Mon Apr 28 14:30:00 UTC 2025: ## Sai Sudharsan Reclaims IPL 2025 Orange Cap from Virat Kohli
**Jaipur, [Date]:** Gujarat Titans’ young opener Sai Sudharsan has snatched back the IPL 2025 Orange Cap from Virat Kohli within 24 hours. Kohli, the Royal Challengers Bangalore star, had briefly taken the lead after scoring a half-century against Delhi Capitals on Sunday. However, Sudharsan’s 39-run knock off 30 balls against Rajasthan Royals on Monday, despite falling short of a fifty, was enough to regain the top spot.
Sudharsan’s impressive form continues, with 456 runs at an average of 57.00 in 9 matches, including five half-centuries. This performance pushes Kohli to second place with 443 runs at an average of 63.28 in 10 matches. Mumbai Indians’ Suryakumar Yadav (427 runs in 10 matches) sits in third, followed by Lucknow Super Giants’ Nicholas Pooran (404 runs in 10 matches).
In the RR vs GT match, Sudharsan and captain Shubman Gill put on a 93-run opening partnership. Sudharsan’s innings ended at 39 runs, while Gill went on to score 84 off 50 balls, narrowly missing another century after a near-century in the previous match. Gujarat Titans posted a challenging 209/4. The match saw Gill and Jos Buttler (50* off 26) forming a strong partnership of 74 runs after Sudharsan’s dismissal.
