Shubman Gill revealed he twisted his ankle during his explosive 84 off 44 balls but continued batting to guide Gujarat Titans to a dominant 77-run win over Rajasthan Royals in the IPL. Gill called it GT’s “clean win” as Rashid Khan starred with 4/33 and the Royals were bowled out for 152 chasing 230.

Jaipur: Gujarat Titans captain Shubman Gill on Saturday said he twisted his ankle during his sublime knock of 84 off 44 balls but was able to continue his innings to help his side beat Rajasthan Royals by 77 runs in their Indian Premier League match here.

Gill's knock, studded with nine fours and three sixes, was a masterclass in timing and strokeplay as he mixed elegance with aggression despite struggling briefly with discomfort in his left foot before reaching his fourth IPL fifty this season.

He shared a commanding 118-run opening stand with Sudharsan (55 off 36 balls) to take GT to 229 for 4 after being asked to bat first.

Chasing 230, RR were bowled out for 152 in 16.3 overs with veteran leg spinner Rashid Khan returning with impressive figures of 4/33 while Jason Holder took 3/12.
