During the IPL 2025 match against Delhi Capitals, Gujarat Titans' opening batsman Sai Sudharsan played an unbeaten knock of 108 runs off 61 deliveries. His knock saw him smash 12 boundaries and four maximums.
Speaking about his knock in the post-match press conference, the left-hander said, "It feels great to make the team win. I missed out quite a few times at doing so this season, and in the break, I was thinking about it, and it paid off today. After six overs, the 7-10 overs they bowled really well, the momentum went down, we were cool and calm enough to take the game deep. We got a couple of big overs from 12-1,3, which helped. In previous games, I took chances and got out, but was aware enough to take the right matchups. I started to believe a bit more, to be honest, my mindset point of view belief has gotten better".
The 23-year-old also received the 'Player of the Match' award for his exceptional contribution to the team's victory by 10 wickets.

Further, the left-hander opened up on how he and skipper Shubman Gill keep pointing out each other's mistakes during the match.
"I don't think much has changed as a batter, but mentally, I have improved. When I look at the spinners, maybe I can get better at striking them. After the 15th over, I have a lot of things to work on; I'm keeping a check on that. (about Gill) There's a lot of understanding between us. Running between the wickets is one thing which we talk about, and when I make a mistake, he points out and similarly from my side as well," he added.
Recapping the match, the GT skipper Shubman Gill won the toss and elected to field.
After DC lost Faf Du Plessis early, a 90-run stand between KL Rahul and Abishek Porel (30 in 19 balls, with a four and three sixes) and cameos from skipper Axar Patel (25 in 16 balls, with two fours and a six) and Tristan Stubbs (21* in 10 balls, with two sixes) helped DC reach 199/3. KL had a solid 45-run stand for the third wicket and a 48-run stand for the fourth wicket with Axar and Stubbs, respectively.
Sai Kishore, Prasidh Krishna, and Arshad Khan each got a wicket.
However, DC's bowling struggled against ultra-consistent Shubman Gill (93* in 53 balls, with three fours and seven sixes) and Sai Sudharsan (108* in just 61 balls, with 12 fours and four sixes). They put on a dominant 205 run partnership, helping GT win with an over left.
