IPL 2022 Points table, Orange & Purple Cap: Unbeaten GT take 2nd spot; Shubman Gill enters top-5 in run-scoring list
Gujarat Titans beat Punjab Kings by 6 wickets in Mumbai on Friday to remain the only unbeaten team in IPL 2022 so far.
Rahul Tewatia's final over heroics helped Gujarat Titans successfully chase down the target of 190 to beat Punjab Kings by 6 wickets at the Brabourne Stadium in Mumbai. Shubman Gill's elegant 59-ball 96 helped the Titans kick off the chase in promising fashion before two brilliant overs in the death brought the Kings alive in the match. However, a brain fade moment from Odean Smith in the final over, coupled with Tewatia's two consecutive stunning sixes over long-on saw the Titans remain unbeaten in the 2022 Indian Premier League (IPL).
