Gujarat Titans captain Shubman Gill was extremely happy with his fast bowlers, who performed well with the new ball. He also praised players like Jason Holder and claimed that he is a very experienced cricketer. He also supported GT’s half-centuries Sai Sudarshan and Washington Sundar.
Gujarat Titans could not make a promising start to the season as they lost a few close games at the beginning of the season and then started their winning streak with their first win against Delhi Capitals where they won the match by just 1 run. The Titans have kept their foot on the accelerator since then and have quickly risen to the top of the points table.
After playing 12 matches, they now have the upper hand over all their opponents except Royal Challengers Bangalore, who have a clear chance of regaining their position at the top of the points table after tomorrow’s game against KKR.
Sai Sudarshan and Washington Sundar help GT achieve promising target of 169
Last season’s top scorer Sai Sudarshan looked in some great form this season too. Sudarshan was one of the best batsmen and scored his fifth half-century of the season in those challenging conditions in Ahmedabad.
Sudarshan scored 61 runs in just 44 balls and he scored these runs at a very important moment when it mattered most for the team. All-rounder Washington Sundar also made important contributions with the bat for the Titans.
After a bad start in the power play, he scored a brilliant score of 168 runs. 34/2 was the lowest score for Gujarat Titans in the power play this season.
I think we bowled very well – Shubhman Gill is grateful to GT Pacers
“As we talked about at the toss; it was very good. But I think we bowled very well. 170 runs on a wicket like this – we always knew it was going to be difficult. If we bowl well, we are outside leg stump and always in the game. We talked about that if we get closer to 160-170, I think it will not be easy for them, especially our bowling attack. With.
“So that was the conversation in between, and also, looking at their batting lineup, especially the top three, I think the plans work out perfectly fine. Yes, definitely,” said Shubman Gill on GT’s plans against the SRH top order.
“But at the same time, I think the way Sai and Washi batted took us close to 170 – at one point it looked difficult to get there – and also, the way we bowled in the powerplay – we are bowling very well in the powerplay. So congratulations to both our bowlers,” Shubman credited the GT batsmen for their brilliant performance on the challenging track.
Shubman Gill praised Jason Holder for his ‘experience’.
Shubman Gill was very happy to see Jason Holder making a great impact since being brought into the playing eleven in the IPL season. Gill praised Holder for his experience and the way he helped control the innings with the ball.
Gill said of the experienced West Indies all-rounder, “He is an experienced campaigner, and the kind of lengths he is bowling – he is very tireless for us, bowling four overs in a row in almost every game. It is not easy this season, but he is doing a great job for us.”
Returning to IPL after two seasons, Jason Holder has taken 13 wickets in this season of IPL. He has just played 6 matches in the competition.
