GT vs SRH: Watch - Alzarri Joseph’s Direct Hit Ends Washington Sundar’s Knock

Gujarat Titans (GT) Alzarri Joseph threw down the stumps at the bowling end to send back Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) Washington Sundar in their recent IPL 2022 encounter which was played at the Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai on April 27, 2022.

GT came into the match with a chance to go to the top of the points table with a win and started off well as Hardik Pandya won the toss and snapped SRH skipper Kane Williamson’s 7-match streak of winning tosses. Gujarat Titans went in unchanged from their last match, while SRH welcomed Washington Sundar back into the side in place of Jagadeesha Suchith.

Abhishek Sharma gave a terrific start to the Sunrisers Hyderabad innings with a knock of 65 in 42 balls with 3 sixes and 6 fours to his name. Kane Williamson fell for 5, while Rahul Tripathi made 16 and was looking good before he was trapped LBW by Mohammad Shami.

Aiden Markram also scored a half-century finishing on 56 in 40 balls and much was anticipated from Nicholas Pooran and Washington Sundar, but they both managed just 3 runs each.

In the end, Shashank Singh (25* in 6 balls with 3 sixes and one four) and Marco Jansen smashed Lockie Ferguson for 4 sixes in the last over to take SRH to 195/6 in 20 overs. Mohammad Shami with 3/39 was the best pick of the GT bowlers.
