So Let’s take a look at KKR vs GT 39th Match Highlights of IPL 2025.
Kolkata Knight Riders vs Gujarat Titans Match Highlights
Shubman Shine as Gujarat Titans Blaze to 198
Following their decision to be sent into bat by KKR skipper Ajinkya Rahane, the Gujarat Titans scored an intimidating 198 for 3 in. The innings was supported by an excellent knock by Shubman Gill, who scored a flashy 90 from 55 deliveries, studded with 10 fours and 3 sixes. He was ably complemented by Sai Sudharsan, who gave a rousing start with a 52-run quickfire. Jos Buttler completed the finish with a decent unbeaten 41, helping Gujarat breach the psychological 190-mark.
KKR’s bowlers were unable to hold back the run flow, with Vaibhav Arora and Harshit Rana being the lone wicket-takers each. Although there was an early punch, the bowling of the Knight Riders was tame, particularly during the death overs, where the Titans picked up speed with efficiency.
Rahane’s Lone Stand Not Enough as KKR Crumble
In response, KKR’s pursuit never quite gathered steam. Losing Rahmanullah Gurbaz in the first over established the trend for a faltering innings. Though Ajinkya Rahane attempted to calm the nerves with a steady 50, wickets continued to fall at predictable intervals. Sunil Narine and Venkatesh Iyer were unable to capitalize on their starts, and the middle order was left in tatters by Gujarat’s well-disciplined spin arsenal.
Rashid Khan (2/25) and Prasidh Krishna (2/25) were instrumental in putting pressure, and Washington Sundar and Sai Kishore contributed with timely breakthroughs. KKR finally ended at 159 for 8, far below the target. This victory puts the Gujarat Titans strongly in contention for the playoffs, demonstrating their batting strength and bowling restraint.
