Shubman Gill and Wriddhiman Saha opened the batting for them. However, Gill was dismissed cheaply for 7 runs after he nicked one which was going down leg-side against Tim Southee. Hardik Pandya (56) walked in to bat at number three and scored another fluent half-century to propel his team to reach 156/9 in their quota of 20 overs. 

KKR opened the batting with Sam Billings and Sunil Narine both of whom got out for just 4 and 5 runs giving Gujarat the start that they needed while defending a small total. KKR kept losing wickets at regular intervals till the time Andre Russell walked out to bat. Russell smashed the Gujarat bowlers all around the park and made sure his side was in the hunt. However, in the final over of the game, Alzarri Joseph dismissed Russell for 48 which helped Gujarat Titans win the game.
