalore and Punjab aren’t far behind with 17 points each, but the Titans are currently king of the hill. All three teams are through to the playoffs.
Delhi’s Playoff Hopes Hang by a Thread
Delhi might need to start hoping for some serious cricket miracles. Mumbai Indians and Lucknow Super Giants are also eyeing the final playoff spot. So unless someone pulls off a surprise, Delhi may have to pack early.
One thing’s for sure: Gujarat Titans are rolling into the playoffs with full confidence and clean shirts. Because no one made them break a sweat today.
