🏆 GT Climb to the Top After Nail-Biting Win
Gujarat Titans pulled off a dramatic 3-wicket win against Mumbai Indians in a rain-hit IPL 2025 match at Wankhede Stadium, Mumbai. With this victory, GT moved to the top of the points table, tied at 16 points with Royal Challengers Bengaluru but ahead on Net Run Rate (0.793).
🌧️ Rain Adds Twists to Crucial Clash
The match saw multiple rain breaks, which led to a revised DLS target of 147 in 19 overs for GT. Despite a mid-innings collapse, they managed to hold their nerve and sealed the win off the final ball.
Rahul Tewatia’s calm boundary and Gerald Coetzee’s six in the final over turned the game. Deepak Chahar’s over was filled with errors, including a no-ball and loose deliveries, helping GT complete the chase in dramatic fashion.
