Rajasthan Royals vs Gujarat Titans, 47th Match - Live Cricket Score, Commentary

The official broadcaster now showing tweets from the cricketing world who are going bonkers on Suryavanshi. From Aaron Finch to Mohammed Shami, everyone raving about tonight's knock. A real confidence-boosting win this for RR while GT just suffer their third loss in 9 games. How badly did they miss Gill's captaincy out there? He was watching all the action from the dugout after he suffered a little back spasm. Still GT are comfortably placed to make the playoffs. It's time to end things here. We will have more IPL action tomorrow. Do join us then. For now it's a good night and remember to sleep tight and snore happily. See you soon.

Vaibhav Suryavanshi | Player of the Match (translated from Hindi): It is a very good feeling. It's my first hundred in the IPL and it's my third innings. The result has shown here after the practice before the tournament. I just see the ball and play. Batting with Jaiswal is good, he tells me what to do and he infuses positive things. It has been a dream to get a 100 in the IPL and today it materialised. There is no fear. I don't think much, I just focus on playing.

Riyan Parag: It was incredible. We spent 2 months with him and seen what we can do. And to do it against world-class bowlers against GT, words can't express. We changed it from the last game, we were thinking how can we finish this a little earlier, bat with real intent. We practised a lot and we implemented it today, it came off. You can learn everyday watching the IPL. Learn how RCB do things, how Surya bhai does his stuff. A big one, we were searching for this win. It came one-sided which makes me happy. See what wicket we get next game and then decide.

RR's run-rate of 13.38 today is the second-best for any successful 200-plus chase in the IPL, after 14.03 by PBKS during their all-time record chase of 262 (18.4 overs) in Kolkata last year

Jaiswal: Incredible innings, one of the best I've seen. Hope he'll keep doing it for us for a long time. I was just telling him to keep going. He was incredible today. He just played amazing shots. He works hard in the nets, we can see that. He has the game, he has the temperament and mentality. Wish him all the luck, and he should do well. We were talking about that. Somebody needs to stay and finish the game. Last few games we haven't finished the game. But we tried our best. I feel whoever is in the middle, that guy has to make sure to take the responsibility. Luckily I was there today and I tried my best. Our coach has told us to take one game at a time. We will give hundred percent in each and every game. In the end it's a beautiful day and a beautiful game of cricket, we need to enjoy it.

Shubman Gill: They took the game away from us in the powerplay and credit to them for that. There were a couple of things that we could have done better but it's very easy to sit out and say those things. Some chances came early our way, couldn't grab those but in hindsight?I think there are some areas that we need to work on as a group. (On sitting out in the second innings) Felt a little back spasm in my back and we have a game couple of days after this, so the physio didn't want to take a chance. What happened in the previous match - win or lose - we take one game as it is. The next match is at Ahmedabad, we have had a good run there, so hopefully we'll be able to continue that. (On?Vaibhav Suryavanshi) It was his day. His hitting was just tremendous and he made full use of his day.

22:56 Local Time, 17:26 GMT, 22:56 IST: If one moment summed up this game then that's of Rahul Dravid - RR's head coach - off his wheelchair to applaud Suryavanshi's 100. Dravid for the uninitiated has been in a wheelchair ever since he hurt his leg while playing cricket with his sons in Bengaluru. He has often been seen in this tournament not even getting off his wheelchair to talk to everyone. But tonight all that went out of the window. Right now, Suryavanshi is the cynosure of all eyes as he is mobbed left, right and centre by his RR mates. The 14-year-old kid is trying his best to lap it all up. What a knock and he along with Jaiswal just lit up Jaipur. Jaiswal was dropped by Buttler early on and from there it was just carnage. Boundaries and sixes flowed and it was Suryavanshi's night. Rashid Khan who was deputising for Gill had no answers as did his attack. The 2nd fastest ton ever in IPL history and the chase was almost done by the time he got out. Jaiswal and Riyan Parag finished it off with 25 balls to spare. 25 balls in a chase of 210. Just let that soak in. GT were shell-shocked and a treat for the RR faithful who turned up in Jaipur tonight. Words fall short for what Suryavanshi has done tonight. Stay tuned for the post-match stuff...

Washington Sundar to Riyan Parag, SIX, Riyan Parag ends things in style. A flat back of a length delivery just outside off, Parag so quickly goes on the back foot and with one swing of the bat, sends the pull way back over deep mid-wicket. Such fast hands and RR have decimated GT in the chase here
