Pune, April 2 : Shubman Gill’s 84 off 46 balls powered Gujarat Titans (GT) to 171/6 against Delhi Capitals (DC) at Maharashtra Cricket Association Stadium here on Saturday. Gill was a class act, an embodiment of elegance and grace. The languid opener started off nicely against Mustafizur Rahman and Shardul Thakur, by punching them for boundaries early on. Though Mathhew Wade (1) and Vijay Shankar (13) lost their wickets cheaply, Gill kept the runs ticking for Gujarat. Skipper Hardik Pandya joined him and both put on 65 runs partnership for the third wicket. It took 32 balls for Gill to get to his fifty compared to 48 runs scored at the other 46 balls, which is a good pace at which the Indian opener batted. Khaleel Ahmed managed to get rid of Pandya for 31 off 26, but Gill continued with his style of cricket. He added 36 off 14 balls after getting to his half-century. Khaleel got Gill too in the 18th over of Gujarat’s innings. After his departure, Gujarat failed to accelerate. Rahul Tewatia (14 off 8) and David Miller (20 no off 15) tried their hands, but Mustafizur came out trumps against them with his cutters. For Delhi, their bowlers did well to stymie the onslaught in the death after removing Gill. Sent into bat, Delhi made early inroads. Kuldeep Yadav got a first-ball wicket off Shankar and Mustafizur struck in his first over to send back Wade. BDN SHK2204
