12.3 OUT! OFF STUMP UPROOTED! Rabada unleashes a 141.6 kph thunderbolt. He keeps it tight around off and gets it to angle away just enough. Jaiswal shuffles back to create room and swings through the line, looking to slap it through the off side. But he is beaten for sheer pace. The ball whistles past the bat and crashes into the off stump, sending it flat on the ground. A massive wicket for the Titans at this stage with one of the set batters gone. Rabada's reaction says it all, more relief than celebration. A timely breakthrough for the home side as they try to claw things back heading into the death overs. 126/2

6.2 OUT! CAUGHT! The captain takes matters into his own hands. Rashid drags the length back, bowling it on off and middle and he gets the ball to turn back in a bit. The length is neither full enough to slog sweep, nor is it short enough to pull. Vaibhav Sooryavanshi ends up just dragging it towards deep mid-wicket, where Glenn Phillips takes a simple catch. 70/1

| Dhruv Jurel Wk | 75 | 42 | 5 | 5 | 178.57 |
|
19.3 OUT! CAUGHT BEHIND! Finally, something positive with the ball for Mohammed Siraj. Siraj goes for the slower bumper again and really digs it in. The line is tighter around the off stump and again, Dhruv Jurel reaches for it to ramp. Jurel is undone by the height and the lack of pace here as he ends up gloving it behind. Jos Buttler makes no mistake and that marks the end of a fine knock from Jurel. 205/6

| Riyan Parag C | 8 | 4 | 0 | 1 | 200 |
|
13.2 OUT! CAUGHT! A soft dismissal, and RR's skipper's stay at the crease is cut short. Prasidh Krishan bowls this at 142.3 kph, lands this on a good length and around off. Riyan Parag goes with hard hands to push it away and gets a bit late into the shot as well. The ball flies off the outer half of the bat, wide of point, where Kumar Kushagra moves to his left, and almost makes a meal of it, but holds on to it. 135/3

| Shimron Hetmyer | 18 | 8 | 1 | 2 | 225 |
|
15.3 OUT! TAKEN! A stellar effort in the deep from Mohammed Siraj, and the Titans do see the back of Shimron Hetmyer. Ashok Sharma does take a bit of a risk and goes full and straight, serving the ball in the slot. Hetmyer clears the front leg and pummels it flat and hard to the left of long on. Siraj runs across hard and nearly misjudges it but slams the brakes and puts in a horizontal dive to cling onto it. 165/4

16.1 OUT! CAUGHT! Another one bites the dust and the Gujarat Titans are fighting back here. Short of a length from Kagiso Rabada, around off and the ball hurries onto the batter. Donovan Ferreira tries to take it on but ends up skewing it high towards deep mid-wicket. Glenn Phillips settles himself just inside the ropes and takes a simple catch, reducing RR to 166/5. 166/5

10.4 OUT! IN THE AIR AND GONE! Bishnoi strikes in his first over and gets the big fish. GT are 107/1, chasing 211. Not the best of balls Bishnoi has bowled, but he won't mind getting a wicket. A drag-downer, googly on middle and leg, there to be hit, and Sudharsan knew it. Shapes up for the big swing over deep square leg but could not keep it down, skewing it off the top edge straight to Deshpande at deep backward square leg instead. 107/2

| Kumar Kushagra | 18 | 14 | 3 | 0 | 128.57 |

8 OUT! CAUGHT! A bit of magic on the boundary ropes from Shimron Hetmyer hands the Royals their first wicket. Riyan Parag flights it up and bowls it just across the right-hander. Kumar Kushagra goes on one knee and looks to smoke it over cow corner but ends up lifting it straighter towards long on. The ball seems to be just sailing over but Hetmyer settles himself just inside the ropes, takes it over his head and manages to flick it back up before he goes over the ropes. He casually walks back in to pouch it safely and the replays confirm it is a clean catch. End of a 78-run opening stand for GT. 78/1

| Jos Buttler Wk | 26 | 14 | 5 | 0 | 185.71 |

13.1 OUT! CAUGHT IN THE DEEP! This is like a hammer blow on the Titans as they lose the set Buttler. 100th T20 wicket for Nandre Burger. Short and angled in outside off, and it hurries onto Buttler quicker than he expects. Gets big on him too, the angle from around the wicket making it awkward to put away cleanly. Buttler commits to the pull but cannot keep it under control, as the ball goes off the top edge towards deep fine leg and Sandeep dives forward to scoop the ball. 107/1 becomes 133/5 now and things are looking ominous for the hosts as they still need 78 from 41 balls. 133/5

| Glenn Phillips | 3 | 4 | 0 | 0 | 75 |

12.1 OUT! IN THE AIR AND CAUGHT! Bishnoi gets his second and Deep Dasgupta on air mentions that he completes 200 T20 wickets and is the youngest Indian to do so. A flat googly on off, on a length, sliding into the batter. Phillips backs away to muscle it downtown but cannot free his arms as he is cramped for room. Hence, he does not get enough power on the shot to clear the ropes. Chips it tamely towards long on and Archer comes charging in off the boundary, dives forward and takes a fine catch. Gujarat Titans are 127/3, needing 84 off 47 balls. 127/3

| Washington Sundar | 4 | 2 | 1 | 0 | 200 |
|
12.3 OUT! CAUGHT! The slide continues for the Titans. Full in length and on the pads, there to be hit and Sundar's eyes light up to go for another big one. He tries to get under it and launch over deep mid-wicket, but the room just is not there. Plinks straight to deep mid-wicket instead. A simple catching practice for Ravindra Jadeja stationed in the deep. 107/1 becomes 131/4 for the Titans in the chase of 211 runs. 131/4

| Rahul Tewatia | 12 | 6 | 1 | 1 | 200 |
|
14.3 OUT! CAUGHT BEHIND! Bishnoi responds strongly with a 4-for and lets out a huge roar. Dishes out a googly outside off, and the over-spin does the trick. Tewatia shapes to cut it behind point but the ball grips and bounces a bit, and kisses the top edge before going into Jurel's gloves. A sharp take by the keeper. Gujarat Titans are 155/6, needing 56 from 33 balls. 155/6

14.5 OUT! SHAHRUKH KHAN IS RUN OUT! It is going downhill for the Titans ever so rapidly now. Full and tossed up outside off, Rashid drills it to sweeper cover. Jadeja moves to his right from deep cover point, stops it cleanly and fires in a flat, quick throw at the striker's end. Shahrukh is called for the third but is caught struggling to get home at the striker's end. Perhaps they did not notice it was Jadeja out there. You simply do not take on that arm. The keeper collects a fairly rocket throw by Jadeja and whips the bails off with Shahrukh out of his crease. 161/7

19.5 OUT! CAUGHT! A fine catch under pressure from Jofra Archer and you can see the delight on the RR's skipper's face. Riyan Parag is absolutely pumped. Tushar Deshpande goes full and wide. Rashid Khan extends his arms and reaches for it, forcing the lofted shot wide of deep backward point. Rashid just doesn't get enough power on it but Archer covers plenty of ground to his right and slides across to cling onto the ball with both hands. A 6 to send up into a Super Over as RR now need 7 runs off one ball. 204/8
