Unstoppable Gill sends Titans to summit clash

A terrific century from Shubman Gill, his third in four games, stood in the way of an El Clasico final as defending champions Gujarat Titans reached the summit clash once again after dismantling Mumbai Indians in the second qualifier.

Gill put on a show in the first half of the game and went past 800 runs in the season as Titans posted a mammoth 233 on the board. While Mumbai Indians did come up with a commendable performance in the chase, given the numerous setbacks they suffered, they eventually fizzled out after Mohit Sharma’s entry at the death, crashing to a 62-run defeat.

Brief scores:

Gujarat Titans 233/3 in 20 overs (Shubman Gill 129, Sai Sudharsan 43) beat Mumbai Indians 171 in 18.2 overs (Suryakumar Yadav 61, Tilak Varma 43; Mohit Sharma 5/10) by 62 runs
