The Gujarat Titans (GT) returned to winning ways with a 38-run victory over the SunRisers Hyderabad (SRH) at the Narendra Modi Stadium on Friday, May 2. The 2022 IPL winner jumped to second place in the table with 14 points in 10 games.

Batting first, GT scored a mammoth 224/6 in 20 overs, thanks to half-centuries from Shubman Gill (76) and Jos Buttler (64). Sai Sudarshan also smashed a quickfire 48 off 23 deliveries. Senior left-arm pacer Jaydev Unadkat picked up three wickets.

In reply, Abhishek Sharma was the lone warrior for the SRH, scoring 74 off 41 deliveries. However, he lacked support at the other end and eventually scored 186/6, falling short by 38 runs. Mohammed Siraj and Prasidh Krishna picked up two wickets each.
