The race for the playoffs heats up - A win for the Gujarat Titans has really brought them into the mix for a top-four finish, and now the top five teams are separated by just 3 points. Chennai Super Kings in P6 are on 6 points, which gives GT a decent cushion as well. RCB, even with the hefty loss, stay in P2. Next up, we have a battle between two teams who are currently in different places in the table. Rajasthan Royals welcome Delhi Capitals to Jaipur on Friday, the 1st of May, in what could really be a make-or-break game for the Capitals. That game will begin at 7.30 pm IST (2 pm GMT), but you can join us a lot sooner for the build-up. Cheers!

POTM - Jason Holder! Holder gets the award for his bowling exploits of 2 for 29 in 4 overs to go along with 3 catches. He says that he is very happy with the win. Adds that it was one of those matches where everything clicked. He also gives credit to Kagiso Rabada for bowling well in the Powerplay, which set the tone for the side. On his catch when he was just about to collide with KG, he laughs and says that he was just trying to get close to the ball. He had Rabada in his peripheral vision, but he was never going to back off from that attempt. On his middle-order role, Jason says that he just focuses on delivering, no matter what the circumstances are. He just tries to do the best for the team and keep an open mind so that he can adapt in any situation.

The captain of Gujarat Titans - Shubman Gill says that this win feels satisfying. Feels that restricting RCB to under 160 was a tremendous effort from the bowlers. Admits that the fielding hasn't been at its best in phases, but tonight, the overall energy in the field was very good. Shubman says he was feeling in the zone with the bat, so he took the bowlers on. Mentions that Rahul Tewatia is an important player for the side and is pleased he was able to finish the game. Gill admits they lost a couple more wickets than they would have liked but it was good that everyone got some time in the middle.

The Presentation ceremony...

Recapping the first innings - Earlier in the day, Shubman Gill put Royal Challengers Bengaluru into bat first. The frontline duo of Kagiso Rabada and Mohammed Siraj bowled some lovely lines and lengths up front, but Virat Kohli launched a counter-attack, hitting KG for five fours in a row.Both Rabada and Siraj got early wickets, and KG also got his revenge on Kohli, after which the likes of Arshad Khan, Jason Holder and Rashid Khan came in and completely suffocated the RCB lineup by picking up wickets in a heap. Only Devdutt Padikkal showed some promise as he scored a brisk 40 before getting out. Holder, in particular, had a time to remember, picking up a couple of wickets and 3 catches as well, whereas Arshad finished with 3 wickets to his name.

GT's Jos Buttler is also up for a chat - Buttler starts off saying that it was a batting surface, and he feels that their batters did very well. Also adds that the catches they took were the difference maker in the first inning. About the new ball bowlers, Buttler gives credit to Kagiso Rabada and Mohammed Siraj for bowling exceptionally well with the new ball. He also says that Bhuvneshwar Kumar bowled very well, and it was his spell that kept the opposition in play.

Let's now hear from the RCB skipper - Rajat Patidar says the score was not good enough for this track. Credits the bowlers for the way they came out and stretched the game as far as they did. Patidar mentions that the good grass covering helped the fast bowlers. Feels Shubman Gill batted beautifully in the Powerplay and put them under pressure. Rajat says they lost too many wickets in the middle overs, which put them on the back foot. Praises Bhuvneshwar Kumar, calling him an experienced bowler, and highlights how incredible he has been for the team. Adds that it is a long tournament, and the focus is on taking it one game at a time. The RCB skipper shares that they are not looking at the points table, with the aim simply being to play good cricket.

Not enough runs on the board - There was a bit in this pitch, and the seamers did get some movement early on, but RCB didn't have enough on the board. Bhuvneshwar Kumar was prolific yet again, uprooting all of GT's top three batters, and he's now picked up 17 wickets, as many as he picked up in all of last season. Josh Hazlewood was surprisingly off colour today, and the likes of Romario Shepherd and Suyash Sharma did well to pick up wickets and keep the fight alive, but they were eventually blown away, thanks to GT's attacking intent.

Beating RCB at their own game - Gujarat Titans were chasing a middling total of 156 runs, but they were pretty aggressive right off the blocks. Shubman Gill, in particular, was the enforcer early on, scoring 43 runs off just 18 balls, and that really got his side ahead in the game. Jos Buttler too played a quickfire cameo, and it seemed like GT would win the game without breaking a sweat. However, the Titans forgot to take their foot off the pedal once they were in the clear and kept losing wickets at regular intervals, allowing RCB a sniff, but in the end, the score was a small one, and the top order had done enough damage.

Comeback complete - Gujarat Titans had lost their previous game against Royal Challengers Bengaluru earlier this season, but they have now avenged that defeat, picking up their fifth win of the season as well. RCB, on the other hand, suffer their third defeat of the season, and stay on 12 points, but from 9 games now.

Suyash Sharma To Rashid Khan

FOUR! Rashid Khan hits the winning runs. Gujarat Titans come up trumps against the defending champions. They win by 4 wickets with 25 balls to spare. Suyash Sharma gives the ball a bit of air, on a nagging and outside off. Rashid backs away and shimmies down the track as well. He reaches out and thumps it over cover for a boundary to seal the win.

15.4

Suyash Sharma To Rashid Khan

Flighted delivery, full and around the off stump. Rashid Khan sinks to a knee and reaches out in front. He rolls his wrists over the ball to control the sweep. Plays it all along the ground through square leg. Tim David tidies up in the deep by moving to his right. A couple of more runs.

15.3

Suyash Sharma To Rahul Tewatia

Short and sliding in at the hips. Tewatia pivots on the back foot and pulls it through backward square leg for a single.

15.2

Suyash Sharma To Rahul Tewatia

Shorter and flatter, outside off. Tewatia cuts it hard and through the vacant backward point region. It is cut off by the deep fielder by getting around to his right. Two runs taken.

15.1

Suyash Sharma To Rahul Tewatia

FOUR! Lovely shot! Tossed up by Suyash, it is the googly, a bit too full, outside off. Tewatia picks the wrong'un and goes with the turn. He stays leg side of the ball and lofts it inside out over cover. There is no protection in the deep and the ball reaches the fence. 7 more needed for GT.

14.1

Romario Shepherd To Rahul Tewatia

Wide given for height. RCB are a bit bemused by that call. Rajat Patidar has taken the review. Dug in short by Romario Shepherd, over off, Rahul Tewatia lets it through to the keeper. The Ball Tracking confirms that the ball went past Tewatia at 1.79 metres, with his head measured at 1.75 metres. So, the wide call stands.

Suyash Sharma To Rashid Khan

Half a shout for LBW! Suyash sticks to the wrong'un and drags the length back a bit, on middle. Rashid Khan leans forward to defend and just about squeezes an inside edge onto the front pad.

Wow, GT lose another wicket and they still need 15 more to win. Rashid Khan walks out to bat at number 8.

13.5

Suyash Sharma To Jason Holder OUT!

OUT! CAUGHT! Jason Holder holes out. Suyash serves the googly, on a length, on middle. Holder gets on the front foot and uses his long reach to play the slog sweep. The ball spins back in to catch the inner half of the bat. Jason fails to get the distance on the shot and picks out the deep mid-wicket fielder. Devdutt Padikkal takes a safe catch close to his chest, a couple of metres away from the boundary cushions. GT are 6 down now for 141, still needing 15 more runs.

13.4

Suyash Sharma To Rahul Tewatia

Around off, full in length. Rahul drops it beside the strip on the off side and gets to the other end.

13.4

Suyash Sharma To Rahul Tewatia

Wide! Sprayed well down leg, Tewatia walks inside the line to shovel it past short fine leg but misses. Jitesh Sharma moves to his right and gets a hand on it. He seems to have hurt his fingers in the process but shakes off the pain.

13.3

Suyash Sharma To Jason Holder

Quicker through the air, full and in line with the off stump. Jason looks to cover the line with a straight bat. It goes off the outside edge to short third and the batters take a quick single.

Suyash Sharma To Jason Holder

Out comes the wrong'un, full and on middle. Holder picks it from the hand and lunges for the block.

13.1
