BCCI Vice-President Criticizes Sunrisers Hyderabad's Batting After Loss to Gujarat Titans

Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) suffered an 82-run defeat to Gujarat Titans (GT) at the Narendra Modi Stadium, with SRH all out for 86 while chasing 169. BCCI Vice-President Rajeev Shukla criticized SRH's aggressive batting approach on a challenging pitch, questioning their decision to attempt sixes early instead of building the innings cautiously. GT posted 168/5, led by Sai Sudharsan's 61 and Washington Sundar's half-century. SRH's top order collapsed under pressure from bowlers Mohammed Siraj and Kagiso Rabada.
