Gujarat Titans beat Lucknow Super Giants by 62 runs
That concludes the proceedings of this lopsided match. On Wednesday, Rajasthan will be facing Delhi at 7.30 pm IST (2 pm GMT). You can join us in advance for the build-up. Until then, it's goodbye and cheers!
Shubman Gill collects the Player of the Match award for his knock of 63 on this tricky surface. The Gujarat opener says that playing such a knock is quite pleasing. Tells that he didn't expect the ball to seam so much at the start. Feels that Lucknow didn't pitch it up much otherwise it would have been tougher. He is delighted to qualify and says that not a lot of people gave them a chance at the start. Shares that he has had a few back issues and hopes that he stays fit.
Hardik Pandya, the winning captain of Gujarat, says that he is very proud of his boys. Tells that they believed in themselves and it's a great effort to qualify for the playoffs even before playing the 14 games. Adds that even in the last game they never thought the game was over till it was over. Hardik shares that he wanted to make sure that they stay ruthless even when Lucknow were 8 down. He rates Ravisrinivasan Sai Kishore quite highly who gets some extra bounce from the surface due to his height. He praises Shubman Gill for his knock and tells that 144 is something he would have taken at the toss. He is delighted with the show of his bowlers and says that they ticked all the boxes. Mentions that it becomes important to believe that you win or lose as a team, and not as an individual. Credits his boys as they stood for each other and feels that it's important to stay close as a group.
Rashid Khan (3.5-0-24-4) comes up for a chat. The Afghan says that the couple of games which didn't go his way was due to his line and length. Shares that the wicket was helping in this match and he was bowling in the right areas. Mentions that the fast bowlers set the platform in the Powerplay, which helped the spinners to add more pressure. States that this is the crucial part of the competition, they have won, but it's all about the process and they have to still keep learning. Tells that he enjoyed the wicket of Jason Holder the most as the West Indian could have taken the game away, so he had planned to bowl that leggie.
KL Rahul, the captain of Lucknow, starts by saying that they knew it was a tricky wicket as that is how it has played here in the last couple of games. Praises his bowling group for restricting Gujarat to under 150 and feels that they should have batted a lot better. He opines that there were some poor shot selections. Hopes that they will learn from their mistakes. Feels that losses like these keep reminding you to turn up with your best performance and keep doing the best. Mentions that starting well in the Powerplay was the key as the pitch was offering good grip and scoring runs after the first six overs would have been tough. KL doesn't want to overanalyze a game like this. States that they want energy and intensity in the field and he is content with what they achieved in the field this evening.
Stay tuned for the interviews...
Earlier, it was a struggling batting show from Gujarat against a very disciplined bowling from Lucknow. Only Shubman Gill managed to come to terms with the nature of the surface as otherwise, it was a lacklustre performance from others. Rahul Tewatia's knock was the booster to take them over 140 and eventually, 144 turned out to be more than enough.
The chase never got going for Lucknow! It was a tricky wicket but the application was also lacking from their batters. Once the mainstay of Lucknow's batting, KL Rahul was dismissed, the rest of the batting line-up didn't show enough confidence. Gujarat bowled with great energy and the planning from Hardik Pandya was right on the money. The ploy to give one extra over to Mohammad Shami in his first spell led to the dismissal of KL Rahul and from thereon, Gujarat ruled the roost. Rashid Khan was too hot to handle, claiming a 4-wicket haul and Ravisrinivasan Sai Kishore was very impressive as well.
Wow, the last six wickets went down in the blink of an eye and it's a thumping win for Gujarat! They now have the letter 'Q' next to their name as they become the first team to book its ticket to the playoffs. Great way to storm into the next half of the tournament.

Rashid Khan To Avesh Khan OUT!
OUT! CAUGHT BEHIND! That's it! Rashid Khan grabs his fourth wicket and finishes things off! What a spell this has been from the magician! A googly this time, fuller ball, around middle and leg. Avesh Khan looks to heave this away but he misses. There is a loud shout for caught behind but the umpire says no. Wriddhiman Saha thinks he has heard a noise there and he convinces Hardik Pandya to opt for a review. The UltraEdge confirms there is some spike. The on-field decision has to be reversed. Gujarat win by 62 runs with 37 balls to spare and seal their spot in the playoffs!

Rashid Khan To Deepak Hooda OUT!
OUT! CAUGHT! Rashid Khan strikes for the third time and this time it is Mohammad Shami with a sharp running catch. It is looped up, full, on middle and leg. Deepak Hooda goes on one knee and tries to sweep it away. It takes the top edge and flies behind the keeper's head. Mohammad Shami runs in from short fine leg, to his right, to gather the catch.
Strategic break! Gujarat are all over Lucknow at the moment. Deepak Hooda is stuck at one end watching wickets tumble at the other end. The spinners are doing the magic for Gujarat. Lucknow still need 75 runs, but they just have 2 wickets in hand. Dushmantha Chameera walks out to bat now.

Floated delivery, full and around leg, this time Deepak Hooda sweeps it in front of square on the leg side and takes the first run quickly. He wants the second and Stoinis responds. The Aussie keeps on running with one eye on the fielder and doesn't realise that Hooda has stopped after taking off. Marcus has reached a point of no return. David Miller's throw from the deep is accurate and Wriddhiman Saha once again does the rest.

The bat and pad were close, Rashid wants to get it reviewed. Wriddhiman Saha is loud enough to tell that it's off the bat but Hardik Pandya goes with his bowler. A review wasted.

Strategic break! Gujarat have certainly put Lucknow on the back foot here by sending three of their main men back inside the Powerplay. Lucknow have their task cut out now. If they lose any more wickets now, the game will surely start sliding away from them. The Gujarat seamers have been on the money so far. Can they carry on with this momentum? To put more pressure on Lucknow, Rashid Khan comes into the attack now.

OUT! CAUGHT! Mohammad Shami strikes and sends back KL Rahul for the second time in this campaign. Gujarat have started this game just like they had envisioned. Mohammad Shami is surely elated with this wicket. KL Rahul was under the pump after facing a lot of dot balls. He tries to break free against a delivery short in length around off but does not hit it cleanly. The ball flies off the top edge and goes towards the keeper. Wriddhiman Saha backtracks, keeps his eyes on the ball and manages to gather it safely in his mitts. The move to give an extra over in this spell to Shami has paid off. Gujarat are on top!

A length ball, around off. This one grips and nips in a touch. KL Rahul tries to defend it out but the ball dies off his gloves and sneaks between his legs. He is unaware of where the ball is and takes his time to spot it.
