Gujarat Titans chased down 156 in just 15.5 overs, thanks to a blistering 43 off 18 balls from captain Shubman Gill, along with contributions from Jos Buttler (39) and Rahul Tewatia (27 not out).

Earlier, GT’s bowlers restricted RCB to 155 in 19.2 overs, with Arshad Khan picking up three wickets, while Holder and Rashid Khan claimed two wickets each to keep the opposition in check.

“An all-rounder like him, especially an overseas fast bowler, adds immense value to the balance of the side. His understanding of the game is reflected in the control he has over his lines and lengths. You saw that when a batter tried to lap him, he adjusted instantly. He’s a very smart cricketer. Having led teams before, he knows how to finish games as well. Overall, he’s a great addition to the GT side,” Bangar said on JioStar.

Meanwhile, former New Zealand cricketer Mitchell McClenaghan praised the way the Gujarat Titans led the chase, with captain Gill taking on Bhuvneshwar Kumar and Josh Hazlewood from the onset.
