Highlights, IPL 2022 GT vs RR Final, Full Cricket Score: Debutants GT outplay RR to win title

01:15 (IST)

That brings us to the end of our coverage of the 15th season of the Indian Premier League, and boy what a ride it turned out to be over the course of two months and 74 games. For a change, top togs Mumbai Indians and Chennai Super Kings found themselves at the bottom of the table, with two relatively unfancied sides in Gujarat Titans and Rajasthan Royals locking horns in the final, and debutants Gujarat walking away with the trophy in the end in Hardik Pandya’s first major captaincy assignment. The title victory will surely have made Gujarat a force to be reckoned with in the league, as well as Pandya one to watch out for as far as Rohit Sharma’s successor as India captain’s concerned.

Hope you enjoyed our coverage of IPL 2022. We now shift our focus to India’s limited-overs assignment against South Africa on 9 June in New Delhi. For now, this is Amit signing off, wishing you all good night!

01:07 (IST)

Next up is the winners award for the Gujarat Titans team, and Ashish Nehra walks up to the stage to receive a limited-edition IPL 2022 watch on behalf of his team.

GT captain Hardik Pandya, meanwhile, receives the TATA IPL Champions 2022 cheque worth Rs 20 crore from BCCI president Sourav Ganguly and secretary Jay Shah.

Hardik Pandya: The kind of support the whole support staff has shown to the whole team has been fantastic. I and Ashu pa are similar, we like to focus on bowlers who can win you matches. Most of the time I’ve seen in T20 cricket, it’s a batter’s game but bowlers win you games. It was all about how we can get better from anywhere. What were the things we missed out on and how we can get better. Everyone chipped in, from the support staff to the logistics team. I count myself lucky for having won the IPL five times. This is going to be a special one because we spoke about creating a legacy.

01:02 (IST)

Next up, Rajasthan Royals captain Sanju Samson receives the Runners-up cheque from BCCI treasurer Arun Dhumal as well as the runners-up trophy from IPL chairman Brijesh Patel

Sanju Samson: This season was really special for us. The last two-three seasons we had been giving our fans a hard time but this time we were able to put smiles on their faces. One off day (today), but I’m proud of my team. Right from the auctions, we needed quality bowlers, and we did really well (on that front). I think the role was completely different (for me) this year especially with the way Jos went about his business. It was a good season for me. As we keep growing and keep getting better, we can improve a lot more. Congratulations to Gujarat Titans, I think they deserved to win tonight.

00:59 (IST)

Next up we have the match officials, led by Match Referee Javagal Srinath, getting their mementoes. This will be followed by the runners-up award to the Rajasthan Royals.

Kumar Sangakkara: I just think the way the teams really focussed, gelled together and played a lot of good cricket. I think we went through lots of ups and downs... We had major contributions from Jos, the two spinners, Hetmyer, McCoy... I could go on and on. The overall effort from everyone, it's been a great journey and a great franchise to be part of. (Advice to youngsters) First appreciate the journey and look back at the good things we have done. Also be realistic about the things we can do better in the next season. We can only look forward.

00:56 (IST)

Jos Buttler: Obviously I’ve exceeded all my expectations apart from today. Big congratulations to Hardik and his team, they deserved it thoroughly. My goals are to play my role for the team and to try and react on the day. I managed to take the confidence forward. In good teams, you have a lot of trust in everyone. We had a lot of trust in each other. (Advice to younger teammates) To be very grateful for today. Today’s been an amazing occasion. Fantastic tournament. Two years without crowds, to come here and play is a privilege.

After the world's largest jersey, another record has been achieved today

00:19 (IST)

Shades of VK in that celebration by Gill?

00:07 (IST)

All-round Pandya leads from the front!

What an evening for Hardik Pandya, the Gujarat Titans skipper leading from the front — first with a game-changing spell that choked the flow of runs in the middle overs followed by a 30-ball 34 that helped bring the side back on their feet after a shaky start. Surely nobody else comes close to the Player of the Match award this evening?
 

00:03 (IST)

Sound familiar?

00:01 (IST)

The brains behind the operation!

00:00 (IST)

What a start for Hardik Pandya the captain!

23:44 (IST)

After 18.2 overs,Gujarat Titans 133/3 ( Shubman Gill 45 , David Miller 32)

GT vs RR Live Score IPL 2022 Final Updates: SIX! Shubman Gill finishes off in style, clobbering the ball over the square leg fence off Obed McCoy, as Gujarat Titans outplay Rajasthan Royals with seven wickets and 11 deliveries to spare! What a dominant run this has been from the Titans this season, topping the table, securing direct qualification into the summit clash and now winning it with such ease!

23:43 (IST)

After 18 overs,Gujarat Titans 127/3 ( Shubman Gill 39 , David Miller 32)

GT vs RR Live Score IPL 2022 Final Updates: Tidy third over for Ashwin, with five coming off it, including a brace to Miller in the final delivery. Just four more needed for Gujarat Titans to complete a memorable title triumph.

23:36 (IST)

After 17 overs,Gujarat Titans 122/3 ( Shubman Gill 37 , David Miller 29)

GT vs RR Live Score IPL 2022 Final Updates: Big over for the Titans as 13 coming off it, including a couple of streaky boundaries to Miller, as the equation comes down to less than 10 with three overs left. Gill and Miller could very well finish things off with singles, though that certainly isn’t Miller’s style and he will look to end it with a bang.

23:30 (IST)

After 16 overs,Gujarat Titans 109/3 ( Shubman Gill 37 , David Miller 17)

GT vs RR Live Score IPL 2022 Final Updates: SIX! And now Miller decides to take on senior offie Ashwin, smashing the ball into the stands beyond midwicket in the third ball of the off-spinner’s second over. 12 off the over, with the umpire signalling timeout at the end of this over. Gujarat need just 22 more to win off 24, and it should be a cakewalk for them from here.

23:26 (IST)

After 15 overs,Gujarat Titans 97/3 ( Shubman Gill 33 , David Miller 9)

GT vs RR Live Score IPL 2022 Final Updates: McCoy returns with the season now coming down it’s last six overs. Eight off the West Indian’s third over, including a boundary to Miller in the fourth ball as the South African drives through the extra cover region. GT need 34 more to win off 30.

23:23 (IST)

After 14 overs,Gujarat Titans 89/3 ( Shubman Gill 31 , David Miller 3)

GT vs RR Live Score IPL 2022 Final Updates: Chahal signs off with figures of 1/20 after dismissing Pandya with a peach of a delivery in the second ball of his final over. David Miller walks out to bat and gets off the mark with a brace. GT still very much ahead at the moment, needing just 42 more to win off 36 with plenty of wickets in hand.

23:17 (IST)

GT vs RR Live Score IPL 2022 Final Updates: OUT! Ripper of a delivery from Yuzvendra Chahal, and the legspinner ensures he'll bag the Purple Cap at the end of the tournament! It's the perfect leg-spinner, one that grips and turns sharply after pitching between middle and leg, and finds Pandya's outside edge. Neat piece of fielding by Jaiswal at slip to complete the dismissal. That should give Gujarat a glimmer of hope! GT 86/3

Pandya c Jaiswal b Chahal 34(30)

23:13 (IST)

After 13 overs,Gujarat Titans 84/2 ( Shubman Gill 31 , Hardik Pandya (C) 32)

GT vs RR Live Score IPL 2022 Final Updates: No boundaries conceded by Boult in his final over of the evening, with the Kiwi pacer signing off with excellent figures of 1/14. though that won’t really help Rajasthan’s cause as they desperately need to break this stand and collect wickets at regular intervals thereafter if they are to keep their title hopes alive.

23:09 (IST)

After 12 overs,Gujarat Titans 77/2 ( Shubman Gill 29 , Hardik Pandya (C) 28)

GT vs RR Live Score IPL 2022 Final Updates: Ashwin’s finally introduced in the 12th over, and boy is he off to an expensive start, getting struck for a four and a six off successive deliveries to Pandya that brings up the fifty stand for the third wicket, and starting off with a 15-run over, one which will have made the Gujarat dugout a lot more confident. One can safely say the momentum has tilted back in Gujarat’s favour in this over, and it will certainly be very difficult stopping Pandya’s charge towards the target from here.

23:03 (IST)

After 11 overs,Gujarat Titans 62/2 ( Shubman Gill 26 , Hardik Pandya (C) 16)

GT vs RR Live Score IPL 2022 Final Updates: McCoy’s back. Gill pulls the ball towards cow corner in the first ball, coming back for a second after a fine piece of fielding by Hetmyer at the boundary. There’s little any of the fielders can do as Pandya firmly cuts a length ball outside off through the cover region to collect his second boundary. Pandya collects a single off the last ball to keep the strike. Partnership’s worth 39 at the end of this over at run-a-ball.

22:59 (IST)

After 10 overs,Gujarat Titans 54/2 ( Shubman Gill 23 , Hardik Pandya (C) 11)

GT vs RR Live Score IPL 2022 Final Updates: Six off Chahal’s third over of the evening. Gujarat need another 77 runs to win at the halfway stage with eight wickets in hand. Partnership between Pandya and Gill’s worth 31 off 33 so far, and will be starting to worry Rajasthan at the moment.

22:56 (IST)

After 9 overs,Gujarat Titans 48/2 ( Shubman Gill 19 , Hardik Pandya (C) 9)

GT vs RR Live Score IPL 2022 Final Updates: Prasidh returns to the attack. Pandya decides to attack in this over, going for a majestic lofted drive over mid off in the third delivery. Gill then collects a streaky four off an inside edge in the last ball of the over. Umpire signals timeout. Gujarat need 83 to win off 66.

22:52 (IST)

After 8 overs,Gujarat Titans 38/2 ( Shubman Gill 14 , Hardik Pandya (C) 4)

GT vs RR Live Score IPL 2022 Final Updates: Another close shave for Shubman Gill after he gets a thick top-edge towards extra cover, where Hetmyer fails to hold on to the catch after running in the opposite direction. Three off Chahal's second over. Gujarat going at less than five-an-over at the moment, and need a big over now to keep the asking rate under check.

22:47 (IST)

After 7 overs,Gujarat Titans 35/2 ( Shubman Gill 12 , Hardik Pandya (C) 3)

GT vs RR Live Score IPL 2022 Final Updates: Obed McCoy introduced on the other side of the powerplay, and he does his part in building pressure on the Titans by conceding just four singles in his first over. Gill, meanwhile, is batting on 12, and having been dropped on nought, will hope to make the most of the lifeline handed to him earlier today.

22:41 (IST)

After 6 overs,Gujarat Titans 31/2 ( Shubman Gill 10 , Hardik Pandya (C) 1)

GT vs RR Live Score IPL 2022 Final Updates: Spin introduced in the final over of the powerplay, with Yuvzendra Chahal replacing Prasidh Krishna. The leg-spinner, hoping to get the Purple Cap back from Wanindu Hasaranga, keeps things tight in the first five deliveries, conceding just two singles, before Gill produces a sweetly-timed sweep to end the powerplay with a boundary.

22:38 (IST)

After 5 overs,Gujarat Titans 25/2 ( Shubman Gill 5 , Hardik Pandya (C) 0)

GT vs RR Live Score IPL 2022 Final Updates: Boult is among the wickets after all, as Wade tamely chips the ball towards Parag standing at midwicket, resulting in the easiest of chances. Out walks GT skipper Hardik Pandya at No 4. Rajasthan, meanwhile, are starting to believe again. One more wicket, and it could be anybody’s game from here.

22:33 (IST)

GT vs RR Live Score IPL 2022 Final Updates: OUT! Tame end to Matthew Wade's innings, as the Aussie keeper-batter departs after tamely chipping the ball towards Riyan Parag standing at midwicket. GT 23/2

Wade c Parag b Boult 8(10)

22:29 (IST)

GT vs RR Live Score IPL 2022 Final Updates: Poor start for Krishna in his second over, conceding five wides at the start of the over after firing one down the leg side to Wade. Krishna follows it with three good deliveries, collecting a dot off each, before Matthew Wade pulls a short ball behind square, comfortably depositing it in the stands. Dot off each of the last two, with 11 coming off the over.

22:26 (IST)

After 3 overs,Gujarat Titans 16/1 ( Shubman Gill 4 , Matthew Wade 2)

GT vs RR Live Score IPL 2022 Final Updates: Superb second over from Trent Boult as he collects a maiden — the first of the IPL final. Looks like Rajasthan have a chance after all!

22:20 (IST)

After 2 overs,Gujarat Titans 11/1 ( Shubman Gill 4 , Matthew Wade 2)

GT vs RR Live Score IPL 2022 Final Updates: Prasidh Krishna steams in from the other end. Saha collects his first boundary with a firm pull in front of square in the second delivery. Krishna though, sends him back to the dugout two balls later with a peach of a delivery that angles in, beats the inside edge and hits the top of middle. Six runs and a wicket from the over.

22:16 (IST)

After 1 over,Gujarat Titans 5/0 ( Wriddhiman Saha (W) 1 , Shubman Gill 4)

GT vs RR Live Score IPL 2022 Final Updates: Boult nearly gets Rajasthan the early breakthrough that they were looking for, inducing an inside edge off Gill’s bat in the fourth delivery, only for Yuzi Chahal to make a hash of the opportunity at square leg. Gill rubs salt on the wound by collecting the first boundary of the innings two balls later.

22:12 (IST)

GT vs RR Live Score IPL 2022 Final Updates: Wriddhiman Saha walks out to open the GT innings alongside Shubman Gill, with Trent Boult bowling the first over. Rajasthan need a few early wickets in the powerplay if they are to defend 130. For Gujarat, a solid partnership should be more than half the battle won.

22:03 (IST)

Do take the poll and let us know what you think

22:00 (IST)

Can they?

21:59 (IST)

Advantage GT at the interval
 

21:57 (IST)

After 20 overs,Rajasthan Royals 130/9 ( Prasidh Krishna 0 , )

GT vs RR Live Score IPL 2022 Final Updates: Shami bowls the final over. Parag turns down a single in the first delivery, and dashes back for a second after working the ball towards deep backward square leg, with Matthew Wade’s throw from that region also fairly wide at the non-striker’s end. Parag slices the ball behind point for a boundary in the third, before pushing for another double — this time his partner McCoy falling well short of the non-striker’s end to get dismissed for 8. Dot off the fifth followed by a perfect inswinging yorker to Parag that uproots the off stump as Rajasthan Royals finish on 130/9 after opting to bat.

21:56 (IST)

GT vs RR Live Score IPL 2022 Final Updates: BOWLED! Shami uproots the off-stump with an inswinging yorker in the final delivery of the innings, as Parag misses completely while looking to smash the ball down the ground. A superb delivery from the leading seamer as he finishes off with a wicket to his name. RR 130/9

Parag b Shami 15(15)

21:54 (IST)

GT vs RR Live Score IPL 2022 Final Updates: OUT! McCoy's nowhere in the frame by the time Shami breaks the stumps at the non-striker's stumps. Parag drills the ball down the ground, the ball deflecting off Shami's foot. Parag pushes for a second run, but McCoy slips while dashing back for the second and is run out comfortably in the end. RR 130/8

McCoy run out (Tewatia/Shami) 8(5)

21:49 (IST)

After 19 overs,Rajasthan Royals 123/7 ( Riyan Parag 8 , Obed McCoy 8)

GT vs RR Live Score IPL 2022 Final Updates: No fireworks for the Royals in the penultimate over, bowled by Dayal, as the left-arm seamer concedes just three singles off his third over of the evening. Just one more over to go after this. Rajasthan need another 27 just to get to 150.

21:46 (IST)

After 18 overs,Rajasthan Royals 120/7 ( Riyan Parag 6 , Obed McCoy 7)

GT vs RR Live Score IPL 2022 Final Updates: Big over for the Royals, with 16 coming off it as Trent Boult and Obed McCoy collect a six each, though left-arm spinner Sai Kishore also collects his second wicket of the evening by dismissing the former. Left-handed batter McCoy can hit the ball quite cleanly, as was evident in his slog-sweep in the final delivery, and will hope to contribute some vital runs in the last two overs of the innings.

21:43 (IST)

GT vs RR Live Score IPL 2022 Final Updates: OUT! Boult had collected his first six just the previous delivery, but fails to get the distance this time around while attempting to go big over long off. Rahul Tewatia settles under the ball and collects it safely as Rajasthan lose their seventh wicket. Second wicket of the evening for Sai Kishore. RR 112/7

Boult c Tewatia b Sai Kishore 11(7)

21:40 (IST)

After 17 overs,Rajasthan Royals 104/6 ( Riyan Parag 5 , Trent Boult 3)

GT vs RR Live Score IPL 2022 Final Updates: Ferguson’s back too, and the focus will once again be back on the speed gun. Can he breach the 100mph barrier this evening. Tidy over from the Kiwi pacer with a single collected off each delivery of the innings. Rajasthan finally cross 100 — the only problem for them is that they have just three more overs left.

Past masters of Indian badminton: Meena Shah defied norm to clinch dozen national titles before knee injury cut career short

In the history of women’s badminton in India, there have been three outstanding players who have each had the distinction of bagging the national singles title seven times in a row. The first of these was Meena Shah, who made the national crown her own between 1959 and ’65; the second was Madhumita Goswami-Bisht, who won the title in an unbroken reel of seven from 1984 to ’90, and ended up with ten singles crowns; and the third was Aparna Popat, who made it nine in a row between 1997 and 2005. Stroke artist Ami Ghia-Shah, who reached an unbelievable 15 national singles finals among the 36 summit clashes she managed in a 19-year career, has also been anointed national singles queen on seven occasions, but these were not in consecutive years. Ami won four consecutive titles from 1973 to ’76, and then again in 1979, ’80 and ’83. There is one thing that Aparna, Madhumita and Ami had in common – they have all been slim and trim during their reign at the top. Meena Shah, on the other hand
