The Gujarat Titans have been having a roller-coaster season, as they started their winning streak in this season with a dramatic one-run victory against the Delhi Capitals. Despite having lost matches even after that, the Titans did not fail to bounce back on most of the successive occasions.
Coming into their home ground at the Narendra Modi Stadium, the Titans provided the most clinical effort on the field as they completed some of the most stunning catches in this edition of the competition, with probably this being the first game where a single chance has not gone down.
Sai Sudharsan’s diving catch is the perfect ‘cherry on top’ in the iconic fielding effort from the Gujarat Titans
Sai Sudharsan completed a stunning catch diving forward as he dismissed the impact player Venkatesh Iyer, who ultimately failed to deliver an actual impact, the role he was brought onto the field for.
He continued to keep the reputation for the Titans fielders that was started with Rashid Khan holding onto the two catches in the powerplay and then Jason Holder pulling off the most impactful effort on the field, almost being involved in every wicket between the fall of the third and eighth wickets in the game.
Venkatesh Iyer was introduced as an impact player for the second time this season; however, he failed to deliver on this occasion and was ultimately dismissed on the first ball of Arshad Khan’s final over, handing the third wicket of the game to the left-handed pacer.
UNSTOPPABLE IN THE FIELD 🔥

Massive mixup between Josh Hazlewood and Bhuvneshwar Kumar results in a dismissal
After the wicket of Venkatesh Iyer on the first ball of the 20th over of the game, RCB could have batted out their 20 overs with Bhuvneshwar Kumar still on the crease and looking good with the bat.
However, Josh Hazlewood failed to connect on the first ball of the over and tried to run one down to the other end, and in the mix, Jos Buttler aimed at the stumps, which found Hazlewood well within the crease.
The ball ran to the skipper Shubman Gill on the other end, and he ran Hazlewood out at the non-striker’s end, finding Hazlewood much short of his crease. This bowled RCB out with four balls still remaining in their innings.
Centurion Sai Sudharsan dismissed early against Bhuvneshwar’s tight lengths
Sai Sudharsan scored a staggering hundred in the last matchup against the RCB bowlers at their home ground in the Chinnaswamy Stadium. However, in a low-scoring game, he missed out after being dismissed early off Bhuvneshwar Kumar’s bowling.
Sai Sudharsan has been one of GT’s most productive batters in those phases of the game where the team needed a player to stir it through the overs. However, he nicked one from Bhuvneshwar Kumar, and Jitesh Sharma took a stunning grab behind the stumps to dismiss the inform GT opener.
