At the Arun Jaitley Stadium in Delhi, during the 60th game of the 18th edition of the league between the Gujarat Titans and Delhi Capitals, Sai Sudharsan smashed his second IPL century. Through a dominant batting partnership with Shubman Gill, the Southpaw stole the game away from the home team from the very beginning and prevented them from ever getting it back.

The visiting team got off to a strong start thanks to Sai and Gill as they chased 200 on a dry surface that moved slowly throughout the game. GT had a flawless chase with no bumps at all while riding on the same. In the Powerplay overs, Sudharsan went crazy and immediately put the bowlers on the defensive.

After getting set, he enjoyed himself by chasing the bowlers while Gill took his time. Sudharsan was the star of the show, not only because of his explosive performance in the first six overs but also because he played a long innings and scored his second-ever IPL century.

In his stay in the middle, the Southpaw scored unbeaten 108 runs in 61 balls, which included 12 fours and four sixes. In the process, the star batter also became the leading run-scorer in the 18th edition of the tournament.

Gill targeted the bowlers in the middle overs, while Sudharsan played quickly at first. Despite the surface being slow, the GT captain put the bowlers on the defensive. He scored again another fifty-plus total, maintaining his strong season-long form. When he regained his feet, Gill chose the aerial route and ravaged the bowlers, but Sudharsan dealt more boundaries.

During his time in the middle, the right-hander hit three fours and seven sixes to score 93*(53). In addition to being the match’s high point, their combination demonstrated class and demonstrated how two reliable batters could individually chase down a difficult total in a Twenty20 match.
