18.2 OUT! CAUGHT AND BEHIND! A sharp grab from Sanju Samson! Tushar varies his length as he goes very full, around the fifth stump line, Sai shapes up to whip it away but gets an inside edge and it travels quickly behind the wicket. Samson is equal to the task as he dives to his right and snaffles it. A marathon knock from Sai Sudharsan comes to an end as he departs for 82 (53). 187/5

2.1 OUT! BOWLED'EM! A snorter of a delivery and Jofra enjoys it to bits. He runs in full tilt from over the stumps, at 148 kph. He goes full and angles the ball into the batter, from off, Shubman Gill prods forward tentatively to push it straight, but plays all over the wrong line. And due to the huge yawning gap between the bat and pad, the ball nips back to sneak through and the off stump is pegged back. A rare failure for Gill in Ahmedabad as he departs for 2 (3) and GT are 14/1. 14/1

10 OUT! LBW! Excellent review from the Royals and Maheesh Theekshana has broken through for them. Pushed through by Theekshana, on middle, on the shorter side, Jos has a swipe across the line but the ball skids through to go under the blade and hit him on the back thigh. Sanju Samson has a word with the bowler and takes the review. The UltraEdge shows no bat and the Ball Tracking shows three reds with the ball hitting the leg stump. Theekshana is pumped as he lets out a roar. Jos Buttler falls for 36 (25) and the Titans are now 94/2. 94/2

15.4 OUT! STUMPED! Maheesh Theekshana gets his man! Shahrukh shows his cards early as he gives the bowler the charge and Theekshana spots it. Fires it full and wide on off, near the tramline, Khan reaches out to flay it away on the off side but misses. Sanju gathers it cleanly and does the rest with Khan well short. Sherfane Rutherford is the new batter. 156/3

16.1 OUT! EDGED AND GONE! Sherfane Rutherford can do some serious damage at this stage in the game and this is a massive wicket for the Royals. Pushed across the left-hander, on a good length, Sherfane reaches out to work it away on the off side with a horizontal bat. The outside edge is found and the keeper, Sanju Samson takes it with ease to his left. Titans have lost 2 wickets in 4 balls and they are now 163/4. 163/4

19 OUT! TAKEN! Yashasvi Jaiswal pulls off a stunner! Tushar keeps the line near the tramline on off, on a short of a length and does not offer much pace. Rashid walks across his stumps and goes for the no-look pick-up shot. Lifts his front leg as he plays the shot, but fails to get it wide enough of the man at square leg inside the circle. Jaiswal puts in a dive to his right and holds on. Rashid falls for 12 (4). GT are now 201/6 with an over to go. 201/6

1.2 OUT! TAKEN! The plan comes to fruition for the Gujarat Titans! Yashasvi Jaiswal has picked out the fielder in the deep to perfection and he cannot quite believe it. Arshad serves it full and gets a hint of away movement. Jaiswal sees the width on offer and throws his hands at it. Does not bother to keep it along the ground, but neither does he get the desired power nor the gap. Hits it straight down the throat of Rashid Khan at deep point, who moves a bit to his left, and takes a reverse-cup catch around his face. 10/1

12.2 OUT! CAUGHT! The change of bowling works like a charm for the Gujarat Titans! Prasidh bashes the hard length, over off, Sanju rises with the bounce and is airborne while playing the shot. Tries to glide it away on the off side but gets an outside edge and it flies quickly towards short third. Sai Kishore gets on his knees and takes a safe catch around the waist. Samson falls for 41 (28) and this is a big blow for RR. 116/5

2.2 OUT! TAKEN! Mohammed Siraj strikes now and Rajasthan Royals have been rocked early! Just before this ball, another slip was added and short third was pushed back onto the fence. Siraj digs it in short, over off, Rana arches back and tries to use the pace by playing the ramp. It goes flat and straight to deep third where Kulwant Khejroliya stays low and takes it around his waist. 12/2

6.4 OUT! Caught behind, or not? An appeal for the catch, and the finger is raised. GT's players are overjoyed, but Riyan Parag is going nowhere and has opted for a review, challenging the on-field decision. Too full, and going across off, Riyan Parag tries to drive through the covers but gets a thick outside edge. Jos Buttler takes a fine catch behind the wickets. UltraEdge shows a huge spike, but still, Parag looks disappointed as he believes that the spike came when the bat grazed the surface. But the decision has been made and Parag makes a slow walk back to the dugout. An important wicket for GT and Kulwant Khejroliya makes an impact straightaway. 60/3

7.4 OUT! IN THE AIR AND TAKEN! Sai Sudharsan takes an excellent catch, and Rashid opens his arms wide with a relaxing smile on his face. He dishes out a googly, on a length, angling on the leg stump line, Dhruv Jurel rocks back into the crease and shapes up to pull it aerially. However, he does not get enough space to work with but still goes through his shot. Airs it only as far as Sai Sudharsan who takes a good low catch. Dhruv Jurel departs on 5 (4). 68/4

16 OUT! IN THE AIR AND GONE! CAUGHT! The writing is on the wall for RR now as they lose their last hope in Shimron Hetmyer. Prasidh Krishna continues to hit the hard length, skidding onto the body, on the leg stump line. Shimron Hetmyer mistimes the pull shot, as the ball bounces a bit extra off the deck. Hettie hits it only as far as Sai Kishore stationed at deep backward square leg. Wicket number three for Prasidh Krishna. And a fine inning of 52 off 32 from the strong Caribbean comes to an end. 145/8

13.2 OUT! LBW! The finger is raised this time! Shubham Dubey asks his partner and takes the review. Fuller than the previous delivery and it is the googly, on middle, Dubey presses forward and tries to work it away on the leg side with a closed bat face. The ball sneaks past the inside edge and hits Shubham on the front pad. There is no bat involved and the Ball Tracking comes up as three reds with the ball crashing into the off stump. Dubey takes a review with him, and RR slip further. 119/6

15.3 OUT! IN THE AIR AND THE SKIPPER TAKES IT THIS TIME! Hard length from Skiddy, skidding on the surface and coming off quickly on the batter, on top of middle, Jofra Archer finds the ball a bit high around his chest level but goes for the pull shot and ends up slicing it in the air. It lobs straight into the safe hands of Shubman Gill stationed at mid off. Rajasthan Royals continue to slip as they are 144/7 now. 144/7

19.2 OUT! GONE! CAUGHT! Gujarat Titans win in a commanding fashion and this marks their sixth win over Rajasthan Royals in the IPL. Also, as per the on-air commentators, RR have been bowled out for the first time after May 2023. Coming to the delivery, Sai Kishore bowls flat and full, drifting into the leg stump line. Maheesh Theekshana charges ahead and tries to clear long off, but gets no real timing on it as he does not quite reach to the pitch of the ball. Airs it to long off, where the ball dips ahead of the fielder. Sai Sudharsan moves forward and snaffles a good low catch. 159/10

16.5 OUT! GONE! CAUGHT! Sai Kishore gets his first wicket of the evening and RR lose their 9th wicket! Sai Kishore bowls an in-dipper carrom ball, on a fuller length, just around off, Tushar Deshpande sits down on his knee and tries to slog it aerially behind deep mid-wicket. But gets neither the timing nor the distance correct. Airs it to the leg side, where Rashid Khan runs to his right from deep square leg and takes a fantastic catch on his haunches with a slide. 150/9
