GONE! Rabada gets Smaran! The left-hander has looked uncomfortable throughout his stay at the crease, and ends up hitting it straight to Shubman Gill at mid-off. 3 wickets for Rabada! 

What a powerplay for the Titans!

SRH 34/4 (6)

Siraj drops a catch! Smaran goes for a pull shot against Rabada, it should've gone straight to Siraj at deep fine-leg, but looks like he misjudged the bounce, and it fell just short. Could that be costly for GT?

GT 31/3 (5.3)

Another fantastic over by Mohammed Siraj, nearly another maiden! Just 1 run off his third over. Ravichandran Smaran really struggling to find a gap, and he avoids the maiden by taking a run on the last ball.

SRH 30/3 (5)

GONE! Another one for Rabada! Ishan Kishan departs, Sunrisers Hyderabad are 3 wickets down! Huge, huge trouble for SRH early on. Edged and caught behind!

SRH 23/3 (3.1)

Ravichandran Smaran slams a lovely cover drive, and then Ishan Kishan gets 4 more in the third over, bowled by Siraj. This duo needs to stitch a partnership to bail SRH out here.

SRH 23/3 (3)

HUGE WICKET! Abhishek Sharma slams a 6 over long-off first ball, then comes down the track to try and hit big again, but plays it onto his own stumps! Kagiso Rabada strikes!

Ishan Kishan slams a flick over deep square-leg for 6 on the final ball of the over! Drama upon drama.

SRH 13/2 (2)

Unbelievable start by Siraj! He begins with a wicket-maiden. The wicket of Travis Head and not a single run conceded. Superb, superb stuff.

SRH 0/1 (1)

GONE! What a start for Gujarat Titans! Travis Head plays and misses the first 3 balls, looks to go big on the fourth ball, mistimes it, and it's caught at deep third-man. Stunning start for Mohammed Siraj!

SRH 0/1 (0.4)

We are back! The Sunrisers Hyderabad run chase is underway. The target is 169. Abhishek Sharma is opening, along with Travis Head, who comes on as the Impact Player. GT also bring in Rs 9.5 crore pacer Prasidh Krishna as the Impact Player.

It'll be Mohammed Siraj bowling first. Abhishek will be chasing the feat of 2,000 runs as an opener in the IPL; he is 34 away from it.

Rahul Tewatia ends the innings with a boundary! He helps it away through deep square-leg. 10 runs off the final over. Gujarat Titans end on 168/5 in 20 overs, after half-centuries from Sai Sudharsan and Washington Sundar. Overall, a good bowling effort by Sunrisers too.

GT 168/5 (20)

GONE! Sakib gets a second wicket! Great slower ball catches Washington by surprise. His attempted pull doesn't come off well, goes up in the air, Ishan Kishan makes terrific ground and takes a great catch!

50 off 33 for Washington.

GT 164/5 (19.5)

Half-century for Washington Sundar! He gets there off 32 balls. A great knock by the all-rounder. Second fifty of IPL 2026 for him.

GT 163/4 (19.3)

Some hitting from Washington Sundar! He hammers Eshan Malinga for 2 fours and a six! The first 4 is pulled away through square-leg, then another 4 scooped over fine-leg. But the 6 is the best shot of the game! It's a superb yorker by Malinga, but Sundar gets his bat down and flicks it away for 6 over deep square-leg. WOW!

He is up to 49 off 31 now.

GT 158/4 (19)

Great shot by Washington Sundar! Hint of width offered by Hinge and he slams it square for 4. However, the big shots aren't coming easily. A tidy over by Hinge overall.

GT need another 30 runs in the remaining 2 overs to reach 170.

GT 140/4 (18)

Washington Sundar, great shot! He concludes the 17th over by slamming a well-placed yorker for 4 through mid-wicket. Top timing from the all-rounder. Sundar and Holder will now look for some regular boundaries. 

GT 133/4 (17)

Huge wicket for Sunrisers! They've finally got the wicket of Sai Sudharsan. The left-hander goes for a last-minute reverse-lap shot, but ends up finding Praful Hinge at third man. Sakib Hussain's first wicket of the evening.

Sudharsan departs for 61 off 44.

GT 124/4 (16.2)

Short from Malinga and hammered through mid-wicket for 4 by Sai Sudharsan. He crosses 500 runs for the third IPL season in a row. The left-hander has grown into one of the most consistent batters in the league in recent years. Orange Cap winner last year, and he leads the race again this year.

GT 123/3 (16)

Washington Sundar slams Pat Cummins for a boundary over cover. He picked his gap well and got the reward. Cummins' spell comes to an end. A good day in the office for the SRH captain, he ends with figures of 1/20 in 4 overs.

GT 114/3 (15)

Boundary! 50 for Sai Sudharsan! He gets to the milestone with a sweep shot for 4 against Shivang. A steady knock from the left-hander, who had to hold his end after the loss of early wickets.

The 100-run mark comes up for the Titans in 13.3 overs.

GT 101/3 (13.3)

What a shot! Sai Sudharsan with another maximum, this one's an even better hit than the last. He slams it from the off-stump and deposits it for 6 back over the bowler's head. Up to 48 he goes.

GT 94/3 (13)

Sai Sudharsan goes big! Short and wide from Eshan Malinga, Sudharsan gives himself room and hammers it over deep point for 6. Sudharsan is slowly inching towards a half-century here.

GT 78/3 (11)

Washington Sundar slams a boundary first ball, straight down the ground. 10 overs done for Gujarat Titans, and it is certainly Sunrisers Hyderabad who are on top.

GT 68/3 (10)

GONE! Pat Cummins removes Nishant Sindhu! The left-hander goes for a big shot on the off-side, but doesn't time it well enough. Heinrich Klaasen at long-off takes a comfortable catch. 

GT 64/3 (9.3)

Lovely shot! Driven through the covers classily by Sai Sudharsan. The left-hander is starting to find the boundary a little more frequently now, that was his third of the evening. 

GT 63/2 (9)

Boundary for Sai Sudharsan! Firm hit over point as Eshan Malinga enters the attack. That shot takes Gujarat Titans past the 50-run mark. Sudharsan has started off slow, but he'll look to stick around after the loss of Gill and Buttler early.

GT 51/2 (7.1)

Maximum from Nishant Sindhu! This is an excellent start by the uncapped left-hander. Reddy comes in to bowl his third over, but Sindhu slams him over deep mid-wicket for 6.

Next ball, Sindhu tries an upper-cut but Praful Hinge saves a maximum at deep third-man. He nearly took the catch, but lost balance. Sindhu then slams 4 again!

GT 47/2 (7)

Great start for Nishant Sindhu! He slams a boundary on his first ball, and then comes down the track and hammers it through extra cover for 4 more on the last ball of the powerplay. Those shots slightly improve GT's score, but still it's GT worst powerplay score of IPL 2026.

GT 34/2 (6)

GONE! Praful Hinge has another! Jos Buttler goes for a ramp but misses, and it's caught behind by keeper Ishan Kishan. Strong appeal but the umpire said not out. SRH take the DRS review, and guess what, UltraEdge shows Buttler edged it.

Big trouble for GT early on!

GT 26/2 (5.1)

Boundary off Jos Buttler's blade as Reddy bowls his second over, but otherwise it's a really tidy over from the all-rounder. Only 5 runs off it, with 3 dots in a row to end. Sai Sudharsan trying a cover drive and then even a ramp, but they didn't come off.

GT 26/1 (5)

Another top over from Pat Cummins. Jos Buttler swings and misses multiple times. Just 4 runs off the fourth over. This is the ideal start for Sunrisers Hyderabad.

GT 21/1 (4)

Praful Hinge starts off by conceding just 2 runs in his first over, and taking the wicket of opposition skipper Shubman Gill. Top stuff from the young pacer. GT under pressure in the powerplay.

GT 17/1 (3)

GONE! Shubman Gill is back in the dugout! Praful Hinge bowls the third over and dismisses Gill with his second ball. Gill nudges it towards mid-on, but straight to the fielder! He is gone for 5 off 7.

GT 15/1 (2.2)

Shubman Gill put down! Nitish Reddy bowls the second over, and he creates a chance as Gill hits it straight back at him. However, the ball came really fast and Reddy failed to hold on to it with one hand. Next ball, Gill slams a firm square cut for 4!

Sai Sudharsan also hits a lovely cover drive for 4.

GT 15/0 (2)

Excellent start by Pat Cummins. Just 5 runs off the first over. The SRH captain keeps his length really tight and into the stumps, and doesn't allow Gill or Sudharsan to free their arms.

GT 5/0 (1)

We are LIVE! Shubman Gill and Sai Sudharsan are out to open for Gujarat Titans. It'll be SRH skipper Pat Cummins who will bowl the first over. Expect Praful Hinge from the other end.

Sudharsan gets off the mark second ball with a double.

GT 2/0 (0.2)

A lot of Gujarat Titans' success has come from their highly-successful opening duo of Shubman Gill and Sai Sudharsan. With the SRH bowling often leaking runs, they'll hope to get GT off to a good start once again.

Sunrisers Hyderabad XI vs GT: Abhishek Sharma, Ishan Kishan (wk), Heinrich Klaasen, Nitish Kumar Reddy, Salil Arora, Smaran Ravichandran, Pat Cummins, Shivang Kumar, Eshan Malinga, Sakib Hussain, Praful Hinge.

Travis Head should be the Impact Player when SRH come to bat.

Gujarat Titans XI vs SRH: Shubman Gill (c), Sai Sudharsan, Jos Buttler (wk), Washington Sundar, Jason Holder, Nishant Sindhu, Rahul Tewatia, Rashid Khan, Arshad Khan, Kagiso Rabada, Mohammed Siraj.

Mystery continues over the comeback of GT's Rs 9.5 crore pacer Prasidh Krishna. He is in the Impact Player list, as is Sai Kishore.

Sunrisers Hyderabad win the toss and opt to bowl! Pat Cummins calls 'heads' and so the coin falls. No hesitation in Cummins to elect to bowl first. SRH are going with the same team.

We are just about 10 minutes away from toss time at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad. It'll be interesting to see what the toss-winning captain elects to do.

Gujarat Titans have been without star pacer Prasidh Krishna in their last few games. He was supposed to make a comeback in the previous game, but GT went for a last-minute change with their 'Impact Player', bringing on spinner R Sai Kishore.

It'll be intriguing to see whether the Rs 9.5 crore star makes his long-awaited return today.

Gujarat Titans' middle-order came good in their previous match against Rajasthan Royals, with Washington Sundar and Rahul Tewatia playing quick knocks. GT will need them to step up on a more consistent basis, in case their reliable Top 3 has an off-day.

At least 5 players set to play today are in the race for the Orange Cap (most runs) in IPL 2026. SRH's Heinrich Klaasen leads the way with 494 runs, but teammates Abhishek Sharma (475) and Ishan Kishan (409), and GT openers Shubman Gill (462) and Sai Sudharsan (440) are not too far behind.

Today's contest could be decided by the battle between Sunrisers Hyderabad's power-packed batting unit and Gujarat Titans' excellent bowling unit. Those areas are the strong points for their respective sides, and could decide who wins today.

Gujarat Titans will wear a special lavender jersey in today's match against Sunrisers Hyderabad, as they express solidary to those fighting against cancer. The beautiful lavender jersey has now become a seasonal tradition for GT, and this will be the fourth year in a row that they'll wear the special jersey.

Sunrisers Hyderabad's dashing opener Abhishek Sharma is just 34 runs away from completing 2,000 runs as an opener in the IPL. Abhishek has been arguably the most influential person in SRH's trailblazing brand of attacking cricket.

Much like GT, Sunrisers Hyderabad appear to be peaking at the right time, with 4 wins in their last 5 games. Their incredible batting unit has been the reason for their success. They are on the same points as GT, and would take the No. 1 spot with a win today.

Gujarat Titans have turned their season around in recent weeks with 4 wins in a row. That has taken them from outside the playoff spots to 3rd in the points table, on the same number of points as 1st place. That means, a win today would take Shubman Gill and co. to the top!

Hello and welcome to the live coverage of the IPL 2026 encounter between Gujarat Titans (GT) and Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH)! We are at the largest cricket stadium in the world, the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad. 2 teams battling it out for No. 1 spot in the points table.
