Gujarat Titans Innings – 210-4
Gujarat Titans came out swinging right from the first over. Shubman Gill, back after missing their previous game, looked like a man on a mission. He combined brilliantly with Jos Buttler to put GT in a commanding position.
Top Scorers for GT
| Batter | Runs | Balls | 4s | 6s | SR |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Shubman Gill (c) | 70 | 45 | 4 | 5 | 155.56 |
| Washington Sundar | 55 | 32 | 6 | 2 | 171.88 |
| Jos Buttler (wk) | 52 | 27 | 3 | 5 | 192.59 |
| Glenn Phillips | 14 | 9 | 1 | 1 | 155.56 |
Gill and Buttler put on 104 runs for the third wicket and that stand basically won the game for GT. Washington Sundar’s cameo of 55 off 32 in the back half of the innings pushed the total past 200 and beyond easy chase territory. The powerplay yielded 68 runs, setting the tone for everything that followed.
Mukesh Kumar was DC’s best bowler, taking 2 wickets, while Lungi Ngidi was economical at just 6 runs per over. Vipraj Nigam had a horror spell, leaking 23 in his only over.
Delhi Capitals Chase – 209-8
DC’s chase was special. It really was. KL Rahul played one of the finest innings of this IPL season so far, scoring 92 off 52 balls, hitting 11 fours and 4 sixes. For a long time it looked like he was going to win it for Delhi single-handedly.
DC Top Scorers
| Batter | Runs | Balls | 4s | 6s | SR |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| KL Rahul (wk) | 92 | 52 | 11 | 4 | 176.92 |
| Pathum Nissanka | 41 | 24 | 6 | 1 | 170.83 |
| David Miller | 41 | 20 | 3 | 3 | 205.00 |
Nissanka gave DC a flying start with 41 off 24, and when Rahul joined the party, DC looked in full control. The 76-run opening stand off just 49 balls had GT worried. But Rashid Khan had other ideas.
Rashid dismissed Nitish Rana, Sameer Rizvi, and Axar Patel in his four overs and leaked just 17 runs, finishing with figures of 3/17. That spell was the difference. DC kept losing wickets at crucial moments and even Rahul’s departure in the 17th over made the equation brutally tough.
David Miller’s 41 off 20 at the end almost pulled off a miracle. But DC needed 8 off the last over and managed only 7, falling one run short.
GT Bowling Performance
| Bowler | O | R | W | Econ |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Rashid Khan | 4 | 17 | 3 | 4.20 |
| Kagiso Rabada | 4 | 32 | 0 | 8.00 |
| Prasidh Krishna | 4 | 52 | 2 | 13.00 |
| Mohammed Siraj | 4 | 52 | 1 | 13.00 |
Rashid Khan was the clear match-winner with the ball. In a game where everything else was high-scoring and wild, his spell was surgical. Three wickets and just over 4 runs an over in a 210-run chase is extraordinary.

What This Result Means
For Gujarat Titans, this is their first win of the season and it could not have come in more dramatic fashion. After two heavy defeats, the team needed something to believe in. Gill’s return immediately made a difference and the squad will be buzzing.

- KL Rahul is in the form of his life this IPL season
