Stats covered: SRH register multiple unwanted records in crushing 86 all out against GT

Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) endured a night to forget as they collapsed to one of the worst defeats in franchise history during their Indian Premier League (IPL) 2026 clash against the Gujarat Titans (GT) at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad.

Chasing a modest target of 169, SRH were completely dismantled by Gujarat’s pace attack and were bowled out for just 86 runs in 14.5 overs, handing GT a dominant 82-run victory.

The collapse began right from the opening over when Mohammed Siraj dismissed Travis Head for a duck before Kagiso Rabada removed Abhishek Sharma and Ishan Kishan cheaply.

SRH never recovered from the early collapse as wickets kept tumbling at regular intervals, with only skipper Pat Cummins showing brief resistance late in the innings.
