League leaders Gujarat Titans choked Kolkata Knight Riders’ chase of 199 to send the defending champions to their fifth defeat in eight matches. While KKR plunged into doubt, the Titans took another step towards the play-offs.
Skipper Shubman Gill scored a 55-ball 90, while Sai Sudharsan (52 off 34) and Jos Buttler (41 not out off 23) made substantial contributions as the Titans, put into bat, scored a challenging 198-3. It was Sudharsan’s fifth fifty this season.
