GT Posts 211 vs DC in IPL 2026: Gill's 70 Leads Charge After Toss Loss

Gujarat Titans captains Shubman Gill led from the front with a classy 70, as GT set Delhi Capitals a daunting 211-run target in IPL 2026's 14th match. Jos Buttler (52) and Washington Sundar (55) complemented with fiery half-centuries, turning a shaky start into a power-packed total on Wednesday. DC skipper Axar Patel called correctly at the toss and chose to field, but GT openers Sai Sudharsan and Gill laid a platform before Sudharsan edged one for 12 off 19 runs. Buttler joined Gill for a 60-run blitz in 32 balls, his 27-ball 52 laced with aggressive strokeplay including five maximums. Post Buttler, Gill and Sundar took charge, adding 104 in 60 balls. Gill's knock ended on 70 (45 balls, 5x6, 4x4), while Sundar (32 balls, 6x4, 2x6) ensured momentum. Mukesh Kumar claimed two scalps for DC, with Ngidi and Kuldeep picking one each. GT rung one change with Gill's return sidelining Kushagra; DC unchanged after back-to-back six-wicket wins over LSG and MI. GT aims to bounce back from PBKS defeat.
