At one stage, the Delhi Daredevils innings seemed like a six-hitting contest between Rishabh Pant and Sanju Samson. The two put on 143 runs in 10.3 overs.

While Samson fell for 61, Pant nearly became the youngest centurion in the IPL.

I have seen the future of Indian batting. And it's on TV right now! #Pant #Samson #DDvGL #IPL

The successful chase meant Gujarat Lions were out of contention for a playoff spot, the first time a team featuring Suresh Raina had failed to make it past the league phase.
Moment of the game was @ImRaina consoling @RishabPant777. That's what it's all abt! Well played Pant. #IPL

Do you agree?
Strike when the iron is hot. Play a youngster when he's in Red Hot Form. I'd pick Pant for the Champions Trophy. Will you? #IPL
