The dashing batter Shubman Gill smashed a magnificent ton and asserted his dominance over the opposition. Shubman Gill scored 104 runs in 52 balls with 5 fours and 8 sixes
Vijay Shankar too played a handy knock of 53 runs in 34 balls and struck 7 fours and 2 sixes. Vijay Shankar & Shubman Gill stitched an invaluable partnership of 123 runs in 71 balls. There was some drama in the last over but Shubman Gill took GT over the finish line by smashing a six on the bowling of Wayne Parnell in the last over.

Mohammed Siraj & Harshal Patel were the picks of the bowlers who took 3 wickets between them and were quite economical. Rest all the bowlers were taken to the cleaners. Perhaps, Faf made a mistake by not giving an over to Glenn Maxwell who has the knack of breaking partnerships.

Virat Kohli single-handedly took RCB’s total to 197-5. Noor Ahmad was the pick of the bowlers who took 2 scalps and gave away 39 runs in his 2 overs on a belter of a track.

.@CameronGreen_ & @ShubmanGill batted well for @mipaltan.
Amazing innings by @imVkohli too to score back-to-back 100’s. They all had their methods & were in the class of their own.

The unstoppable prince overpowers the inimitable King and his army in their den. Gujarat and their immense self belief in chasing totals down, continues. RCB’s wait for the trophy continues. MI through to the playoffs. They finished bottom last year. #Gill #Kohli #RCBvGT #IPL2023

Parnell is such a bowler who can’t even defend 50 runs in an over. He is such disgrace to cricket. This guy is no show all the way in his entire career. @WayneParnell if you have any shame, quit cricket.#bengalururain #RCBvGT
