Gujarat Titans cruised to a dominant victory over Delhi Capitals in a high-scoring Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025 contest, securing their spot as the first team to qualify for the playoffs. Sai Sudharsan starred with a blistering century, ably supported by Shubman Gill’s explosive 93, as GT chased down 199 with ease. Earlier, KL Rahul smashed an unbeaten 112 on his promotion to opener, powering DC to 199/3. Despite Rahul’s heroic ton, the DC bowlers lacked control and failed to defend the total. With GT’s win, both Punjab Kings and Royal Challengers Bengaluru also sealed playoff berths.

KL Rahul’s majestic century helps Delhi Capitals post 199/3

Promoted to open, Rahul capitalized on the opportunity with a stunning 112 not out off 65 balls, laced with 14 fours and 4 sixes. He anchored the innings masterfully, forming crucial partnerships with Abishek Porel (30), Axar Patel (25) and Tristan Stubbs (21 not out). Rahul played trademark cuts and elegant pulls, dominating both pace and spin, especially punishing Sai Kishore with a flurry of boundaries. He reached his hundred in the 19th over with two powerful sixes, marking his fifth IPL ton and first this season. Porel’s aggressive cameo and Axar’s quick burst pushed DC past 150. Stubbs added finishing touches with late boundaries, helping DC reach a competitive 199/3. Rahul also reached the 8000-run mark in T20s, becoming the third fastest to do so in 224 innings.

Chasing a tall total, Gujarat got off to a sensational start with Sudharsan and Gill dismantling the DC attack. Sudharsan struck a magnificent 108 off 61 balls with 12 fours and 4 sixes, showing timing, power, and poise. Gill was equally brutal, smashing 93 runs and ensuring the scoreboard ticked relentlessly. Their partnership rendered DC’s bowling toothless as even Kuldeep Yadav and Axar failed to make breakthroughs. The duo’s acceleration post powerplay ensured GT were well ahead in the chase. Sudharsan raised his second IPL hundred in style, while Gill narrowly missed his own. GT wrapped up the chase in under 19 overs without losing a wicket. The emphatic win not only confirmed GT’s playoff ticket but also pushed PBKS and RCB through due to net run rate dynamics.
