TEAMS PREVIEW

Gujarat Titans Preview

Hardik Pandya's team suffered a 27-run loss against the Mumbai Indians in the last game. It was a rare failure from the side this season as their bowling attack took a beating. They sit at the top of the points table and are through to the next round. Pandya will look to build momentum ahead of the playoffs by winning this game.  

Wriddhiman Saha and Shubman Gill have scored 750 runs, and the pair will look to deliver a positive start in this contest. Hardik Pandya has done well and will look to add runs in the middle order with Vijay Shankar and David Miller. Rahul Tewatia and Abhinav Manohar are good players down the order, and they will look to add quick runs.  

Mohammad Shami has an important role with the new ball, and he will look to exploit the lack of form in the Sunrisers' camp with Mohit Sharma. Rashid Khan has claimed 23 wickets, and he will be the key bowler for the team. They will also need a good show from Noor Ahmed, Pandya, and Alzarri Joseph in this game.

Sunrisers Hyderabad Preview

Aiden Markram's side will play for its pride in the remaining games. They lost to the Lucknow Super Giants in the last game by 7 wickets and ended all hopes of making it to the playoffs. The team has been plagued by inconsistency in the batting department and a weak bowling attack. As they take on the strongest team this season, Markram would like better efforts from his players.  

They will need runs at the top from Anmolpreet Singh and Abhishek Sharma, as the GT attack has done well. Rahul Tripathi has done well at No. 3 and must anchor the innings with Heinrich Klaasen and Markram. The lower middle order must show intent in this game, and they will like to see runs from Glenn Phillips, Abdul Samad, and Bhuvneshwar Kumar. 

Bhuvneshwar Kumar and Fazalhaq Farooqi must bowl good spells upfront, as the Titans have their top-order players in good form. Mayank Markande and T Natarajan have been in good form, and the side will need tight spells from them. Sharma and Marco Jansen must deliver the goods in the supporting role.

PITCH AND WEATHER CONDITIONS

Weather Conditions

May 14 will be hot and humid in Ahmedabad, and we expect it to be another belter of a track where there would be little for the bowlers. The ball would hit the bat hard, creating several run-scoring opportunities for the batsmen. The side batting first would need 190 runs to feel comfortable.

Venue Details

Narendra Modi Stadium, Ahmedabad, has been a paradise for batsmen with a flat surface and lightning-fast outfield. Batsmen can hit through the line without any fear on this surface. Spinners have enjoyed a good run here as the ball turns sharply. Fast bowlers would get some assistance in the early part of the game.

Toss: To Bowl

The wicket has been good at this venue, and we have seen sides put up huge scores on the board. The track hasn't changed its character much in the second innings, and setting up a total is challenging. Hence the side that wins the toss would have little hesitation in bowling first on this surface.

GT vs SRH
Winning Prediction

Sunrisers Hyderabad have paid the price for a weak bowling attack. The lack of consistency in the top order has further hurt the side. They will have to play out of their skins to win this game. Gujarat Titans are in the next round, and they would like to build momentum. The top three have done well, and they will have the edge on a flat surface.
