Hardik Pandya and Matthew Wade built a 57 run stand and gave some momentum to the chase before both of them were cleaned up quickly by spinners. Gujarat Titans needed 67 off the last five overs and it was then that Tewatia and Miller teed off and got the team to needing just 21 off 15 balls before their stand was broken. 

In the end, with 11 needed off the last 6, Abhinav Sadaeangani and Tewatia did it in style.
