Nicholas Puran’s explosive innings unilaterally match
Nicholas Puran, who came at number three, also lashed out at the bowlers of Gujarat Titans. He completed his half -century in 23 balls by hitting a four off the fourth ball of the 13th over. With this, he also got back his orange cap, which reached Sai Sudarshan after the first innings.
Nicholas Puran played a rage of 61 runs in 34 balls, in this innings he hit 7 sixes and 1 four. He was caught out on the second ball of the 16th over by Rashid Khan, at this time the team’s score was 155/3 and 26 runs were required to win.
Gill-Sai century partnership waste
Earlier, Gujarat Titans scored 180 runs while batting first, although the score should have gone to at least 210 from the way Shubman Gill and Sai Sudarshan started. Gill (60) and Sudarshan (56) added 120 runs for the first wicket. The middle order of Gujarat was a flop and the Gujarat team could score only 60 runs in the last 8 overs.
🎬 A superb opening act of 1️⃣2️⃣0️⃣ that deserved all the applause 👏👏
Both openers depart as #GT are 123/2.
