Having already qualified for the IPL 2023 Playoffs, the Hardik Pandya-led side ended RCB’s hope to enter the Playoffs, courtesy Shubman Gill’s unbeaten 104 off 52 deliveries.

Talking of the match, the Gujarat Titans won the toss and invited the Faf du Plessis-led side to bat first. On the back of an unbeaten century from former RCB skipper Virat Kohli, the side posted 197/5 in the 20 overs. However, this crucial knock from the RCB mainstay went in vain as the side failed to restrict the Gujarat Titans. On the back of a century knock from Gill and an all-important knock from Vijay Shankar, the GT chased the total with five balls to spare.
