Sai Sudharsan continued his brilliant form with a blistering 87 off 46 balls as Gujarat Titans defeated Chennai Super Kings by eight wickets in IPL 2026 at the M. A. Chidambaram Stadium.
Chasing 159, Gujarat rode on strong starts from Shubman Gill (33) and Sudharsan before Jos Buttler finished unbeaten on 39 to seal the chase with 20 balls left. Earlier, Ruturaj Gaikwad anchored CSK with an unbeaten 74, but their 158/7 proved insufficient against Gujarat’s dominant top-order firepower.
