GT vs SRH: Watch - Rashid Khan And Rahul Tewatia Score 22 From Last Over By Marco Jansen To Win GT The Match By 5 Wickets

Gujarat Titans (GT) batters Rashid Khan and Rahul Tewatia did the unthinkable and took their team to a special victory in their IPL 2022 clash against Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) as they scored 22 runs in the last over off Marco Jansen to clinch a famous win.

Gujarat Titans’ chase was first shouldered by Wriddhiman Saha who made 68 in 38 balls with 11 fours and 1 six. However, then Kane Williamson unleashed Umran Malik on the GT batters and he finished with figures of 5/25, his maiden five-wicket haul in the Indian Premier League, and took all the five GT wickets to fall.

Earlier, batting first after losing the toss, Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) put on 195/6 in 20 overs. The main scorers for them were Abhishek Sharma’s 65 in 42 balls with 3 sixes and 6 fours and Aiden Markram contributing with 56 in 40 balls. Then Shashank Singh made 25* in 6 balls, including hitting Lockie Ferguson for three consecutive sixes in the 20^th over.

Rahul Tewatia And Rashid Khan Take Gujarat Titans Past The Finish Line

47 runs were needed off the last 18 balls when Rahul Tewatia and Rashid Khan warmed up. But good bowling from Bhuvneshwar Kumar and T Natarajan meant that Marco Jansen had to defend 22 runs in the final over.

However, Rahul Tewatia hit Jansen for a six off the first ball, and then Rashid Khan finished the job by hitting him for three sixes as well. The first was hit right back over Jansen’s head, the second was hit over the point off a wide yorker and the match was won when Rashid hit a short ball from Jansen over Natarajan’s desperate leap on the boundary at fine leg.

With this win, GT went to the top of the IPL 2022 points table, while SRH remain at no.3.
