Aiden Markram to Washington Sundar. Off break length ball, outside off stump on the front foot driving, Played to long off for 1 run, fielded by Pooran. That's it! Gujarat Titans cruise to a comfortable seven-wicket victory. The openers laid a solid foundation, although Sai Sudharsan couldn't convert his start, falling for 15 off 14 deliveries. From there, it was all about composure and class. Shubman Gill and Jos Buttler stitched together a commanding partnership, both bringing up fluent half-centuries to put the chase firmly in control. Towards the finish, Washington Sundar and Rahul Tewatia added the finishing touches with positive intent. It was a tough outing for the Lucknow Super Giants bowlers, who struggled to break the key stand and couldn't stem the flow of runs once the partnership settled in. Prasidh Krishna is the Player of the Match.
