IPL 2026 DC VS GT Highlights: Gujarat Titans (GT) registered their maiden win of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2026 as they defeated Delhi Capitals (DC) by 1 run in Match 14 at the Arun Jaitley Stadium in New Delhi on Wednesday (April 8). Delhi Capitals won the toss and opted to bowl first.

Gujarat Titans posted a commanding total on the back of a power-packed batting display led by Jos Buttler, Shubman Gill, and Washington Sundar. Buttler set the tone early with an explosive 52 off 27, dominating the powerplay with aggressive strokeplay. After his dismissal, Gill anchored the innings with a composed 70, accelerating at the right time, while Sundar provided strong support and finished with a crucial 55. The middle overs saw consistent strike rotation along with timely boundaries, including a massive 23-run over that shifted momentum firmly in Titans’ favour. Despite a couple of late wickets, contributions from Glenn Phillips in the death overs ensured a strong finish, helping GT put up a formidable total of 210/4 after 20 overs.

Delhi Capitals’ chase of 211 was driven by a brilliant 92 off 52 from Rahul (11 fours, 4 sixes), who anchored the innings and kept them on track for most of the game. DC stayed in the hunt despite a brief slowdown. However, Mohammed Siraj’s 17th over proved decisive, removing Rahul and producing a crucial run-out, finishing with 2 wickets in the over. Despite losing Miller briefly to injury and a slowdown against Rashid Khan, DC regained momentum through a late assault led by Miller, especially a 23-run 19th over that brought the equation down to 13 off the final over. In the end, DC fell just short, finishing at 209/8, losing by just 1 run after a dramatic final over from Prasidh Krishna that included a wicket and a last-ball run-out.

Jos Buttler shifts gears and puts Axar Patel under immediate pressure in his first over. He starts in style, going inside-out over cover for a boundary, and follows it up with a massive six down the ground, showcasing his aggressive intent against spin. Axar tries to pull things back by varying his pace and length, but Buttler continues to find gaps and rotate strike. Gill chips in with a single as well, keeping the flow intact. Despite Axar managing to avoid further damage after the early blows, it’s Buttler who clearly dominates the over, ensuring Gujarat Titans maintain their momentum.

IPL 2026, DC vs GT LIVE Score: Wicket and drama in an eventful over

It turns into an eventful over from Mukesh Kumar as he not only provides the crucial breakthrough but also creates a moment of concern behind the stumps. The over begins with a wide down the leg side before Mukesh strikes immediately after, dismissing Sai Sudharsan who chops one back onto his stumps while attempting a cut.

The new man, Jos Buttler, takes a couple of deliveries to settle in, cautiously defending and getting a feel of the pitch. But he soon makes his intent clear, smashing a floaty delivery straight down the ground for a towering six. There’s a brief pause in play as the wicketkeeper takes a blow to his finger off a wayward delivery down leg, requiring physio attention. Despite the early wicket, Titans manage to end the over with a bit of momentum thanks to Buttler’s aggressive stroke.

IPL 2026, DC vs GT LIVE Score: Sai Sudharsan goes back to the hut as Mukesh Kumar strikes early

Mukesh Kumar provides the early breakthrough for his side, removing the in-form Sai Sudharsan right at the start of the over. After beginning with a wayward delivery down the leg side that is called a wide, Mukesh adjusts smartly by shortening his length and angling the ball across the left-hander. Sudharsan, looking to cut, fails to get into position and ends up chopping the ball onto his stumps. The timber is disturbed, and the zing bails light up, ending a brisk knock of 12 off just 7 balls. A timely wicket for the bowling side just as Gujarat Titans were looking to build momentum.

Sai Sudharsan continues to look in sublime touch as Gujarat Titans build on their steady start. Lungi Ngidi errs with an overpitched delivery early in the over, and Sudharsan makes him pay with a beautifully timed drive through cover for four. Ngidi pulls his length back after that, tightening his lines, but the batters keep the scoreboard moving with smart strike rotation. Gill looks composed, defending and finding gaps when possible, while Sudharsan adds another single to retain strike. It’s a controlled over from Ngidi overall, but Titans still manage to keep the momentum ticking.

IPL 2026, DC vs GT LIVE Score: Gujarat Titans start on a high note

Gujarat Titans get off to a confident start in the opening over against Mukesh Kumar, making early use of anything loose on offer. Sai Sudharsan begins with a classy boundary, neatly clipping one off his pads through mid-wicket. Mukesh tries to adjust his lines but continues to offer width, allowing Sudharsan and Shubman Gill to rotate strike comfortably with singles. Gill then produces the shot of the over, a crisp back-foot drive past backward point for four, showcasing excellent timing. While there’s a hint of moisture in the pitch as predicted, aiding the pacers slightly, Titans manage to navigate the first over without trouble and keep the scoreboard ticking nicely.

IPL 2026, DC vs GT LIVE Score: Shubman Gill during the toss

“It's much better (on his neck issue), it's something similar (to what happened in the Test against South Africa). We were going to bat first anyway, if the weather stays this way, there will be no dew in the second innings. It's all about assessing the conditions, we have good opening partnerships (with Sai Sudharsan) and hopefully, we will put runs on the board. It's all about clicking in one game, we lost the last game by a small margin. Hopefully, we will sort out our batting. KK (Kumar Kushagra) sits out for me, rest is unchanged.”

“We will bowl first. We've chased well in the last two matches and this is a fresh wicket. It's been raining; there could be some moisture. Bowl first, have a look at the wicket, restrict them and chase down the score. We look at the match-ups, making it as difficult as possible for the batters and choose the best possible bowlers. Same XI for us.”
