Gujarat Titans skipper Shubman Gill was pleased that his side had booked their place in the Indian Premier League playoffs with a 10-wicket win over Delhi on Sunday but said it was important not to ease up in the final two regular-season games.
Chasing 200 in Delhi, openers Sai Sudharsan 108 not out and Gill 93 not out powered the 2022 champions to victory in 19 overs for the highest successful chase without the loss of a wicket in IPL history.
Gujarat became the third team to qualify for the next round after Royal Challengers Bengaluru and Punjab Kings. The top four teams at the end of the regular season make the playoffs.
Its a great feeling to secure qualification, but we still have two key games ahead and its important to carry momentum into the playoffs, said Gill.
As a captain, I try to think like a batter while Im out there. Last year taught me a lot, especially how to manage the game in the backend.
