Earlier, Shubman Gill embodiment was in his 50-ball-84 that brought Gujarat Titans to a healthy 209 for 4.
The Gujarat Titans Skipper scored his fourth century with the help of five four and four Sixes, and added 93 for the opening position with an in-shape Sai Sudharsan (39 out of 30 balls).
The Titans were ready to capitalize on a solid platform that was laid by the duo and Jos Butler (50 not from 26 balls) made a minced meat from Royals' ordinary bowling attack on it, in which four sixes set off three boundaries.
Buttler carried out Reverse pulls and slope as they used the pace of deliveries to punish his former Rajasthan Royals team, a side that completely confused their auctions without match-winning bowler in his ranks.
Gill showed the Cricket Smarts by picking the shorter border in one of the leg side and the RR-Bowlers were guilty of driving to his pads.
There were pick-up pulls one over square leg and one over the center of the middle but the flickered maximum of Yudhvir Singh stood out.
There was also a perfect off-drive and his opening partner Sudharsan was more than happy to give his part of the strike. Once Sudharsan was fired, the dangerous buttler stacked further misery with a 24-run about Wanindu Hasaranga, including three sixes and a border.
