Ahmedabad, May 3 -- A sensational middle-overs spell from Jason Holder combined with late strikes from Rashid Khan ensured Gujarat Titans kept Punjab Kings to a modest 163/9 in 20 overs in the 46th match of the Indian Premier League 2026 at the Narendra Modi Stadium here on Sunday.

Opting to bowl first after winning the toss, Gujarat struck early through Mohammed Siraj and Kagiso Rabada before Holder ripped through the middle order, finishing with a match-defining 4/24.

Punjab, despite a blazing half-century from Suryansh Shedge and a counterpunch from Marcus Stoinis, failed to capitalise on a strong late platform as wickets kept tumbling at crucial stages.
