In-form batting troika set up another convincing GT win

Gujarat Titans' top-order consistency came to the fore again, while their bowlers, led by Prasidh Krishna, delivered a disciplined performance to power their side to the second spot in the standings with a 38-run win over Sunrisers Hyderabad.

GT posted a sizable 224/6, thanks to fine knocks from Sai Sudharsan (48 off 23), Shubman Gill (76 off 38) and Jos Buttler (64 off 37). In reply, Abhishek Sharma struck a 41-ball 74 but GT kept the brakes on throughout the second innings, with SRH finishing well short at 186/6.

In the powerplay and through the spell of Prasidh. The GT openers continued their good run in the competition, dealing in boundaries as they powered GT to their highest powerplay score of 82, which was also the best in Ahmedabad.

The SRH openers tried to give a similar start for their side, but the GT pacers showed better discipline and kept it away from the hitting arc of the batters.
