Eventually the game went right down to the wire and the Titans emerged on top by a solitary run. For the Titans, Rashid Khan was the star with the ball as his three wickets proved crucial in the win. 

Gill spoke about the overthrow after the match and reckoned that could have made a difference in the end in a tight finish. 

"Apart from, the overthrows that I gave and the boundary that I gave. I think those 5-6 runs, obviously in fielding, it makes a difference especially in a game like this, you see you're winning by one run. So every effort and every misfield or every good effort counts. Definitely very pleased, 210. We always thought on this wicket, we are 10-15 runs above par," Gill said at the post-match presentation. 

Titans Register First Win

After two back to back losses, the Titans got off the mark with a win over the Capitals. The win should give them a lot of confidence ahead of their next clash.
