Gujarat Titans team captain Shubman Gill and opening pair Sai Sudarshan's bat was seen speaking strongly in the match against Chennai Super Kings. In this match, Gujarat team, which came to bat first after losing the toss, was successful in reaching 231 runs in 20 overs on the basis of excellent centuries by Gill and Sudarshan.
In this match, while Gill scored 104 runs, Sudarshan also managed to score 103 runs. Along with playing century innings, both the batsmen have also made some special records in IPL. This was Gill's fourth century in T20 cricket on the Ahmedabad ground and he is the third player to score four centuries on the same ground in this format. The first number in this list is Chris Gayle, who has played 5 century innings in T20 cricket at Mirpur ground.
This is the 17th season of the Indian Premier League, in which this is only the second time so far that both the opening batsmen of the same team have been successful in scoring centuries in the same match. This is the third time in the history of IPL that a team has scored two centuries in a match. Before this match, this feat was seen for the first time in the year 2016 in the match played between Royal Challengers Bangalore and Gujarat Lions.
This feat was achieved for the second time in the match between Sunrisers Hyderabad and Royal Challengers Bangalore in the Indian Premier League season 2019. The match saw a partnership of 210 runs between Gill and Sudarshan, which is the fourth highest partnership for any wicket in IPL history.
Shubman Gill, who was almost silent so far in this season of IPL, was at his best in the match against Chennai Super Kings. With his century of 104 runs, Gill became the 9th player in IPL history to score a century as a captain. Earlier, Sachin Tendulkar, Virender Sehwag, Adam Gilchrist, Virat Kohli, David Warner, KL Rahul, Sanju Samson and Ruturaj Gaikwad have achieved this feat.
