Shubman Gill (84 off 46) paved the way for Gujarat Titans’ second successive win in IPL 2022. Gujarat continued their perfect record in the competition by winning two out of their two matches. Riding on Gill’s magnificent knock, Gujarat managed to put on challenging 171/6 in their 20 overs. Mustafizur Rahman (3/23) was the pick of the bowlers for Delhi.
In response, Delhi Capitals kept losing wickets at regular intervals and only managed 157/9 in their 20 overs, handing Gujarat a 14 runs win. Lockie Ferguson (4/28) was the star in bowling for GT. Pant’s 29-ball 43 and Powell’s power-hitting kept Delhi in the game but pacers Ferguson and Mohammed Shami (2/30) did the job with some accurate bowling. Delhi could only manage 157/9.
