Mullanpur, Apr 21 (PTI) Gujarat Titans spinners did the star turn as last year’s runners-up beat Punjab Kings by three wickets in a low-scoring affair to bring their IPL campaign back on track here on Sunday. The spin troika of left-arm wrist spinner Noor Ahmed (2/20), Rashid Khan (1/15) and Sai Kishore (4/33) bowled out Punjab for a paltry 142 in 20 overs.

In reply, Gujarat Titans did totter a bit in middle phase before winning in 19.1overs. Skipper Shubman Gill (35) and specialist finisher Rahul Tewatia (36 not out off 18 balls) were prominent scorers in a successful chase.
