Gujarat Titans have picked up another crucial win in their quest towards retaining the Indian Premier League (IPL) Trophy that they won in 2022, their inaugural season in the competition.
In the match number 39 of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2023, Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) had to bat first after losing the toss. Thanks to a brilliant inning by Rahmanullah Gurbaz and some good hits from Andre Russell, KKR scored 179 runs in their 20 overs.
Chasing the target, Saha was dismissed by Andre Russell but Shubman Gill continued his brilliant run. He was dismissed for 49 runs. After quick wickets of both Hardik Pandya and Shubman Gill, KKR got back into the match.
However, then both Vijay Shankar and David Miller formed a brilliant partnership. While Miller scored 32 runs in 18 balls, Shankar was the star as he scored 51 runs in 24 balls with a strike rate of 212. See how Twitterati reacted.
