IPL 2025 was a great Season. To be honest, it gave India a lot of good cricket, and it seems like it’s going to be repeated—it seems like Sai Sudarshan.
Sai Sudarshan, positioned between the big giants Shubman Gill and Josh Buttler, has carved out a niche for himself in the strong Gujarat Titans team and is playing every match with it. It is truly remarkable.
Playing for the big franchise, Gujarat Titans, can make his future much better. If the Indian team gives him this opportunity, Sai Sudarshan’s life can be made.
Sai Sudarshan Stats in IPL 2025
A controlled, prudent, measured, and at the right time, strong and aggressive inning of 82 runs at a strike rate of 153 was really commendable. Then, 58 runs against the Rajasthan Royals was extraordinary and was enough to earn respect in the match.
Gujarat Titans assistant coach Matthew Wade said: “He bats very well, which is impressive and huge for us. He can play in any situation and can handle pressure. We will see him playing for India very soon,” said Australian opener Matthew Wade about him.
Chris Brown told reporters, “I support Wade’s observation” that Gujarat Titans’ Sai Sudarshan and Sai Kishore are both ready for the Indian national team. Sai Kishore may get a place when Ravindra Jadeja retires, and Sai Sudarshan can play in all formats.
Sai Sudarshan has scored 275 runs in his last five matches at an average of 58.60 and a strike rate of 151.67 in the IPL 2025 season and is also second in the Orange Cap race behind Nicholas Pooran.
Sai Sudharsan is one of the most impressive youngsters from Tamil Nadu, GT got him for just 20 Lakh, Williamson ruled out & he got the opportunity to bat at 3 and taken with both hands.

His 82-run innings off 53 balls against the Rajasthan Royals played a key role in the Gujarat Titans’ victory, earning him the Player of the Match award.
IPL 2025 is a season that brings out young players who have won trophies in the Ranji Trophy, Duleep Trophy, and Anna Hazare Trophy. Sudarshan scored 304 runs with a double century in Ranji Trophy and grabbed everyone’s attention by scoring a maiden Test century during India A’s tour of Australia.
Some cricket experts say he should make his Test debut for India. But some experts feel he still needs to strengthen his batting skills.
IPL 2025 is a league match where no player is judged good or bad on any given day, but ahead is the upcoming T20 World Cup in 2026. He is a strong player who has established himself as one of India’s top-order batsmen and is expected to make it to the Indian national team very soon.
