Sensational Shubman Gill extended his sensational run with a third century of the season as Gujarat Titans crushed Mumbai Indians by 62 runs to storm into their second consecutive IPL final on Friday. Gill`s 60-ball 129 (7x4s, 10x6s) fired Gujarat Titans to a huge 233/3 and in reply, Mumbai Indians, struck by a string of injuries, went down fighting in Qualifier 2 with Suryakumar Yadav (61) and Tilak Varma (43) providing the resistance.
Hardik Pandya and Co. did their homework well on Thursday following a humiliating 15-run defeat over Chennai Super Kings (CSK) in Qualifier 1, patterns observed in the 12-year history of the playoffs suggest the four-time champions led by MS Dhoni has history on its side. Here`s why. The Men in Yellow will take heart from history because the winner of Qualifier 1 has beaten the same team in the final seven times out of nine. Now whether Titans are able to mend the history, only time will tell. Meanwhile, Mumbai are the only team to have won the IPL title after beating the team it lost to in Qualifier 1.
