KOLKATA: It's turning into a template now: Score 200-plus, stick to the good lengths and let the asking rate do the rest. Only the process was different this time. The outfield wasn't as small as Eden Gardens, the pitch wasn't playing as well as Mullanpur, and Jofra Archer was bending his back to put some serious pace behind the ball. So, Gujarat Titans bided their time through two steady partnerships before Shahrukh Khan, Rahul Tewatia and Rashid Khan delivered in double-quick time to set Rajasthan Royals an imposing 218 to chase for victory. RR lost by 58 runs.
