Shubman Gill shared a cryptic post after Gujarat Titans's win over Royal Challengers Bengaluru in Ahmedabad, and it quickly went viral. Gujarat Titans continued their late-season surge with a four-wicket victory at the Narendra Modi Stadium. After restricting RCB to 155 with a disciplined bowling effort, GT chased down the target in 15.5 overs. Gill set the tone with a blistering 43 off 18 balls, while Bhuvneshwar Kumar kept RCB in the contest with figures of 3/28, dismissing key batters including Gill and Jos Buttler. Despite a few middle-order hiccups, Rahul Tewatia (27*) and Rashid Khan guided GT home.

Contributions from Devdutt Padikkal (40) and Rajat Patidar weren't enough, as GT bowlers, led by Arshad Khan (3/22) and Rashid, triggered a collapse to bowl RCB out for 155. With this win, Gujarat Titans avenged their earlier defeat at the Chinnaswamy Stadium, where Sai Sudharsan's century had gone in vain in a five-wicket loss. The latest match also had its share of controversy, particularly around a catch involving Jason Holder, but the result ultimately went in favour of the hosts. After the victory, Gill took a subtle dig at RCB on Instagram, playing on their popular slogan "Play Bold." He wrote: "Play hold @jasonholder98, bold performance by the team tonight." The post quickly went viral and grabbed even more attention because Gill had made a similar social media gesture after GT's win against Chennai Super Kings at Chepauk. On that occasion, he shared a picture with a whistle on a flight, captioned: "Nandri Chennai."
