Shubman Gill and Sai Sudharsan, the two GT openers, have now completed 22 half-century partnerships in the IPL as an opening pair, breaking the former record set by Virat Kohli and his RCB teammates.
The Gujarat Titans have not had the best of batting lineups in the history of the IPL, yet they are one of the most productive batting units and have amassed several batting records. These batting records have splurged over the past three seasons under Gill's captaincy.
Gujarat is taking on rivals Rajasthan Royals in the Qualifier 2 at the New Chandigarh Stadium, where the RR team crushed their opponents in the Eliminator. Having batted first, RR has played its part, and the GT batters have a considerable amount of work to be done.

The Gujarat Titans have often been criticized for being way too dependent on their top three for the majority of their run scoring. The top three batters have contributed to nearly 70% of the runs scored by the Titans.
However, the remarkable consistency by their top three is enough to make any team envious. Sudharsan has completed nearly 700 runs this season, while Shubman Gill is also nearing the landmark while batting against the Royals.
They together put on a stunning fifty-run partnership and handed their team a good start. This was their 22nd fifty-plus partnership in the IPL, breaking the former record between RCB great Virat Kohli, AB de Villiers, and Chris Gayle.
