Sai Sudharsan, a batter, has played five IPL seasons, all of them with Gujarat Titans. One title came along the way.

The arrival

Sai Sudharsan arrived through the auction: Gujarat Titans paid ₹20 lakh, the base price.

That first season brought 5 matches and 145 runs, and ended with Gujarat Titans as champions. The best was still to come.

The peak

The high point with the bat was 2025, for Gujarat Titans: 759 runs at an average of 54.2, striking at 156.2 in a season when the league as a whole struck at 152.9, with 1 hundred and 6 fifties, and a highest score of 108 not out. There were three seasons of 400 runs or more in all (2024, 2025 and 2026).

One franchise

Sai Sudharsan has spent the whole IPL career with Gujarat Titans, from 2022 to 2026. The club won the title with Sai Sudharsan in the side: 2022.

How the runs came

Across the career, Sai Sudharsan has struck at 149.2. The league around those same seasons, weighted by how much batting each one involved, struck at 150.4, so the scoring rate has tracked the league's almost exactly. 61% of the runs came in fours and sixes: 258 fours and 83 sixes.

The ball-by-ball record adds the detail. 29.1% of the balls Sai Sudharsan faced were dot balls, a lower share than 98% of the 140 batters who have faced 500 balls or more in the IPL. A six came every 20.3 balls, and a four every 6.5.

The fielding record: 14 catches and 2 run-outs.

At the auction

Sai Sudharsan has gone under the hammer once. The price was ₹20 lakh, paid by Gujarat Titans in 2022.

Seasons without an auction entry were played under a retention, a trade or a signing made outside the auction.

Where it stands

Sai Sudharsan has made 57 IPL appearances, the latest for Gujarat Titans in 2026, and has won 4 player-of-the-match awards.
