As mentioned, the Titans pulled off the highest successful run-chase in franchise history despite an early blow as skipper Shubman Gill fell early.
Key partnerships, Buttler with Sai Sudharsan (60-run partnership) and Sherfane Rutherford (119-run partnership), kept GT in the hunt.
Meanwhile, with 10 needed off the final over, Rahul Tewatia sealed the win with a four and a six off Mitchell Starc.

The Titans' second-highest successful run-chase came against the Royal Challengers Bengaluru in IPL 2023, chasing down 198.
Virat Kohli's unbeaten 101* off 61 saw RCB post 197/5 in their 20 overs.
In reply, Shubman Gill ravaged through RCB's bowling until smoking an unbeaten 104* off 52, which combined with Vijay Shankar's fifty (53), powered GT to a six-wicket win in 19.1 overs.
