ball duck in the fourth over. Then Gill stitched together a partnership with Washington Sundar (49), who narrowly missed out on a half-century, falling to Shami. But it was enough as Sherfane Rutherford arrived as Impact Player after Sundar’s dismissal and formed a partnership with Gill, which took GT past the finishing line in 16.4 overs. Gill ended the match unbeaten, with a knock of 61 runs off 43 balls. Meanwhile, Rutherford was unbeaten at 35* off 16 balls
A four-wicket haul from Mohammed Siraj saw GT restrict SRH to 152/8 in 20 overs. Siraj struck early in the powerplay, removing both openers Travis Head (8) and Abhishek Sharma (18). Meanwhile, Ishan Kishan failed to get going, getting dismissed for 17 off 14 balls. Nitish Kumar Reddy and Heinrich Klaasen tried to revive the SRH innings with a partnership, but Kishore made sure that didn’t happen. First, he removed Klaasen (27) in the 14th over, and then got Reddy in the 16th. Siraj also struck again in the 19th over to take the wickets of Aniket Verma (18) and Simarjeet Singh (0) to end with 4/17. Initially, GT skipper Shubman Gill won the toss and opted to bowl vs SRH.
