Follow us on

Hardik Pandya's Gujarat Titans on Friday registered a thumping over Sanju Samson-led Rajasthan ROyals in the 48th match of IPL 2023. The defending champions outclassed the 2022 runners-up in one-way traffic at the Sawai Mansingh Stadium in Jaipur as they chased down the target of 119 runs with 9 wickets in hand and 37 balls to go. 

Rashid Khan produced a breathtaking spell of 4-0-14-3, while his compatriot from Afghanistan took 2 wickets in his 3 overs as the Titans rattled Royals' batting line-up. Meanwhile, their batters complemented the dominance and the trio of Wriddhiman Saha, Shubman Gill and Hardik Pandya wrapped things inside 14 overs. After the game, GT have made a big lead at the top of the points table, while RR now fear getting dropped out from the top 4. The big loss has also hurt the Royals' net run rate.
