IPL 2023, Match 48, RR vs GT: Keep refreshing the page to get the latest updates.
It's over, Gujarat Titans outplayed Rajasthan Royals by 9 wickets. It was Saha and Hardik's heroics that helped the Titans chase down a meagre total of 119 runs.
After the wicket of Shubman Gill, skipper Hardik Pandya and Saha have been punishing bowlers. Seems like they are in a haste to finish the game. That's two back-to-back sixes from the skipper.
Saha and Shubman Gill started batting for Gujarat. Boult bowled the first over for the Royals and conceded nine runs.
That was a pathetic display of batting by Rajasthan Royals' batters as they scored only 118 in 17.5 overs. Gujarat's bowlers dominated the Royals' batters since the beginning as they kept taking wickets at regular intervals.
Gujarat's leg spinner Rashid Khan has wreaked havoc by picking back-to-back wickets. Rajasthan's batters are clueless against him as they have lost five wickets within 10 overs.
Rajasthan suffered two quick blows in the form of Buttler and Jaiswal but then skipper Sajnu Samson and Paddikal have started building innings for the Royals.
Hardik Pandya cleaned up Buttler and an easy catch by Mohit Sharma did the rest. That's a crucial breakthrough for Gujarat.
Jaiswal and Buttler have started the proceedings for Rajasthan. Shami bowled the first over for Gujarat.
