NEW DELHI: In a high-stakes IPL final, B Sai Sudharsan showcased his prowess with a stunning knock of 96, propelling defending champions Gujarat Titans to an imposing total of 214/4 against the Chennai Super Kings. Sudharsan's aggressive innings, consisting of eight boundaries and six towering sixes off just 46 balls, set the stage for an exhilarating clash at the grand finale.
After being put in to bat, Gujarat Titans faced an early scare when Tushar Deshpande had Shubman Gill flicking a delivery, only for Deepak Chahar to drop a regulation catch at short fine leg. Gill couldn't capitalise on the reprieve, as MS Dhoni's brilliance behind the stumps resulted in his dismissal for a brisk 39 off 20 balls.
