Titans Beat Royals At Home, Continue Their Good Form In IPL 2025

Yashasvi Jaiswal struggled to get off to a good start, walking back after only six runs. Nitish Rana, who finished third, also failed to make an impact. But skipper Sanju Samson tried to get things started with a 28-ball 41. Riyan Parag appeared to be in good form, but he was dismissed at 26 after an apparent interaction with the umpire over the DRS. After Dhruv Jurel was dismissed at 5, Shimron Hetmeyer took over, scoring a 32-ball 52. Following his dismissal, RR's lower order struggled to cope with GT's bowling arsenal. The Titans' bowling effectively detailed RR's momentum as they were restricted to 159.

Gujarat Titans got off to a good start, with opener Sai Suadharsan continuing his golden run with the bat. Unfortunately, Shubman Gill failed to score in his backyard in Ahmedabad after Jofra Archer's inswinger delivery uprooted his stumps. However, GT picked up pace as Sudharsan continued his strong onslaught with the bat. He recorded his third half-century of the season and finished with a 53-ball 82. Jos Buttler also scored 36 runs off 25 balls. Sudharsan and Shahrukh Khan formed a solid partnership to keep things going. Rahul Tewatia added the finishing touches with an unbeaten 24 off 12 to help GT reach 217.
