IPL 2022, GT vs LSG Highlights: Gujarat Titans beat Lucknow Super Giants by 5 wickets

Varun Aaron to Deepak Hooda, Short again, on off. Deepak Hooda again looks to pull but this time, the ball goes off the top edge to third man for a single. 

Varun Aaron to Deepak Hooda, SIX! First maximum of this innings! Aaron bangs it short, on middle. Deepak Hooda picks the bones out of that one. He just pulls it over fine leg and the ball has more than enough legs to clear the fence. He's adding much-needed impetus to Lucknow's innings. 

Varun Aaron (2-0-19-1) comes back to bowl.

Varun Aaron to Deepak Hooda, FOUR! Deepak Hooda is playing a good knock here. Short of a length, outside off. Deepak Hooda makes room, hopes and cuts it uppishly just wide of the backward point fielder for a boundary. 

Rashid Khan to Ayush Badoni, Fraction short, outside off. Ayush Badoni works it to wide of deep mid-wicket for a brace.

Review! Hardik Pandya has opted for a review for LBW! Was there any bat involved in it? The replays roll in and it shows that Ayush Badoni has got some glove on it.

Rashid Khan to Ayush Badoni, A googly, turning in, outside off. Ayush Badoni dabs it to first slip on the bounce.

Rashid Khan to Deepak Hooda, On middle, Deepak Hooda nudges it to mid-wicket. It's a vacant area so Rashid Khan sprints towards it and does very well to keep it down to only a single. 

Rashid Khan to Ayush Badoni, NOT OUT! A loud shout from Rashid Khan but nothing from the umpire. Full and on leg, Ayush Badoni gets low and sweeps it to short fine leg for a single. Rashid Khan thinks that has hit the pads and Hardik Pandya opts for the review. UltraEdge shows it hit the gloves of the batsman. The original decision stands. Gujarat lose a review here. 

Rashid Khan to Ayush Badoni, Floats it up, quicker, on off. Ayush Badoni works it to backward point off the outside edge as he was trying to defend. 

Rashid Khan to Deepak Hooda, Full and outside off, Deepak Hooda reaches out for it and sweeps it to deep mid-wicket for a single. 

Hardik Pandya to Deepak Hooda, Short of a length, on off. Deepak Hooda rides the bounce and carves it hard to deep point. There is a man stationed there so will only get a single. A good over for Lucknow. 11 runs off it! 

Hardik Pandya to Ayush Badoni, Back of a length, on middle. Ayush Badoni drops it with soft hands to mid-wicket for one.

Hardik Pandya to Deepak Hooda, He is timing the ball well! Angles it in, on middle and leg. Deepak Hooda wrists it to long on for a run.

Hardik Pandya to Deepak Hooda, FOUR! Deepak Hooda looks settled here and is changing gears now! Fuller, outside off. Deepak Hooda steps out and drives it over extra cover for another boundary of the over. 

Strategic Time-Out! Gujarat all over Lucknow right now courtesy of Mohammed Shami who just spit fire. The onus is on Deepak Hooda and Ayush Badoni now to take Lucknow to safer shores while Gujarat will eye a couple of wickets more to stay completely on the front foot. Mind you, they haven't introduced Rashid Khan yet! Ahh, speak of the devil! Here comes Rashid Khan.

Hardik Pandya to Deepak Hooda, Just short! Length ball, on off. Deepak Hooda makes room for himself and punches it uppishly to short extra cover. The fielder there carries the ball on the bounce. 

Hardik Pandya to Deepak Hooda, FOUR! Nice shot! Back of a length, outside off. Deepak Hooda stays on the back foot and smashes it powerfully to long on for a boundary. A much-needed one for them!
