Topic result for gujarat-titans

Wearing traditional outfits, the star cricketers, who are generally seen in cricketing gears on the field, enthralled the fans by performing garba.

After the bowlers produced a brilliant show to restrict Chennai to a below-par 133/5, Saha carried his bat throughout the innings to chase the total with five balls to spare. The result also means that Gujarat have confirmed their spot in the top two of the points table, which means they will get to play in Qualifier 1 at Kolkata on May 24.

Clinical bowling and good work in the field helped Mumbai Indians pull off a five-run win over Gujarat Titans

Gujarat Titans pulled things back by getting rid of Washington Sundar, who was run out at the non-striker's end but the likes of Shashank and Marco Jansen had saved their best for the last over.

It was Gujarat's fourth win of the IPL 2022 season and they climbed to the top of the points table with 8 points.

The chase began with Williamson beaten on the inside edge off Mohammed Shami and was struck on pads. Hardik Pandya consulted keeper Matthew Wade, but eventually didn't go for review. But replays later showed Williamson would have been out.

Pandya and Manohar joined forces to stitch a stand of 50 off 32 balls for the fifth wicket against a Hyderabad bowling attack which had Bhuvneshwar Kumar and T Natarajan taking two wickets each.

Chasing a target of 190, Gujarat looked cruising to victory with opener Shubman Gill and skipper Hardik Pandya leading the charge.

Livingstone, who was bought for Rs 11.5 crore, smashed 64 off just 27 balls to score the bulk of the runs for Punjab Kings after being asked to bat first.

After Gill's wicket in the 18th over, Gujarat Titans could not hit the fifth gear, which was required for a solid finish. David Miller (20), and Rahul Tewatia (14) tried to break the shackles but Mustafizur was just too good with his cutters and change of pace.

The type of a fast bowler Shami is, he relies a lot on his short, skiddy nature and delivers the ball at an awkward angle where the time of decision making for the batsman is limited.

Chasing 159 for victory, Gujarat Titans overcame a few hiccups and reached 161/5 in 19.4 overs.

Shami, bowling beautifully and always in the channel, sent back Lucknow's other opener, Quinton de Kock (10), splitting the gap between the bat and pad with a peach of a delivery that was fullish and did a wee bit to fox the South African batter.

Gujarat Titans' home stadium will be the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad, the world's largest cricket stadium.
