IPL 2023 Points Table: Updated standings after Gujarat Titans vs Sunrisers Hyderabad game

The Gujarat Titans (GT) cemented the top spot in the IPL 2023 points table with a 34-run win against the SunRisers Hyderabad (SRH) at the Narendra Modi Stadium on Monday, May 15. Shubman Gill's century and four-wicket hauls from Mohit Sharma and Mohammed Shami helped GT record their ninth win of the season.

The SunRisers Hyderabad skipper Aiden Markram won the toss and decided to bowl first in a do-or-die game. The Hyderabad-based franchise dismissed Wriddhiman Saha for a duck, but Gill and Sai Sudharsan added 147 runs for the second wicket to turn the game in GT's favor.

SRH broke the partnership by picking up Sudharsan's wicket in the 15th over. It seemed like GT would cross the 200-run mark. However, Bhuvneshwar Kumar's five-wicket haul helped Hyderabad make a comeback and restrict GT to 188/9 in 20 overs.

Chasing 189 for a victory, the SunRisers Hyderabad slumped to 59/7 after nine overs. Heinrich Klaasen tried to fight back with a half-century, but he did not receive enough support from the other batters. In the end, SRH scored 154/9 in 20 overs.
