GT vs SRH: Match Overview

Gujarat Titans

Wriddhiman Saha and Shubman Gill will probably bat first for GT. In the three most recent IPL seasons, Gill has scored more than 400 runs. His best season came in 2022, as he stacked up 483 runs with a best of 96. In IPL 2022, his strike rate and average were 132.33 and 34.5, respectively. Gill was one of the backbones in their batting arrangement. He remained unbeaten in 45 races to assist his side in returning home in a low scoring last.

Wriddhiman Saha was additionally in fair touch in the fifteenth IPL season. In his 11 appearances, he scored 317 runs with a best of 68. The Titans' third baseman is expected to be Matthew Wade. In the previous edition, he was not particularly impressive. However, the Aussie is in great shape in 2023. He is now performing admirably in the PSL as well, following an impressive BBL season.

South Africa's dangerous middle-order batsman David Miller will come after Hardik Pandya. He gained notoriety as "Killer Miller" for his prodigious ability to destroy any bowling lineup. The southpaw, who scored 481 runs at a strike rate of 142.73, was unquestionably Gujarat Titans' top batsman in 2022. In those 16 innings, he had a 68.71 inning average. He will be essential to GT's hopes in the league once more.

The four regular pacers for GT will probably be Joshua Little, Shivam Mavi, Yash Dayal, and Mohammed Shami. There have only been 41 IPL games between the last three of these four names. With their combined expertise, Mohammed Shami and Hardik Pandya will improve their quick bowling.

The other three speedsters, meanwhile, are still rather young for this level. They have yet to establish their competency in this format. In addition, Mohammed Shami is the only developed new ball bowler for Gujarat. Although Joshua Little is a respectable option, GT may undoubtedly leak runs during the powerplay.

Sunrisers Hyderabad

Before an equal number of straight losses stopped its progress to the playoffs last season, it bounced back from a two-match loss with five straight victories. After making it to the last four stages five consecutive seasons, the 2016 winner was unable to advance to the playoffs in the following two iterations. Aiden Markram will take up the captain's responsibilities from Kane Williamson, who succeeded David Warner in 2021, making Aiden Markram the third different Sunrisers captain in four seasons. But this time, the Orange Army appears to be a well-balanced team that can stay consistent and defy the seismic drop tendency.

Given that Washington Sundar can bat as late as No. 8, Hyderabad has exceptional batting depth. Mayank Agarwal and Harry Brook's arrivals increased the team's star power and gave them alternatives in the top and middle orders. Markram is a reliable base for SRH and can provide consistency in a lineup that has a lot of power hitters, like Heinrich Klaasen, Abdul Samad, Rahul Tripathi, and Brook.

There are various weaknesses in Sunrisers' PowerPlay batting and death overs bowling. Despite having a strong left-right opening partnership, Abhishek and Agarwal lack offensive punch in the PowerPlay. Agarwal has scored a little over 121 in the PowerPlay, but Abhishek strikes at 131.88 in the opening six overs. Hyderabad will be depending on T. Natarajan, who collects wickets but may leak runs at the end of innings since Bhuvneshwar Kumar's death-bowling prowess is waning and Umran Malik and Marco Jansen have less experience in that stage of the game.

GT vs SRH: Pitch report

There are six red dirt fields and five black soil pitches at the site. In T20, it's unlikely that the black soil pitches, which dry more quickly, give more bounce than the red soil pitches. Recently, when batting first, hitters have scored easily.

GT vs SRH: Weather report

It's the Indian summertime, which means it will be quite hot during the daytime with a maximum temperature increasing from 39 C in May, but it will get a little cooler at night with a temperature drop to 24 C. The temperature may increase much further from 40 degrees Celsius in May. Between the beginning of April and the middle of May, there might possibly be some summer showers.

GT vs SRH: Toss prediction

Teams that bat first have prevailed in a lot of games this season. Teams would feel comfortable defending a total in these scenarios since the field usually plays slower than average. In Ahmedabad, scoring seems to be more difficult than defending it, as we learned in the last game. The pursuit of large scores has been active. In this match, the side that wins the toss won't second-guess their decision to bat first.

GT vs SRH: Pre-play prediction

Best batter: Shubman Gill (GT), Harry Brook (SRH)

Best bowler: Mohammed Shami (GT), Aiden Markram (SRH)

Best all-rounder: Rashid Khan (GT), Marco Jansen (SRH)

Player of the match: Rashid Khan (GT)

GT vs SRH: Match Prediction

Both sides have a formidable opening duo, yet the Gujarat Titans seem to have the advantage based on the performances of the batters later down the order. The team's bowling assault also outperforms that of the opposition. Both Rashid Khan and Hardik Pandya are capable strikers of the ball as well as good bowlers. Given that SRH's bowling is not the finest in the competition, we should expect an early start from the home team in this match. This match should be won by the Gujarat Titans.
