04/30 13:16 CDT Gujarat notches a 4-wicket win over Bengaluru in the Indian Premier League Gujarat notches a 4-wicket win over Bengaluru in the Indian Premier League AHMEDABAD, India (AP) --- Gujarat Titans avenged their loss last week to Royal Challengers Bengaluru with a four-wicket win over the defending champions in the Indian Premier League on Thursday. Gujarat's four-man pace attack bowled out Bengaluru for 155 despite Virat Kohli's (28) blazing start when he smashed Kagiso Rabada for five consecutive boundaries in the second over of the innings. The home team romped to 158-6 in 15.5 overs as captain Shubman Gill (43) matched Kohli's aggression when he struck Josh Hazlewood (0-56) for 24 runs in the Australian fast bowler's first over. Bengaluru stayed at No. 2 with 12 points. Gujarat is at No. 5 with 10 points. Kohli struck five fours and a six in his first 10 balls before Rabada (1-44) came back strongly as Kohli spliced a catch to mid-wicket off a sharp short pitch delivery as Gill persisted with his premium bowler in the power play. Bengaluru's middle order crumbled after Kohli's blitz and even impact player Venkatesh Iyer couldn't countercharge in the death overs. Devdutt Padikkal top-scored with 40 off 24 balls before he played onto Rashid Khan (2-19) in the 14th over. Fast bowler Arshad Khan picked up 3-22 while Jason Holder (2-29) held onto three brilliant catches that included a breathtaking diving catch off captain Rajat Patidar while running from deep backward square and grabbing the ball with both hands. ___ AP cricket: https://apnews.com/hub/cricket
