IPL Restarts, GT Wins over DC by 10 wickets...
Gujarat Titans Crush Delhi
Capitals by 10 Wickets in a Historic Chase!
The 60th match of IPL 2025 between Delhi
Capitals (DC) and Gujarat Titans (GT) turned out to
be a one-sided thriller as GT dominated DC with a 10-wicket victory at
the Arun Jaitley Stadium in Delhi. The Titans chased down
a 200-run target without losing a single wicket, scripting
history in the IPL!
A Masterclass from Sai Sudharsan & Shubman Gill
Gujarat’s openers, Sai Sudharsan and Shubman
Gill, put on a record-breaking 205-run partnership, making it
the third-highest opening stand in IPL history. Sudharsan was
the star of the night, smashing an unbeaten 108 off 61 balls (12
fours, 4 sixes), while Gill played the perfect supporting role with a *93* off
53 balls* (3 fours, 7 sixes).
DC’s Strong Total Goes in Vain
Earlier, Delhi Capitals posted a competitive 199/3 in
20 overs, thanks to a brilliant century from KL Rahul (112 off 65
balls). He anchored the innings with crucial partnerships—90 runs with
Abishek Porel (30)* and 45 runs with skipper Axar Patel (25).
However, their efforts were overshadowed by GT’s ruthless chase.
GT’s Dominant Batting Display
- Powerplay Onslaught: GT
raced to 43/0 in the first three overs, setting the tone
for the chase.
- No Wickets Lost: This
was the first time in IPL history that a team
chased 200+ runs without losing a wicket.
- Gill’s Milestone: Shubman
Gill became the highest run-scorer in away matches this season
(417 runs).
- 1000th Six of IPL 2025: Gill
also hit the 1000th six of the tournament during his
explosive innings.
What This Win Means for Playoffs
With this victory, Gujarat Titans (18
points) officially qualified for the playoffs,
joining RCB and Punjab Kings. Meanwhile, Delhi Capitals’
playoff hopes took a hit, and they now face a must-win situation in
their remaining matches.
Post-Match Reactions
- Sai Sudharsan (Player of the Match): "I just wanted to play my natural game. The pitch was
good, and Shubman and I had a great understanding."

knew the wicket would get better, but chasing 200 without losing a wicket
is special."
