Former Indian captain Sunil Gavaskar reckons Gujarat Titans are playing a fearless brand of cricket but at the same time they are not thinking too much about the result.

Speaking on ‘Cricket Live’ on Star Sports, Gavaskar said: “Gujarat are playing with such freedom and they are fearless (in approach). There’s no fear of the world in their game and that’s why they are winning.”

“Of course, you wish to win even when you are playing in your backyard but a loss doesn’t mean that it’s an end to the world, that’s the approach with which they are stepping on the pitch. They are enjoying their game and playing positive cricket.”
