Gujarat notches a 4-wicket win over Bengaluru in the Indian Premier League

Gujarat Titans avenged their loss last week to Royal Challengers Bengaluru with a four-wicket win over the defending champions in the Indian Premier League on Thursday. Gujarat's four-man pace attack bowled out Bengaluru for 155 despite Virat Kohli’s (28) blazing start when he smashed Kagiso Rabada for five consecutive boundaries in the second over of the innings. The home team romped to 158-6 in 15.5 overs as captain Shubman Gill (43) matched Kohli’s aggression when he struck Josh Hazlewood (0-56) for 24 runs in the Australian fast bowler’s first over.

In a thrilling rematch that had fans on the edge of their seats, Gujarat Titans stormed back to defeat Royal Challengers Bengaluru by four wickets in Thursday's Indian Premier League clash—avenging their loss from just last week.

The Titans' pace attack was the story of the first innings, with their four-man bowling unit dismantling Bengaluru for just 155 runs. Despite a blistering start from Virat Kohli, who smashed Kagiso Rabada for five consecutive boundaries in the second over, Gujarat's bowlers regrouped brilliantly to restrict the defending champions.

Chasing 156 for victory, Gujarat's captain Shubman Gill led from the front with a commanding 43 runs. The young skipper matched Kohli's earlier aggression, taking Australian fast bowler Josh Hazlewood to the cleaners with a stunning 24-run assault in his very first over—a display of pure power that set the tone for the chase.

The home team reached their target with remarkable ease, finishing at 158-6 in just 15.5 overs. This victory not only avenged their previous defeat but also showcased the depth and resilience of a Gujarat side that continues to prove why they're one of the most exciting teams in the tournament.
