IPL 2024, GT vs CSK Live Score, Gujarat Titans vs Chennai Super Kings: The innings ends with Shahrukh Khan being run out off the last ball. Miller finishes unbeaten on 16 off 11. So not too much value added after that record-equalling opening stand. 

IPL 2024, GT vs CSK Live Score, Gujarat Titans vs Chennai Super Kings: Shardul Thakur finishes with figures of 0/25. Masterful work from him and CSK have managed to pull things back slightly in the last two overs. David Miller on seven off six, Shahrukh Khan on one off two.

IPL 2024, GT vs CSK Live Score, Gujarat Titans vs Chennai Super Kings: The GT captain sends the last ball of that over into the hands of deep midwicket. An extraordinary over from Deshpande. Just four runs in it, no boundaries and the wickets of two centurions.

GT vs CSK IPL Live SCore: GT 209/0 in 17 overs

IPL 2024, GT vs CSK Live Score, Gujarat Titans vs Chennai Super Kings: A captain's knock if there ever was one. That is also the 100th IPL hundred and it also brings up the 200-run opening partnership. Simarjeet Singh bowling the 17th, Sudharsan takes a single first ball. The second is a full toss and Gill guides it through square leg for a four. He takes off his helmet and roars. Then he blasts out a few choice words in Hindi/Punjabi into the air. That is a heck of a knock from Gill, he reaches his century in 50 balls.

GT vs CSK IPL Live Score: GT 200/0 in 16.2 overs

IPL 2024, GT vs CSK Live Score, Gujarat Titans vs Chennai Super Kings: Thakur prevents both batters from celebrating a century in his over.

IPL 2024, GT vs CSK Live Score, Gujarat Titans vs Chennai Super Kings: And to add to CSK's frustration, the second of those sixes came from a dropped catch. Mitchell bowls the 14th over, the first is a dot and then Gill pulls the second over long leg after shuffling across. Then he goes big towards long-off second ball, Deshpande is there but he can't hold on to it, the ball is parried over for a second consecutive six in the over. Michell then nails a yorker that is dug out back to him, he motions to throw and then gives Gill a stare. Gill responds by smashign the fifth ball over extra cover for another six. The over ends with a single. Gill now on 85 off 40, Sudharsan on 92 off 44.

IPL 2024, GT vs CSK Live Score, Gujarat Titans vs Chennai Super Kings: They are very attractive batters and they are putting on a show here. Daryl Mitchell bowls the 10th over and Gill meets the first ball with the most perfect straight drive that would make Sachin Tendulkar smile. He narrowly misses the wickets at the non-striker's end and the ball races to the boundary. Three singles after which Sudharsan punches the fifth ball down the ground for another four. The batters run two off the last ball. Gill is on 46 off 24, Sudharsan on 59 off 36.

IPL 2024, GT vs CSK Live Score, Gujarat Titans vs Chennai Super Kings: Strike rate has been a big issue for Sudharsan this season but not today.

IPL 2024, GT vs CSK Live Score, Gujarat Titans vs Chennai Super Kings: Ravindra Jadeja bowling the first over after powerplay. Gill hits the first ball between long on and deep midwicket for a four. Then four singles, the fifth bal should've been two for Sudharsan but Santner makes a complete meal of the throw.

Some garbage cricket there between the two Kiwis makes it six runs off that ball for GT and Sudharsan. The over ends with a single. Sudharsan on 36 off 26, Gill on 35 off 16.

GT vs CSK IPL Live Score: GT 72/0 in 7 overs

IPL 2024, GT vs CSK Live Score, Gujarat Titans vs Chennai Super Kings: Well 58 runs in a powerplay is good in normal parlance but the verdict is out today considering the kind of scores we are seeing this season.

GT vs CSK IPL Live Score: GT 58/0 in 6 overs

IPL 2024, GT vs CSK Live Score, Gujarat Titans vs Chennai Super Kings: Excellent over there from Shardul Thakur and this has significantly dented GT's progress in the powerplay. Three singles, one off the third ball for Sudharsan, then off fifth for Gill and another off the sixth. Sudharsan on 23 off 19, Gill on 22 off 11. GT yet to cross 50, something most teams have done by the fifth over of the powerplay this season.

GT vs CSK IPL Live Score: GT 46/0 in 5 overs

IPL 2024, GT vs CSK Live Score, Gujarat Titans vs Chennai Super Kings: Shardul Thakur takes the ball for the third over with Sudharsan on strike. The first two balls are dots and then Sudharsan brings out a truly glorious lofted cover-drive. It goes all the way into the stands for his first six of the day. He gets off strike fifth ball and then Gill flicks the last one through midwicket for a four. A couple of very good looking batters out there and if they can put up a good stand here, we are in for a treat.

GT vs CSK IPL Live Score: GT 32/0 in 3 overs

IPL 2024, GT vs CSK Live Score, Gujarat Titans vs Chennai Super Kings: Tushar Deshpande bowls the second and starts off with a wide to Gill. Gill gets off strike off the 2nd legal delivery. Two dots to Sudharsan and then a single. Then Deshpande gets a thick edge from Gill as the batter tries to drive the last ball away from his body. No backward point and so that races away to the boundary. Gill on 16 off seven, Sudharsan on four off five.

GT vs CSK IPL Live Score: GT 21/0 in 2 overs

IPL 2024, GT vs CSK Live Score, Gujarat Titans vs Chennai Super Kings: Sudharsan runs three off the first two balls, then Gill hits the first ball he faces in the match for four with a lovely square drive.

A single to end the over and Gill is on 11 off four, Sudharsan on three off two.

IPL 2024, GT vs CSK Live Score, Gujarat Titans vs Chennai Super Kings: CSK are starting off with Mitchell Santner. Shubman Gill opens with Sai Sudharsan for GT. Now that is interesting.

IPL 2024, GT vs CSK Live Score, Gujarat Titans vs Chennai Super Kings: T20Is was the only format in which Shubman Gill was yet to establish himself in international cricket properly. It was almost taken for granted, though, that he would take the opening spot along with Rohit Sharma in the T20 World Cup before the start of the IPL, considering the astonishing form he hit in ODIs and Tests. Alas, it was not to be for the Gujarat Titans captain and it will most probably be Yashasvi Jaiswal opening for India in the T20 World Cup with the captain. Gill is in the reserves though. 

IPL 2024, GT vs CSK Live Score, Gujarat Titans vs Chennai Super Kings: It is Chris Morris on the pitch report today. He says that it's got a good covering of grass and it feels solid under the hand. I am looking at a high-scoring game. Two teams are going to come and push that 200-run mark. I can't see the pitch changing. There might be a little bit of swing early on. You got two bowlers on either side that can swing. Good outfield, I am looking at a high-scoring game.

IPL 2024, GT vs CSK Live Score, Gujarat Titans vs Chennai Super Kings: While GT might only be playing for pride, it is safe to say that there is a little more at stake for CSK. If they win, they go level with SRH on points, but have a better net-run-rate. That would help them move to third place and keep a firm control over their fate. If they lose, their path to the playoffs become trickier.

IPL 2024, GT vs CSK Live Score, Gujarat Titans vs Chennai Super Kings: Gujarat Titans have lost four of their last five matches. Of these, they have lost the last three on the trot and they are bottom of the table. At the other end are the Kolkata Knight Riders who have won four of their last five matches and have won the last three on the trot.

IPL 2024, GT vs CSK Live Score, Gujarat Titans vs Chennai Super Kings: Scoring in the powerplay has been a struggle this season for GT. 

IPL 2024, GT vs CSK Live Score, Gujarat Titans vs Chennai Super Kings: It was all the way back on March 26 and was a repeat of the 2023 final. It also gave an indication of things to come. Ruturaj Gaikwad, Rachin Ravindra and Shivam Dube's brilliance helped CSK set up a score of 206/6, which at the time, all those days ago, seemed like a mammoth score. That notion was amplified by the fact that GT were restricted to 143/8 and lost by 63 runs. In the games since, 206 has often made to look like a below par total.

IPL 2024, GT vs CSK Live Score, Gujarat Titans vs Chennai Super Kings: Thirteen of the last 21 IPL games there have been won by the team batting second and that puts a fair bit of pressure on Ruturaj Gaikwad to change his luck with the toss. The average first-innings total in this period is 188.

IPL 2024, GT vs CSK Live Score, Gujarat Titans vs Chennai Super Kings: GT's Wriddhiman Saha has a strike rate of 118.3 this season - lowest for a top-order batter (positions 1-3) who has faced minimum 100 balls. CSK's Ajinkya Rahane is second lowest in this list with a strike rate of 123.1.

IPL 2024, GT vs CSK Live Score, Gujarat Titans vs Chennai Super Kings: In the first six matches of this season, Shubman Gill scored 255 runs at an average of 51 and a strike rate of 151.8.

IPL 2024, GT vs CSK Live Score, Gujarat Titans vs Chennai Super Kings: IPL 2024, GT vs CSK Live Score, Gujarat Titans vs Chennai Super Kings: Gujarat's top seven batters have collectively got the lowest batting average of 24.6, the lowest run rate of 8, the lowest boundary percentage (58 per cent) in the league, says our stats man Nikhil Narine. They also score a boundary every 5.8 balls which is the lowest frequency among the teams in the league as well.

IPL 2024, GT vs CSK Live Score, Gujarat Titans vs Chennai Super Kings: They won the title in their very first season and finished runners-up in the second. In both seasons, they finished top of the table with 20 points, winning 10 and losing just four in each season. But this is sport, and reality checks are waiting in every corner. For GT, letting go of their captain and all-rounder extraordinaire Hardik Pandya proved to be a decision they couldn't recover from. They are sitting bottom of the table after playing 11 games with eight points, winning just four and losing seven. If they lose today, they will equal the number of losses they suffered in their first two seasons put together in this year alone

IPL 2024, GT vs CSK Live Score, Gujarat Titans vs Chennai Super Kings: You may only be outside noise for many but lets face it, public opinion does matter in cricket, or else no one would care about broadcast quality and stands in a stadium. Make yourselves heard. 

IPL 2024, GT vs CSK Live Score, Gujarat Titans vs Chennai Super Kings: If there is one rule that players, especially bowlers, have roundly criticised, it is the Impact Player rule. Now the BCCI has made its opinion clear about this. "Impact Player is like a test case. We have implemented it slowly. The biggest advantage of it is that two Indian players are getting a chance [in each game], which is the most important," Shah told reporters at the BCCI headquarters in Mumbai on Thursday. "We will consult with the players, franchises, broadcasters [and take a call]. This is not permanent [but] I am not saying that it will go. [We'll see] if it's making the game more competitive or not. Even then, if a player feels that this is not right, then we will talk to them. But no one has told us anything yet, so it will be decided after the World Cup."

IPL 2024, GT vs CSK Live Score, Gujarat Titans vs Chennai Super Kings: Shubman Gill has not had the greatest of seasons with the bat, or as captain. Today he could face Shardul Thakur, who has a good record against him. Gill has been dismissed just twice by his compatriot but has also scored just 36 runs in 31 balls against Thakur.

IPL 2024, GT vs CSK Live Score, Gujarat Titans vs Chennai Super Kings: Among the biggest reasons for CSK's success this season has been their fast bowlers, particularly Matheesha Pathirana, Mustafizur Rahman and Deepak Chahar. Well these three are exactly the players who are missing for the rest of the season. Pathirana and Chahar are both out due to injuries. Mustafizur Rahman has returned to Bangladesh to play a series against Zimbabwe in preparation for the T20 World Cup.
