Post ‘Nandri 2’ by Shubman Gill (Image: Shubman Gill/Instagram) Shubman Gill continued his trend of dropping viral post-match headlines after Gujarat Titans completed a dominant league double over Chennai Super Kings in IPL 2026.GT sealed a crushing win over CSK in Ahmedabad on May 21 to officially knock the five-time champions out of the play-off race while confirming their own top two spot. Gujarat finished the league stage with nine wins and five defeats from 14 matches. It was the second time this season that Gill and GT outclassed Chennai. The rivalry had already sparked one viral moment earlier in the campaign when Gujarat defeated CSK at Chepauk on 26 April.In this first encounter, GT’s bowling attack completely strangled Chennai after opting to field first. Kagiso Rabada took a fiery spell of 3/25 in the powerplay as CSK managed just 158/7. GT comfortably chased down the target as Sai Sudharsan smashed a brilliant 87 off 46 balls to guide the visitors home with 20 balls to spare. After that famous win in Chennai, Gill grabbed attention on social media by posting a picture with a whistle captioned: “Nandri Chennai”. The Gujarat skipper revived the banter after GT once again dismantled CSK in reverse at the Narendra Modi Stadium.Batting first, GT’s top order unleashed the carnage as Gill blasted 64 off 37 balls while Sai Sudharsan continued his sensational form with 84 off 53 deliveries. Jos Buttler then provided the finishing touch with a blazing unbeaten 57 off just 23 balls to power Gujarat to 229/4.CSK’s chase never recovered after Mohammed Siraj tore through the top order and cheaply dismissed Sanju Samson for a duck and skipper Ruturaj Gaikwad. Despite a quickfire 47 off 17 from Shivam Dube, CSK were bowled out for just 140 in 13.4 overs as Rashid Khan and Rabada cleaned up the innings.After an emphatic win, Gill once again stole the spotlight online with another cheeky headline aimed at CSK. The GT captain wrote after the win: “Nandri 2 yellow lights, blue finish.”
