In the IPL 2026 match between the Gujarat Titans (GT) and Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) on April 12, Shubman Gill pulled off a spectacular "no-look" six against Mohammed Shami. The shot was a highlight of Gill’s half-century, where he reached 50 runs off 34 balls. This innings was also a personal milestone, as he became the youngest player to surpass 4,000 career runs in the IPL.
Shubman Gill delivered a captain's knock of 56 runs off 40 balls before being dismissed in the 15th over. His innings provided a solid foundation for the Gujarat Titans (GT) in their pursuit of 165 at the Ekana Cricket Stadium. He shared a crucial second-wicket stand with Jos Buttler, which effectively neutralised LSG's bowling attack during the middle overs. The GT skipper’s innings ended when he gloved a sharp, rising delivery from Prince Yadav to the wicketkeeper in the 15th over.

Gujarat Titans’ batters dominate at Ekana Stadium in Lucknow
The Gujarat Titans (GT) delivered a dominant all-round performance today, April 12, putting them on the brink of a comfortable victory against the Lucknow Super Giants (LSG). After restricting LSG to a modest 164/8, GT is currently in control of the chase at the Ekana Cricket Stadium. GT's bowling attack was disciplined and clinical, never allowing LSG to build significant momentum. Prasidh Krishna was the standout performer, reclaiming the Purple Cap with career-best figures of 4/28.
GT’s top order made light work of the 165-run target with aggressive batting. Following an early exit for Sai Sudharsan (15), Shubman Gill (56 off 40) and Jos Buttler (56* off 35) shared a blistering 84-run partnership. A highlight was the fifth over, where Gill smashed 20 runs off Mohammed Shami, including his signature "no-look" six, to seize total control.
