Gujarat Titans Preview
Shubman Gill and his team stamped their authority in the last game with a scintillating 10-wicket win against the Delhi Capitals. It was one of the best batting displays in a run chase this season as they easily chased down a big total. Having booked a berth in the playoffs, Gill wants to build momentum by winning the next two games. They had lost to the Super Giants earlier this season and shall look to even it.
Shubman Gill and Sai Sudarshan set up a 205-run stand in the last game, and the pair will look to deliver a strong start. Jos Buttler has done well this season at No. 3 and will look to build partnerships in the middle order with Sherfane Rutherford and Shahrukh Khan. Rahul Tewatia and Rashid Khan are powerful hitters, and the team expects them to create fireworks in the final overs.
Arshad Khan bowled brilliantly in the last game, and the team expects early wickets from him and Mohammad Siraj. Kagiso Rabada struggled in the comeback game, and the team expects a good show from him in the middle overs with Prasidh Krishna. Rashid Khan and Ravisrinivasan Sai Kishore will look to use the conditions to their advantage and do well in this game.
Lucknow Super Giants Preview
Rishabh Pant’s team is out of contention for the playoffs. The side suffered a 6-wicket loss against the Sunrisers Hyderabad in the last game, where the bowling attack let them down and failed to defend a big total. The side will look to put up a good show as they play for their pride. Pant expects a better show from his bowlers in this game to have a chance.
Aiden Markram and Mitchell Marsh put up a 115-run stand in the last game, and the team expects a similar start. Pant’s lack of form has hurt the team, and he will look to do well in the middle order with Nicholas Pooran and Ayush Badoni. Abdul Samad and Shardul Thakur will have much responsibility in the lower middle order, as the rest of the batting has struggled.
Akash Deep and William O’Rourke struggled with the new ball in the last game, and the team expects them to strike early. Shahbaz Ahmed and Avesh Khan must pick wickets in the middle overs to put pressure on the Gujarat Titans’ batters. Ravi Bishnoi and Shardul Thakur must do well in the supporting role, as the GT batters will take them on.
