Shubman Gill showcased his immense talent once again as he hammered his third century of the season, leading the Gujarat Titans to a commanding total of 233/3 in their allotted 20 overs. Gill’s blistering knock of 129 off just 60 balls proved to be the cornerstone of the Titans’ imposing score. With valuable contributions from Hardik Pandya and Rashid Khan in the final overs, Gujarat Titans were able to set an enormous target for their opponents, the Mumbai Indians (MI).
MI began their chase on a positive note, with Tilak Varma, Cameron Green, and Suryakumar Yadav launching an assault on the Titans’ bowling attack in the initial overs.

By virtue of this triumph, the Gujarat Titans advanced to the title clash for the second consecutive season, joining their opponents for the day, the Mumbai Indians, and their counterparts in the final. This remarkable achievement further solidified the Titans’ credentials as one of the most formidable teams in the tournament.
