KKR vs GT: Injury scare for Sai Sudharsan before IPL 2026 playoffs? Gujarat Titans star retires hurt after hit on elbow

Gujarat Titans suffered an injury scare after opening batter Sai Sudharsan left the field after playing just 13 balls against Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) during their chase of 248 in an crucial Indian Premier League (IPL) game at the Indian Premier League (IPL). One of the main pillars of Gujarat Titans' success in IPL 2026, Sudharsan went down in pain after being hit on the elbow by a Kartik Tyagi delivery.

The incident happened on the final ball of the third over. Having already scored 23 runs in the innings, Sudharsan banged the ball short of the length. Sudharsan went a bit early into the shit and the ball hit thud on his left elbow. The southpaw fell on the pitch and lost his bat, but got up to complete the run. But he went down the ground grimacing in pain.

He immediately removed his gloves and held his left elbow. The Gujarat Titans physio came running

The physio is out in the middle. Not a good sight. Ice pack applied on the left elbow and Sai Sudharsan is walking off the field - retired hurt. Jos Buttler is ready outside the boundary rope but it's Nishant Sindhu who's walked out to the middle.
