Hyderabad, April 6: Mohammed Siraj was at his devastating best as Gujarat Titans handed Sunrisers Hyderabad a crushing 7-wicket defeat, marking SRH’s fourth consecutive loss in the 2025 IPL season.
Opting to bowl first, the Titans were all fire from the start. Siraj blew the top off SRH’s batting, ending with a phenomenal 4/17, including the key wickets of Abhishek Sharma, Ishan Kishan, and Aniket Verma. He was ably supported by R Sai Kishore (2/24) and Prasidh Krishna (2/25). Despite a late cameo from skipper Pat Cummins (4 and 6 in the final over), SRH could only manage 152/8 in 20 overs.
The chase got off to a wobbly start for GT as Sai Sudharsan and Jos Buttler departed early. But then came the game-changing partnership between Washington Sundar (49 off 29) and Shubman Gill (61 off 43)**. The duo rescued GT with calculated aggression and classy strokeplay. Sherfane Rutherford (35 off 16) added the finishing touches with a flurry of boundaries as GT chased down the target in 16.4 overs.
