Gujarat Titans Dominate CSK with 89-Run Victory in IPL 2026

The IPL 2026 season witnessed another dramatic exit as Chennai Super Kings were eliminated following a comprehensive 89-run loss to Gujarat Titans on Thursday. Batting first after losing the toss, GT built a massive 229 for 4, led by an opening stand of 125 runs between Shubman Gill and Sai Sudharsan. Gill scored 64 off 37 balls while Sudharsan contributed 84 off 53 deliveries. Jos Buttler’s unbeaten 57 ensured a challenging total. CSK’s chase never took off after losing Sanju Samson on the first ball. Captain Ruturaj Gaikwad managed only 16 as the side crumbled to 140 in 13.4 overs. Shivam Dube’s fighting 47 offered brief resistance, but GT’s bowlers, led by Siraj, Rabada, and Rashid Khan, shared the wickets equally to seal a dominant win.
