NEW DELHI: In an IPL season where already 8 totals of more than 250 were scored, Gujarat Titans took a contrasting approach with the lowest powerplay totals in the IPL 2024.
GT registered a lowest powerplay total against Royal Challengers Bengaluru in Bengaluru where they managed to score only 23 runs for the loss of 3 wickets. It was GT's lowest-ever powerplay total in IPL history as well.
Following closely, Punjab Kings struggled against Sunrisers Hyderabad in Mullanpur. They scored 27 runs and lost 3 wickets in the Powerplay, which hindered their momentum and made it challenging for them to build a substantial innings.
