Wriddhiman Saha and Shubman Gill gave the Titans a solid start in their previous game and the same was expected from the duo again.However, the veteran wicketkeeper had a troubled stay at the crease as he was dismissed for 5 (11). Matthew Wade came back into the IPL team at No.3 and did have a couple of boundaries to his name. But he once again failed to make his start count.Gill at the other end kept the scoreboard ticking and ensured one end was intact. However, skipper Hardik Pandya too departed for an uncharacteristic knock of 11(13).Gill needed some support at the other end and got that in the form of David Miller. Both batters consolidated the GT innings and looked set to tee off. However, the LSG bowlers bowled well and the duo couldn't quite up the ante.Rahul Tewatia scored three crucial boundaries in the last over to give the Titans some sort of momentum. 145 still looks like a modest target but GT have a strong bowling attack. The chase could end up being tricky for LSG on a batting track that clearly isn't one of the best.Get the latest IPL 2022 live score updates here every day!
