GT vs CSK, IPL 2026: Gujarat Titans romped to a huge 89-run victory over a hapless Chennai Super Kings (CSK) on Thursday at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad.

With a massive victory, they have also sealed a Top 2 finish, meaning the Titans will get two chances at reaching the final, which is also slated to be played in Ahmedabad. Meanwhile, it is the third consecutive season that the Yellow Army have failed to secure a Top 4 finish, thereby also joining the Mumbai Indians and the Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) to be eliminated from the playoffs race.

Titans' openers B Sai Sudharsan and Shubman Gill set the tone for their massive total of 229/4 in 20 overs. A 125-run opening partnership ended after Gill perished for 64. But Sai Sudharsan and Jos Buttler kept the runs coming as the latter's unbeaten 57 powered the home side to a strong finish eventually.

In response, the Yellow Army had a horror start to their innings, losing Sanju Samson in the first ball of the innings. Ruturaj Gaikwad played some stunning shots before Mohammed Siraj sent him and Urvil Patel packing in the same over. The likes of Kartik Sharma (19) and Shivam Dube (47) played cameos but the Super Kings could get nowhere near the Titans' total as the innings lasted only 13.4 overs. While Sai Sudharsan scored a peerless 84 and clinched the Orange Cap, Mohammed Siraj earned the Player of the Match award for his haul of 4-0-28-3.
