Gujarat Titans finish with Mohit

Gujarat Titans 231/3 beat Chennai Super Kings 196/8

At 119 for 3 in 12 overs, CSK was in with a chance until Mohit Sharma stepped in. Mohit struck with his second ball, a well-disguised knuckle-ball that tricked Mitchell into taking a catch at long-off for 63 off 34 balls. In his next over, he dug a pace delivery into the surface and had Moeen holing out for 56 off 36 balls.

Mohit also had Shivam Dube caught behind for 21 off 13 balls to finish with 3 for 31 - the best figures of the day.
