Praful Hinge and Sakib Hussain hold GT to 168/5 — Srh Vs Gt

Praful Hinge and Sakib Hussain took two wickets each as srh vs gt turned in Ahmedabad on Tuesday, with Sunrisers Hyderabad limiting Gujarat Titans to 168/5 after being asked to bowl first. Gujarat’s 34/2 in the powerplay was their lowest of the season, and SRH’s opening spell stood as their best powerplay bowling effort of IPL 2026 so far.

Hinge Breaks Gujarat Open

Hinge removed Shubman Gill for 5 and later sent Jos Buttler back for 7 off 11 balls. Those early wickets left Gujarat short of the platform they wanted, and the Titans reached only 34/2 through the powerplay.

Pat Cummins added another strike in the 10th over when he dismissed Nishant Sindhu. That kept the pressure on Gujarat before Sakib Hussain took over later in the innings.

Sakib Hussain Finishes The Spell

Sakib dismissed Sai Sudharsan for 61, ending the innings’ most productive resistance. Washington Sundar still forced some late scoring, bringing up his half-century and hitting 18 runs from the 19th over before falling to Sakib in the final over.

Gujarat finished on 168/5, a total built around Sudharsan’s 61 and Sundar’s late push rather than a full top-order launch. For Sunrisers Hyderabad, the five-wicket return from Hinge, Hussain and Cummins left them with a modest chase after the visitors controlled the new ball and closed the innings without letting Gujarat surge past 168.
