0.4 OUT! TAKEN IN THE DEEP! Siraj with a big, big wicket and RR's opening stand lasts just 4 balls in the all-important knockout game. Siraj hits the hard length, on a tighter line, angling from middle to leg. Jaiswal is a bit rushed on the pull shot and mistimes it in the air, sailing it only as far as Prasidh Krishna at deep backward square leg. Krishna runs in a few steps off the ropes, crouches and takes a fine catch. The Royals are 2/1. 2/1

| Vaibhav Sooryavanshi | 96 | 47 | 8 | 7 | 204.25 |

17.2 OUT! STRAIGHT UP AND TAKEN! Once again, Sooryavanshi falls short after knocking on the doors of a century. Rabada bowls a well-directed short ball, angling it outside off. Vaibhav Sooryavanshi tries to carve it over point but gets a thick edge and the ball airs straight up the chimney towards deep third where Prasidh Krishna takes a good low catch. A special batting display from the youngster, and he has received a huge standing ovation from the crowd and his teammates as well. Rajasthan Royals are 172/6. 172/6

| Dhruv Jurel Wk | 7 | 6 | 1 | 0 | 116.66 |
|
1.5 OUT! CAUGHT EASILY BY GILL! First Siraj and now Rabada strikes in his first over to dent the Royals. Rabada spears it on a fuller length at 146.4 kph and slants it into the batter. Dhruv Jurel tries to flick it off the pads, over the leg side, but closes the bat face early and ends up getting a massive leading edge. The ball gets sliced and lobbed behind mid off, where Shubman Gill backpedals a bit and takes a simple catch around his chest. 9/2

9.3 OUT! TAKEN! Jason Holder strikes big for the Titans. He serves this fuller and angling into the pads. Riyan Parag plays his favourite pick-up shot off the pads, whipping it. He gets a good connection but just does not get enough elevation on the shot. It flies towards deep mid-wicket, where Kagiso Rabada takes a couple of steps back, settles under it and takes a fine reverse cup catch a couple of inches ahead of the ropes. Parag stands there in disbelief, but once again, he has failed to convert his start. It has been his story of the season. 101/3

| Dasun Shanaka | 3 | 9 | 0 | 0 | 33.33 |

11.3 OUT! CAUGHT BEHIND! Jason Holder is turning the game around for Gujarat, and we have seen this before this season. He bends his back and bowls a well-directed bumper on the body of the batter. Dasun Shanaka tries to get inside the line and hook it away but gets tucked up. He only manages to glove it behind, where Jos Buttler makes no mistake. 17th wicket of the season for Holder, and this is now his best IPL campaign with the ball. Rajasthan Royals are 109/4 now. 109/4

| Jofra Archer | 7 | 4 | 0 | 1 | 175 |

12.4 OUT! EDGED AND GONE! Six and out for Archer against Prasidh. Krishna pushes the length up and delivers it in the channel on off at 146.3 kph. Archer hangs on the back foot and swings hard, aiming to go down the ground. The ball catches the outside edge and the keeper, Jos Buttler, gobbles it up with ease. RR lose half their side now. 118/5

12.5 OUT! HIT WICKET! Would you believe it? Once is rare, but twice in two games is just beyond expectations. Brijesh Sharma bowls a full toss, around off, Sai Sudharsan opens the bat face and drives it away through cover-point as the ball races to the fence. However, just like in the last game, the bat turns in Sai's hand, and he loses control of it. It flips over his head and crashes on the top of the stumps. Sai is just standing there in disbelief, and Gill at the other end is down on his knees in shock. A very unfortunate end to a fantastic 167-run opening stand. 167/1

| Shubman Gill C | 104 | 53 | 15 | 3 | 196.22 |

15 OUT! PLUMB IN FRONT! Jofra Archer strikes, but the damage has been done. This is fired in full and around middle, Shubman Gill stays deep inside his crease and tries to slog it across the line, but misses the ball completely, getting hit on the pads right in front of the stumps. Jofra Archer did not even bother appealing and went on a celebratory run, and the umpire raised his finger. Gill knows that this is out and does not wait to take the review. The GT skipper walks back to a standing ovation from the entire dugout and the Gujarat fans, but he would be a bit disappointed not to stay there till the end. 182/2

17.1 OUT! IN THE AIR AND GONE! Washington Sundar holes out and Donovan Ferreira makes no mistake this time. A leg-cutter by Burger, bowled into the surface, around off. Sundar hangs back and tries to loft it on the rise. One hand comes off the bat handle, and he gets the height but not the distance. Donovan Ferreira charges across to his left from long on and takes a safe catch close to his chest. GT are 3 down for 201, needing 14 more runs. 201/3
