Sai Sudharsan, Shahrukh Khan heroics in vain for GT

Batting first, Gujarat Titans managed an impressive score of 200-3. The start for GT was not convincing, as both openers perished cheaply.

Wriddhiman Saha (5) was caught at short third man off Swapnil Singh. Shubman Gill (16) was brilliantly caught at long-on by Cameron Green as he attempted to take on comeback man Glenn Maxwell.

Sai Sudharsan (84* off 49) and Shahrukh Khan (58 off 30), though, lifted Gujarat Titans, adding 86 for the third wicket. Sudharsan continued his impressive form, striking eight fours and four sixes.

Shahrukh also made his batting promotion count, slamming three fours and five sixes in his maiden IPL fifty. Following Shahrukh's dismissal, David Miller (26* off 19) played a handy cameo.
