NEW DELHI: Gujarat Titans became the first team to enter the playoffs of the IPL 2023. They entered the playoffs after a magnificent 34-run victory over Sunrisers Hyderabad at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad on Monday. The win took the Titans to 18 points in 13 games. They are now assured of a top-two finish while SRH were stranded at 8 points from 12 games and joined Delhi Capitals in bowing out of the tournament. Former India wicket-keeper Parthiv Patel is impressed with the batting technique of Shubman Gill, who played a match-winning century knock.
Gill scored 101 off 58 balls and his 147-run partnership with Sai Sudharsan (47 runs) for the second wicket helped Titans put up a stiff 188/9.
