GT skipper Shubman Gill
Gujarat Titans captain Shubman Gill was happy with the way his team fought back to win a thriller against Mumbai Indians, but refused to believe that they have secured qualification to the Playoffs following the chaotic rain-hit nail-biter at the Wankhede Stadium.
After restricting MI to a paltry 155-8, GT were cruising towards victory at 107-2 in 14 overs when rain interrupted the match first. On resumption, the five-time champions came roaring back with Jasprit Bumrah castling Gill and claiming the wicket of Shahrukh Khan. GT lost four wickets for 26 runs and were struggling at 132-6 when another rain interruption occurred.

The match resumed 30 minutes past the scheduled close time with GT needing 15 in one over to overhaul a re-adjusted target. MI missed a run-out opportunity off the last ball as GT won by three wickets via DLS method.
Gill said he would not like to believe that they have qualified for the Playoffs, but would rather want his players to give their best in the remaining matches.
“Thoughts like this can creep in, but we want to play each game as it comes. We do not want to play for one [first], two [second], or three [third] positions, but about giving our best in every game we play,” said Gill.
