IPL 2025: The Indian Premier League is bigger and better in 2025 as it is now reaching out to more fans across the country with it's diversity. With IPL now being televised in many languages, a certain fan reckons the quality of Hindi commentary has diminished. The fan feels that nowadays Hindi commentary has become more about one-liners, unlike in the past when it was more informative.

Sudharsan continued to dominate, playing a blistering knock of 74 off 41 balls, which included five fours and six sixes. However, his innings was cut short by left-arm seamer Arshdeep Singh, leaving Gujarat at 145/2 in 12.3 overs.

Jos Buttler and Sherfane Rutherford then built a 54-run partnership, keeping Gujarat in the hunt. Buttler reached his half-century but was bowled for 54 by Marco Jansen. Rahul Tewatia followed but managed only six runs before being run out.

Punjab will now play Lucknow on April 1 and they would like to keep up the winning momentum.
