Gujarat Titans beat Rajasthan Royals by seven wickets to reach IPL final

Shubman Gill walked in and didn't look back. His 104 off 53 balls — 15 fours and three sixes — steered Gujarat Titans past Rajasthan Royals' 214 for six in IPL Qualifier 2 at Mohali. Sai Sudharsan played the perfect foil with 58 off 32, and together they took GT to 219 for three in 18.4 overs.

Rajasthan had looked dangerous. Vaibhav Sooryavanshi smashed 96 off 47 (eight fours, seven sixes), while Ravindra Jadeja's unbeaten 45 off 35 and Donovan Ferreira's late burst — 38 off 11 — gave them something to defend. It wasn't quite enough. Mohammed Siraj, Kagiso Rabada, Prasidh Krishna, and Jason Holder each picked two wickets for GT, keeping the chase in control.

Gill reaches the final on the back of stellar form. He's already made noise about wanting back into India's T20I setup, and performances like this won't hurt his case.
