Match Details
Arya- It was never going to be a big ask for the Gujarat Titans and once the opening duo of Wriddhiman Saha and Shubhman Gill got them off to a flying start, it was always going to be a small target for the Titans. Wriddhiman Saha in particular was in sensational touch right from the word go and again made full use of the powerplay to get their side going. It was a great start from the wicket-keeper batsman who made sure that Gujarat Titans didn’t had any problems at the start.
After a bit of a sedate start, it was Shubhman Gill who took on the onus on hismelf to play the big shots. He struck three fours before perishing at the hands of Pathirana in his very first ball of his IPL career. Saha continued the good work and Matthew Wade who came in at the fall of Gill's wicket looked in good touch and scored 20 runs in 15 balls to get his side close to the victory target.
Hardik Pandya began with a boundary straightaway but fell to Pathirana who bagged his 2nd wicket. In the end it was David Miller and Saha who saw their side through with five balls remaining.
