Gujarat Titans did precisely that while <strong>clinching (win conclusively) <\/strong>the Indian Premier League (IPL) title through a <strong>clinical (extremely objective and realistic) <\/strong>display against Rajasthan Royals during Sunday\u2019s final in front of a <strong>delirious (Marked by uncontrolled excitement or emotion) <\/strong>home crowd at Ahmedabad. Summit clashes, except in rare episodes, can be <strong>tepid (Feeling or showing little interest or enthusiasm) <\/strong>affairs despite all the <strong>hype (intensive or exaggerated publicity) <\/strong>and the IPL climax <strong>dished out (Give or provide in small portions)<\/strong> a low-scoring <strong>tussle (struggle) <\/strong>on a dry surface. But credit is due to the Titans for remaining the stand-out unit through the tournament that remained <strong>anchored (fixed) <\/strong>in Mumbai and Pune before shifting base to Kolkata and Ahmedabad in the concluding <strong>stretch (extension)<\/strong>. The league also offered some <strong>redemption (recovery) <\/strong>for all-rounder Hardik Pandya, the Titans\u2019 captain. Often <strong>weighed down (burden)<\/strong> by injuries and the comparisons with Kapil Dev, Pandya finally <strong>turned the corner (Get past the worst point of a process)<\/strong>, leading Titans with <strong>finesse (A highly developed state of perfection)<\/strong>, scoring <strong>brisk (Quick and energetic) <\/strong>runs and <strong>prising (to obtain with difficulty) <\/strong>out valuable wickets like he did in the final \u2014 scalping Jos Buttler, Shimron Hetmyer and Royals\u2019 skipper Sanju Samson. Through the IPL\u2019s long summer, Titans always had consistent performers <strong>chipping in (contribute)<\/strong> without fail. In the final too, players <strong>cutting across (to precede or go beyond considerations of)<\/strong> skill-sets and nationalities excelled, be it spinner Rashid Khan or batters Shubman Gill and David Miller while Hardik too <strong>etched (to depict or impress sharply and distinctly) <\/strong>a 34. For Royals, there were expectations about the team <strong>wresting (to get by effort) <\/strong>the cup as a tribute to its first captain, the late Shane Warne.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, sport does not entirely ride on emotion and Royals stumbled at the last step. But there was no shame as the squad did remarkably well until the final with Buttler leading the run charts, scoring tons almost at will. Royals last won the title during the 2008 inaugural edition and the latest comeback augurs well for Samson\u2019s men. Another debutant unit, Lucknow Super Giants, also performed fine to book a last-four slot. That Titans and Giants stayed the course allayed those fears about a bloated league with 10 teams, throwing up forgettable cricket. Instead it was the established behemoths, former champion Mumbai Indians and defending champion Chennai Super Kings, that ate humble pie and reiterated the surprise factor in sport. India\u2019s blue-chip batters \u2014 skipper Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli \u2014 had a horror run while the success of rookie speedster Umran Malik, spinner Yuzvendra Chahal and veteran Dinesh Karthik, who blitzed with a strike-rate of 183.33, revealed that hope is intrinsic to the league. In a year that will witness the ICC Twenty20 World Cup, the league was a selection-primer. But a few worries remain and those are centred on the IPL\u2019s commercial heft. The drop in TRPs hints at saturation with the event and the organisers need to find ways to get back viewership. Other than that, the league is here to stay with 10 teams to boot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Want to improve your vocabulary further?&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.practicemock.com\/blog\/vocabulary\/the-hindu-editorial-vocabulary-download-free-pdf\/\">Download the Lists of Word-Meanings of Previous Months here<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Go through these difficult words\/phrases, improve your word-power and score much better marks in the English language section.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":19994,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_uag_custom_page_level_css":"","_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"_uf_show_specific_survey":0,"_uf_disable_surveys":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[5],"tags":[69],"class_list":["post-19991","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-ibps-so","tag-editorials-difficult-words-2"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v25.9 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>The Hindu Editorial Vocabulary\u2013 May 31, 2022;
