In Tuesday’s Indian Premier League encounter, Punjab Kings defeated Gujarat Titans by 11 runs thanks to a brilliant performance by Shreyas Iyer, who scored an undefeated 97.

Even though Sai Sudharsan scored 74, Shubman Gill struck a fast 33, and Jos Buttler scored 54, the Gujarat Titans, who were chasing 244 to win, battled valiantly to reach 232 for 5.

Despite Sherfane Rutherford’s rapid knock of 46, his effort was insufficient.

Shreyas Iyer missed his first IPL century earlier in the first innings, but Punjab Kings managed to score 243 for 5 thanks to his 97 not out off 42 balls (9 sixes, 5 fours) and Shashank Singh’s 44 not out off 16 balls (6 fours, 2 sixes).

With a 3/40, Sai Kishore was the Gujarat Titans’ best bowler, although the home team’s bowlers usually had trouble controlling the run flow.

Young Priyansh Arya reached the top with 47 off 23 balls after hitting seven fours and two sixes.
