In the IPL match held in Ahmedabad, Gujarat Titans (GT) showcased a strategic bowling approach, with Kagiso Rabada leading the charge against Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR). Rabada, who had struggled earlier in the season, returned to form with a stellar performance, taking 3 wickets for 29 runs. His efforts, alongside Mohammed Siraj's, during the powerplay helped restrict KKR to 37 for 3. Despite a late surge from KKR, they managed only 180 runs, thanks to GT's disciplined bowling. Rabada noted the importance of adapting to pitch conditions, highlighting the moisture and uneven bounce that played a role in their strategy. Although GT won the match, concerns linger regarding their scoring speed, as they took 19.4 overs to chase down the target. Rabada emphasized that winning is the primary goal, with net run-rate being a secondary concern, especially with several matches still left in the tournament.
