Holder stars in IPL table topping win for Gujarat Titans

Former West Indies captain Jason Holder took three wickets for 20 runs, as Gujarat Titans hammered Sunrisers Hyderabad by 82 runs in the IPL on Tuesday.

It was their fifth straight win and sees the Titans topping the points table.

Batting first in Ahmedabad, Titans got up to 168 for five with opener Sai Sudharsan stroking 61 from 44 balls, while Washington Sundar added 50 from 33 balls. Holder was left unbeaten on 11 from 10 deliveries.

In their turn at the wicket, Hyderabad never recovered after slumping to 23 for three in the fourth over and were eventually all out for just 86. 

Pat Cummins top scored with 19, as Holder combined with Player-of-the-Match Kagiso Rabada to wreck their innings.

Rabada grabbed three for 28 and Prasidh Krishna two for 23.
