Delhi: Thanks to the best bowling of Mohammad Siraj (4/17) and the stormy batting of Washington Sundar, Gujarat Titans defeated Sunrisers Hyderabad by 7 wickets. In the 18th match of the Indian Premier League 2025, Gujarat won the toss and called the Sunrisers to bat first. The Sunrisers team, batting first, could score only 152 runs. In response to this, Gujarat performed brilliantly and won the match with 3.2 overs. This was Gujarat’s third win in the fourth matches in the season, while Sunrisers suffered a fourth consecutive defeat.
Importance of bowlers
Shubman Gill said after the match that bowlers have an important role in this format. Many people talk about big hitters, but in reality only bowlers help in winning the match.
Partnership with Washington Sundar
He further explained that he was discussed with Washington Sundar that we would play all the shots with the ground. Sundar was putting pads in the match against Mumbai, but due to the impact player rule, sometimes the schemes have to be changed. Gill praised Sundar’s batting and said that his performance was great.
Partnership and strategy
Gill further said that there was not much talk in the match, just focusing on playing good cricket shots. Once a 30-40-run partnership was formed, then it became easy to run the game according to its own. Gill also appreciated the energy of Mohammad Siraj. He said that the enthusiasm and energy that Siraj has during bowling and fielding has a positive effect in the team and inspires everyone.
