Rajasthan Royals handed Gujarat Titans a crushing 8-wicket defeat in their Indian Premier League match on Monday in Jaipur. RR’s chase of 209 was led by a spectacular knock from rising star Vaibhav Suryavanshi, who played a blistering innings to propel his side to victory with 25 balls to spare.

Earlier, GT, who were asked to bat, posted a formidable total of 209/4 in 20 overs, thanks to standout performances from their top-order batters Jos Buttler and skipper Shubman Gill. Gill top-scored with a brilliant 84 runs from 50 balls, including five boundaries and four sixes. Buttler provided valuable support with a quickfire 50 off 26 balls, helping GT set a challenging target. Not to forget, Sai Sudharsan also made beautiful efforts, cracking 39 off 30.
