Gujarat Titans team members, who are in Hyderabad, for their IPL clash with Sunrisers Hyderabad on Sunday, tasted the popular sweet dish, ‘Shahtoot Malai’.
In a video that is now viral, Afghanistan cricketer Karim Janat tastes the dish and makes his mates try the popular delicacy.
Shahtoot Malai or Mulberry Malai, is a popular dessert in Hyderabad, made from Mulberries and milk cream. The delicious dish is something the locals die for, especially in summers.
As the rich cream melted in the mouth and gave way to the crunchy, yet juicy berries, the Gujarat Titans players were awestruck. After tasting the sweet, Karim rated it a 9 on 10, while Shahrukh Khan rated it 8.5.
Meanwhile, GT, who are placed number 3 on the points table, will take on bottom placed SRH in today’s match.
Sunrisers Hyderabad will certainly look to introspect on their no-holds-barred attacking philosophy in a bid to stem the rot caused by a hat-trick of defeats as they face a buoyant Gujarat Titans.
Titans, at the other end, are slowly gaining momentum and would be raring to go after a smashing win against Royal Challengers Bengaluru at the Chinnaswamy with batting mainstay Jos Buttler hitting the straps.
With B Sai Sudharsan providing solidity at the top alongside skipper Shubman Gill and Buttler coming in at one drop, Titans’ batting arsenal bears a solid look.
