On Tuesday, Gujarat Titans put on a dominant display in all three departments, restricting Mumbai Indians to a mere 152/9 in response to their own impressive score of 207/6. Shubman Gill and the Afghanistan spin duo of Noor Ahmed and Rashid Khan were instrumental in securing a resounding 55-run victory for the Titans at Narendra Modi Stadium.
Although Cameron Green showed some positive intent with his 33-run knock, which included three sixes, Noor Ahmed ultimately castled him in the 11th over, putting Mumbai Indians in a precarious position. However, David Miller’s blazing 22-ball 46, Rahul Tewatia’s unbeaten 20 in just five balls, and Abhinav Manohar’s 42 off 21 deliveries during a crucial partnership of 71 runs with the South African helped the Titans secure a formidable total.
In pursuit of the mammoth target, Mumbai Indians lost their skipper Rohit Sharma early on, losing the battle of captains to his counterpart. Noor Ahmed (3/27) and Rashid Khan (2/27) then spun their web around Mumbai Indians’ batters, sharing five wickets between them.
With this win, Gujarat Titans have now moved up to the second spot on the points table with 10 points in seven matches.
