WATCH: Sai Sudharsan’s scores sensational century to help GT qualify for IPL 2025 playoffs

Gujarat Titans (GT) easily swatted aside Delhi Capitals’ (DC) challenge to win their IPL 2025 game by ten wickets on Sunday. The win was made possible thanks to Sai Sudharsan who scored his second ever century in the league. The left-handed batter’s first ton had come last season against Chennai Super Kings in Ahmedabad.

Sai Sudharsan on Sunday seemed to be batting on a different wicket as none of the bowlers could trouble the young batter. In the second ball of the 18th over, Sudharsan hit Kuldeep Yadav straight over the top for a six. Once he reached his ton, the batter fist-pumped and celebrated the moment with his teammate. 

Delhi Capitals now have their task cut out as far as their IPL playoff are concerned. Axar Patel and his men are set to take on Mumbai Indians and Punjab Kings in their next two games. The Capitals will have to win both matches in a bid to make it to the playoffs and also hope that both Mumbai and Lucknow lose their remaining encounters. 

Gujarat Titans coast home to easy win 

Needing 200 runs to win, Shubman Gill and Sai Sudharsan got to the target with all ten wickets intact and an over left to play. The winning hit came with Sudharsan pulling Vipraj Nigam for his fourth six of the innings. GT skipper Shubman Gill on the other hand hit seven sixes and four boundaries in his knock of 93 not out which came off 53 balls. Sudharsan was not out on 108 which came off 61 balls as the batter also took charge of the orange cap. 

Mustafizur Rahman who had come in for Mitchell Starc bowled three overs for 24 runs. T Natarajan was smashed for 49 runs from his three overs while skipper Axar Patel conceded 35 runs from his three overs. Kuldeep Yadav and Vipraj Nigam bowled four overs each for an identical 37 runs. 

For the home team it was KL Rahul who led the batting charge with his 112 not out. Rahul scored his fifth IPL ton and played a key role in DC reaching 199 runs on the board. The 33-year-old played some amazing shots with the highlight being his two sixes off Kagiso Rabada’s bowling.
