Commentary
Rashid Khan came back to haunt his former side with three sixes off the last four balls as Gujarat Titans defeated Sunrisers Hyderabad by 5 wickets to move to the top of the table in IPL 2022.
After Abhishek Sharma and Aiden Markram scored fifties to take SRH to 195/6, Umran Malik's fiery pace ripped through GT batting line up to put the Orange Army on top.
But Rahul Tewatia (40 not out off 21 balls) and Rashid (31 off 11 balls) had other ideas as the pair held their nerve to power GT to their seventh win of the season.
Needing 22 runs from the last over, Tewatia hit Marco Jansen for a six to begin the over and later Rashid hit three sixes off the last four balls, two in two to reach the target in the final delivery of the ultimate over.
Chasing 196, GT openers Shubman Gill and Wriddhiman Saha got off to a quick start before Malik got rid of the pair along with skipper Hardik Pandya and the in-form David Miller.
Gill scored 22 off 24 balls, while Saha top-scored with a 38-ball 68. For Sunrisers, Malik claimed five wickets for 25 runs with four of his wickets being clean bowled.
Earlier, sent in to bat, Opener Abhishek Sharma top-scored for SRH with a 42-ball 65 while Aiden Markram contributed 56 off 40 balls. Shashank Singh played a stunning cameo of 25 not out off just six balls towards the end to take SRH past 190.
For the Titans, Mohammed Shami took three wickets for 39 runs while Alzarri Joseph and Yash Dayal got one apiece.
