After a challenging 2019–2020, Sai Sudharsan made the most of the TNPL platform, scoring 594 runs over two seasons with a strike rate of 138.7 and an average of over 60. He assisted his team, the Lyca Kovai Kings, in capturing the championship in 2022.
With a rollicking 96 off 47, the 21-year-old Chennai native almost sent the Chennai Super Kings' winning train careening off course, but alas, Jadeja's heroics in the last over prevented that.
Last night, Sai Sudharshan took full advantage of the chance to shine and make a statement while batting with his dependable captain. He did so in front of his idol Thala, who had the unenviable task of watching the southpaw launch half a dozen sixes from behind the stumps, in front of a packed Narendra Modi Stadium and for the 30 million simultaneous viewers on JioCinema.
Despite the fact that his innings was unsuccessful, he made a strong statement with the bat by posting the highest individual score by an uncapped player in an IPL finals, which also assisted his franchise in recording the highest team score in an IPL finals. Someday we will see the Sai Sudharsan century as well.
IPL 2023, DC vs. GT: Captain Hardik Pandya praised 21-year-old batsman Sai Sudharsan for his dedication and said he will do great things in the future.
In the wake of the reigning champion Gujarat Titans' victory over the Delhi Capitals in Game 7 of the IPL 2023 in Delhi, Hardik Pandya praised 21-year-old Sai Sudharsan,who was honoured as Gujarat Titans' Player of the Match for the first time ever. On Tuesday, April 4, Gujarat won a 163-run target with 11 deliveries remaining thanks in large part to Sai Sudharsan's 62 not out off 46 balls, which allowed him to remain unbroken.
Gujarat Titans defeated Chennai Super Kings in the IPL 203 opening, and this was their second straight victory in the current campaign.
After finishing his post-game presentation duties, Hardik Pandya stayed behind to support Sai Sudharsan as he approached the podium to accept the Player of the Match award. Captain Hardik, who has been leading from the front ever since he was named the franchise's captain, made a lovely gesture in the Sai Sudharsan match.
He's been getting good at-bats. The fruits of his labour are evident. After Gujarat Titans' 6-wicket victory, Hardik Pandya predicted that the player will do something big in league cricket in two years, hopefully for India.
Anrich Nortje, a pacer for the Delhi Capitals, was bowling hard as Sai Sudharsan came to bat at No. 3. When Gujarat lost skipper Hardik and dropped to 54 for 3 in their pursuit of 163, the South African pacer sent back Wriddhiman Saha and Shubman Gill with blistering pace.
However, Sudharsan showed perseverance and maturity by hanging in there throughout his 53-run partnership with fellow Tamil Nadu batter VIjay Shankar.
After Shankar left, Sudharshan was content to take second place to David Miller, who entered and quickly grabbed control of the match. Gujarat finished the chase in the 19th over with Miller still undefeated on 31 from 16 balls.
In Nortje's penultimate over as the South African paceman, Sudharsan showed off his big-hitting prowess by hitting him for two massive sixes. After a successful Vijay Hazare Trophy season in which the left-hander scored 610 runs, including three hundreds in eight games, it was not unexpected to see Sudharsan step up. He has also been among the most reliable batters in the Tamil Nadu Premier League.
