In pursuit of 165, Gujarat\u2019s chase was shaped by Gill\u2019s steady 56 off 40 balls, before Jos Buttler took charge in the closing overs with a rapid 60 off only 27 deliveries. The win lifts the Titans to fifth place in the standings, improving their record to two victories and two defeats from four matches, with four points and a net run rate of -0.029.<\/p>\n<h2>Match outcome: Titans seal a seven-wicket win<\/h2>\n<p>Lucknow set a target of 165, and Gujarat chased it down with plenty of room to spare. Gill anchored the innings with measured strokeplay, ensuring the chase remained under control, while Buttler\u2019s late acceleration ensured the finishing job was done quickly. By completing the chase comfortably, Gujarat earned a significant boost in their position on the points table.<\/p>\n<h2>Gill\u2019s milestone and the numbers behind it<\/h2>\n<p>The victory also came with a landmark moment for Gill, who became the youngest batter in IPL history to reach 4,000 runs. Gill achieved the feat at 26 years and 216 days, surpassing the earlier record held by Virat Kohli, who had reached the mark in 2016 at 27 years and 195 days.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Gill has now scored 4,031 runs in 118 IPL innings.<\/li>\n<li>His IPL average stands at 39.91.<\/li>\n<li>He has recorded 28 half-centuries and four hundreds.<\/li>\n<li>In terms of quickest route by innings, he is fifth-fastest to 4,000 runs.<\/li>\n<li>KL Rahul leads the innings-based list, reaching the milestone in 104 innings.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Next fixtures for Gujarat and Lucknow<\/h2>\n<p>With this result, Lucknow fell to sixth in the points table. Gujarat Titans will now turn their attention to their next game against Kolkata Knight Riders on April 17. Lucknow Super Giants, meanwhile, are scheduled to play Royal Challengers Bengaluru on April 15.<\/p>\n<h2>What it means for the IPL standings<\/h2>\n<p>The seven-wicket win keeps Gujarat on an upward trajectory early in the season, placing them fifth with four points from four matches. Lucknow\u2019s defeat sees them slip to sixth, setting up a crucial bounce-back opportunity for their upcoming fixture.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Shubman Gill produced a classy half-century as Gujarat Titans secured a comfortable seven-wicket victory over Lucknow Super Giants at the Ekana Cricket Stadium on Sunday.&hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":2216,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_yoast_wpseo_title":"IPL 2024: Gill 56, Buttler 60 Helps GT Beat LSG","_yoast_wpseo_metadesc":"Shubman Gill\u2019s 56 and Jos Buttler\u2019s late blitz guide Gujarat Titans to a seven-wicket win over Lucknow Super Giants in IPL 2024.","footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-2218","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-ipl"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.3 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>IPL 2024: Gill 56, Buttler 60 Helps GT Beat LSG<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Shubman Gill\u2019s 56 and Jos Buttler\u2019s late blitz guide Gujarat Titans to a seven-wicket win over Lucknow Super Giants in IPL 2024.\" \/>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/1win.za.com\/ipl\/shubman-gill-stars-as-gt-beat-lsg-buttler-finishes-to-lift-titans-up\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"IPL 2024: Gill 56, Buttler 60 Helps GT Beat LSG\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Shubman Gill\u2019s 56 and Jos Buttler\u2019s late blitz guide Gujarat Titans to a seven-wicket win over Lucknow Super Giants in IPL 2024.\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/1win.za.com\/ipl\/shubman-gill-stars-as-gt-beat-lsg-buttler-finishes-to-lift-titans-up\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"1Win India\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:published_time\" content=\"2026-04-12T15:15:22+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:image\" content=\"https:\/\/1win.za.com\/ipl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/ipl-2026-shubman-gill-scripts-75dc.webp\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:width\" content=\"1196\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:height\" content=\"691\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:type\" content=\"image\/webp\" \/>\n<meta name=\"author\" content=\"Arjun Patel\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:card\" content=\"summary_large_image\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:label1\" content=\"Written by\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data1\" content=\"Arjun Patel\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:label2\" content=\"Est. reading time\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data2\" content=\"2 minutes\" \/>\n<script type=\"application\/ld+json\" class=\"yoast-schema-graph\">{\"@context\":\"https:\\\/\\\/schema.org\",\"@graph\":[{\"@type\":\"Article\",\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/1win.za.com\\\/ipl\\\/shubman-gill-stars-as-gt-beat-lsg-buttler-finishes-to-lift-titans-up#article\",\"isPartOf\":{\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/1win.za.com\\\/ipl\\\/shubman-gill-stars-as-gt-beat-lsg-buttler-finishes-to-lift-titans-up\"},\"author\":{\"name\":\"Arjun Patel\",\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/1win.za.com\\\/ipl\\\/#\\\/schema\\\/person\\\/9aac810730409fd3131f08f34023f33e\"},\"headline\":\"Shubman Gill Stars as GT Beat LSG;
