Gujarat Titans vs Punjab Kings, 5th Match, Indian Premier League 2025 - Live Cricket Score, Commentary

Siraj to Shashank Singh, FOUR, PBKS end on 243. What a poor last over. 23 off the last over. Siraj digs it in short outside off with the field up, Shashank Singh ramps it over short third man and it's a fitting way to end the innings

Siraj to Shashank Singh, FOUR, Shreyas Iyer will be stranded if there's no extras. Shashank Singh with a little shuffle across, full on leg-stump, flicked away wide of deep backward square-leg and beats Sai Kishore to his right, bounces in front of him and that makes it difficult

Siraj to Shashank Singh, FOUR, boundaries flowing. Poor delivery, slower and short and wide outside off, Shashank Singh cuts hard and well wide of sweeper cover, to his right

Siraj to Shashank Singh, FOUR, still Shreyas Iyer not on strike. But Shashank Singh is doing it for PBKS. Very full outside off, Shashank has used his hands to dirrect the drive wide of cover, superbly got under that, Shreyas pats Shashank and has a chat with him

Siraj to Shashank Singh, FOUR, dug in short with third man in. Poor bowling. Shashank Singh ramps it easily over short third man

Rabada to Shreyas Iyer, FOUR, Shreyas Iyer is not letting up at all. A half-volley on leg-stump, flicked wristily and beats deep square-leg to his left, four more

Rashid Khan to Shashank Singh, SIX, 20 off the over. It's in the slot outside off, full, Shashank Singh gets forward and lofts cleanly straight down the ground and it just clears the cushions

Rashid Khan to Shashank Singh, FOUR, short and wide outside off, width for Shashank Singh, who reaches for it and cuts it hard and wide of extra-cover, into the gap for four

Rashid Khan to Shashank Singh, SIX, what power by Shashank Singh. He rocks back and muscles the pull over long-on, was a good length delivery and he shortened the length further by going right back, top shot this

Prasidh to Shreyas Iyer, SIX, another six and the PBKS dugout are up and clapping. Full outside off, a bit of a slice on this loft from Shreyas Iyer, fades away like a golf shot, long-off is in business but it just clears him, Shreyas Iyer dealing only in sixes here

Prasidh to Shreyas Iyer, SIX, Prasidh is not learning at all. Digs it in short outside off, Shreyas Iyer pulls and there is more height than elevation, Rabada at deep backward square-leg takes it well but as he catches, his right leg steps on the cushion, he was right on the edge of the boundary and did not manage to hold his balance, could have taken it, gone out and come back in to catch it again after lobbing it, but did not do so. Was he not aware of how close he was to the cushions?

Prasidh to Shreyas Iyer, FOUR, width and now Shreyas Iyer shows everyone that he can play on the off-side too. Short of a length outside off, slashed up and over backward point and nearly all the way too, one bounce over the ropes

Prasidh to Shreyas Iyer, SIX, he wanted to play this shot off the last ball. Similar short of length delivery outside off, Shreyas Iyer stands tall and pulls off the front foot, over wide long-on and it flies away

Sai Kishore to Stoinis, out Caught by Arshad Khan!! So much power straight down the ground and he falls to the reverse-sweep. A soft dismissal and Sai Kishore just walks away head down to his left, no celebrations at all. It's bowled from wide of the crease, tossed up full well outside off, Stoinis reverse-sweeps straight to the fielder at short third man. Can't believe he has picked out the fielder. A big wicket as Stoinis was looking dangerous and in the mood tonight. It's the timeout as well. Stoinis c Arshad Khan b Sai Kishore 20(15) [4s-1 6s-2]

Sai Kishore to Stoinis, SIX, again the power of Stoinis. Gets forward and takes it on a length, it's slower and Stoinis has smashed the loft well over long-on

Siraj to Shreyas Iyer, SIX, 10 rows back at fine-leg. Nothing short ball this, just near the thigh of Shreyas Iyer who swivels and gets inside the line of it, pulls and the white ball flies away, he has certainly improved against the short ball recently but this one did not have much going for it

Siraj to Stoinis, 1 run, low full-toss on the pads, flicked to deep mid-wicket for one

Siraj to Stoinis, wide, easy review by Shreyas Iyer. It's well over the head of Stoinis in a standing position, he was crouching a tad but still it was well over the head as Siraj digs it in, Stoinis looks at the square-leg umpire and asks him for the wide, does not get it, so Shreyas Iyer signals for the review

Siraj to Stoinis, SIX, muscled over deep mid-wicket. It's not short, but Stoinis picks the length so quickly, it's a length delivery and Stoinis has pummelled the pull flat over deep mid-wicket

Rashid Khan to Shreyas Iyer, SIX, consecutive sixes. Shreyas Iyer is in some nick. It's short on middle, he goes on the back foot and pulls it flat and well over deep mid-wicket, what a blow that was

Rashid Khan to Shreyas Iyer, SIX, 50 for Shreyas Iyer on his debut as PBKS captain. Picks the googly outside off, it's fairly full too, Iyer gets forward and swipes it high and over long-on, clean strike

Sai Kishore to Stoinis, FOUR, 87.9 kph, turning away a little, Stoinis sits down and reverse laps it over short third man. There was a slip in place but Stoinis was never worried about that. Has the ball stopped turning? Dew on?

Sai Kishore to Shreyas Iyer, SIX, tossed up delivery, not much turn, Shreyas Iyer lofts it over long-on. The fielder in the deep was interested but the ball went over despite the leap

Sai Kishore to Shreyas Iyer, SIX, 87 kph, outside off, Shreyas Iyer backs away and drills it over deep long-off. What a shot! Sai has been superb. But Shreyas Iyer showing his class and picking on him. That was hit so sweetly

Sai Kishore to Maxwell, out Lbw!! Goes for the reverse first ball and misses. That went straight through and was heading to the sticks. Good call not to review it. That was a flatter one, at the sticks and Maxwell decided to play the reverse but failed to wood it. The appeal was a convincing one and the umpirr raised his finger without a doubt. Sai Kishore is on a hat-trick. GT in a spot of bother as it a No Show from the Big Show. Maxwell lbw b Sai Kishore 0(1)

Sai Kishore to Azmatullah, out Caught by Arshad Khan!! Arshad has another one. Tossed up ball, angled in, not much turn. Azmatullah wanted to heave it away but played it sans any timing. The man from deep mid didn't have to move much and grabbed an easy catch. Second grab for Arshad tonight. Azmatullah was sent to take care of the spinners but he has fallen prey to a big shot against Sai. Excellent from Sai as he kept the batter guessing. Big wicket for the GT side. BAzmatullah c Arshad Khan b Sai Kishore 16(15) [4s-2 6s-1]

Prasidh to Azmatullah, FOUR, 142 kph, outside off, back of a length delivery, Azmatullah punches it over mid-off. That was timed superbly by Azmatullah as he hit that on top of the bounce

Prasidh to Azmatullah, FOUR, 143.3 kph, back of a length delivery, outside off, Azmatullah punches it wide of the man at mid-off. 100 up for the Punjab unit

Prasidh to Shreyas Iyer, FOUR, short, wide, slapped past the man at point for a four. Cracking shot to welcome Prasidh as he erred in his length and line to be put away easily

Rashid Khan to Azmatullah, SIX, no respect! Fuller ball, flighted outside off, Azmatullah gets to the pitch of the ball and launches it down the ground for a sixer. Massive hit to get things started

Rashid Khan to Priyansh Arya, out Caught by Sai Sudharsan!! He KHAN and he has. GT needed a breakthrough. Rashid has delivered. Was a tossed up delivery, not much turn, not much bounce either. That was short and the batter got carried away. Priyansh Arya was early into the tap pull kind of a shot and got a massive top-edge. The ball lobbed up and the man at cover took an easy catch. Second wicket down for Punjab. The ferocious Arya has to go back. Misses a fifty on debut. It was a soft dismissal. Priyansh Arya c Sai Sudharsan b Rashid Khan 47(23) [4s-7 6s-2]

Rashid Khan to Priyansh Arya, 1 run, fifty for the duo! Was on the pads, turns in, Priyansh Arya clips the ball down to long-on. Arya has been the prime contributor in the partnership

Rashid Khan to Priyansh Arya, FOUR, the outfield is lightning. On the pads, down leg, Priyansh Arya looked to sweep and got a fine edge for the ball to run away wide of the man at short fine

Rabada to Shreyas Iyer, FOUR, gets the room well outside off and manages to place it wide of the man at short third man. Just used the pace on the ball and guided it away into the gap. Punjab off to a flier. The newbie Arya has stung GT and how...

Rabada to Priyansh Arya, FOUR, 147.8 kph, Priyansh Arya nails the drive on the up and beats the man at cover with elan. That was superb from Priyansh Arya as he is showing his range on the off-side now

Rabada to Shreyas Iyer, leg byes, 1 run, was a length delivery, angled in, Shreyas Iyer wanted to whip it away. The ball hit him on the pads, it was going down but Rabada went up and the skipper took the review. Poor call it was. Was easily going down

Arshad Khan to Priyansh Arya, FOUR, straight down the ground for a four. Was pitched up at 134.8 kph, the batter presented the full face of the bat and nailed it down the ground for a four

Arshad Khan to Priyansh Arya, SIX, that was in the slot, outside off, the batter throws his bat at it and the ball flies over deep backward for a sixer. This guy is timing them so well

Arshad Khan to Priyansh Arya, FOUR, 133.8 kph, outside off, fuller again, Priyansh Arya drives on the up and gets it between cover and cover point for a four. That was sweetly timed

Arshad Khan to Priyansh Arya, FOUR, the ball goes off the edge and fine for a four. The ball was outside off and the batter would take it. But a slip there would have gobbled it up

Rabada to Shreyas Iyer, SIX, 143.7 kph, angled in, Shreyas Iyer whipped it over deep square. Was fuller on the pads and Shreyas Iyer was never going to hold back. He hit that huge and over the fence. The skipper is off to a flier

Rabada to Shreyas Iyer, FOUR, Iyer and intent are synonymous. Fuller ball, angled in, Shreyas Iyer presents the full face of the bat and punches it over the man at mid-on. Lovely shot indeed by Shreyas Iyer to get off the mark

Rabada to Prabhsimran, out Caught by Arshad Khan!! Arshad takes it now. Short ball, devoid of room, Prabhsimran looks to back away and slap it but ends up slicing it. The ball flew down to third man and Arshad takes a simple catch this time. There is decent carry and the ball flew easily to the fielder. Prabhsimran is gone after an iffy start. First one down for Punjab. Rabada has struck. Prabhsimran c Arshad Khan b Rabada 5(8) [4s-1]

Siraj to Priyansh Arya, FOUR, and now overcompensates by bowling it well wide outside off and Priyansh Arya now plays that fine down to third man for a four. That was the shorter part of the ground

Siraj to Priyansh Arya, SIX, this is poor from Siraj! That was fuller length, 139.4 kph, angled on to the pads. Priyansh Arya seems to be favouring the on-side and Siraj has fed him there. Priyansh Arya lofted it off the pads and that has gone all the way for a four. Spoils a good over

Rabada to Prabhsimran, FOUR, low full toss, angled in, Prabhsimran takes it on the full and on-drives. The man at mid-on - Arshad - put in the dive but was a clumsy one. The quick outfield beat him easily

Rabada to Priyansh Arya, 1 run, dropped! Two men converged on it. Rashid was one of them. That was a length delivery, outside off, Priyansh Arya tried to drive it down the ground and got it off the lower part of the bat. Arshad from mid-off went for it but didn't even get hands to it. Rashid was also trying to get close to that but in the end the ball fell away from both. Rashid left it late for the other man and that created the confusion. The calling from either of them was not tha great

Siraj to Priyansh Arya, leg byes, FOUR, angled down on to the pads, Priyansh Arya looks to nudge it and the ball runs away off the pads for a four. Poor from Siraj

Siraj to Priyansh Arya, FOUR, 138.9 kph, angled in, fuller on the pads, Priyansh Arya heaves it down to deep square for a four. That was put away with elan and without any inhibitions by the southpaw
