Despite Subman Gill's unbeaten 94 Wriddhiman Saha's explosive 81 hogged the limelight on the day Gujarat Titans score a mammoth 227 for two against Lucknow Super Giants in the ongoing Indian Premier League at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad on Sunday. 

Saha and Gill went hammer and tongs from the word go to add 142 runs for the first wicket in only 12.1 overs, setting the franchise record for highest partnership for any wicket, as LSG had no respite despite deploying eight bowlers into the attack. It was also the second-best stand for any team for any wicket in this IPL, and for Gujarat Titans, the total was their highest-ever in IPL since their debut last season.

Saha struck an overall four sixes and 10 fours to make 81 runs from 43 balls. While Gill opened up tad late, it was Saha who kept firing from one end for GT.

India and Royal Challengers Bangalore batter Virat Kohli was mesmerized to have watched Saha's knock. He took to Instagram stories to post the picture of Saha from the game and wrote "what a player!" with clapping emojis.
