In a remarkable achievement, young Indian batter B Sai Sudharsan has dethroned swashbuckling West Indies batter Nicholas Pooran, claiming the orange cap in the IPL 2025. Sudharsan attained the phenomenal feat during Gujarat Titans' (GT) ongoing encounter against Delhi Capitals (DC) at Narendra Modi Stadium. 

Sudharsan Goes Past Pooran To Claim The Orange Cap

B Sai Sudharsan has showcased incredible batting prowess in the IPL 2025. The left-handed batter has been remarkably consistent with the bat, emerging as GT's most prolific batter this season.
