Gujarat Titans’ captain Shubman Gill did not score well versus Delhi Capitals during the IPL 2024 match on Wednesday (April 17). He got out cheaply after facing six deliveries, scoring just eight runs. Shubman Gill’s dismissal meant Titans lost their first wicket for 11 in the second over.
The dismissal occurred after Ishant Sharma delivered a fuller-length ball outside off and Shubman Gill tried for a driver over the covers. The right-hander, however, did not use his feet and ended up gifting Prithvi Shaw a straightforward catch at covers.

On the other side, GT made three adjustments. Sandeep Warrier made his debut, and Wriddhiman Saha and David Miller made comebacks.
The Titans were 30/4 after six overs, with Rahul Tewatia and Abhinav Manohar at the crease. David Miller (two off six deliveries) was the final batsman out, caught by Rishabh Pant off Ishant.
