In a gripping encounter at the Punjab Cricket Association Stadium, the Gujarat Titans showcased their spin prowess to secure a crucial win against the Punjab Kings in the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024.
Winning the toss and opting to bat first, Punjab Kings got off to a decent start with Sam Curran and Prabhsimran Singh laying a solid foundation. However, the Titans' spin trio of Rashid Khan, Noor Ahmad, and R Sai Kishore turned the tables with their disciplined bowling, picking up crucial wickets at regular intervals. Despite a late cameo from Harpreet Brar, Punjab Kings were restricted to a below-par total of 142 runs in their allotted 20 overs.

Chasing 142 for victory, Gujarat Titans faced an early setback with the dismissal of Wriddhiman Saha. However, Shubman Gill and Sai Sudharsan steadied the ship with a composed partnership. The Kings fought back with Liam Livingstone's double strike, but Rahul Tewatia's explosive knock of 36* off just 18 balls tilted the scales in favor of the Titans. Despite losing a few wickets towards the end, Gujarat Titans secured a convincing win by 3 wickets and 5 balls to spare.
