Gujarat Titans (GT) enter the match following a narrow defeat to Delhi Capitals by four runs. Their bowlers, particularly Mohit Sharma, faced a tough time, with Sharma conceding 31 runs in his final over. Shubman Gill and his team must secure victories in all their remaining matches to keep their hopes alive for a top-four finish.
Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) are riding high on confidence after their victory over Sunrisers Hyderabad. Led by Faf Du Plessis, the team performed well with both bat and ball, securing their second win of the season. This win has provided a timely boost for RCB, who will now aim to build momentum with a string of victories.
Pitch Report
As India grapples with a severe heatwave, the afternoon in Ahmedabad is expected to be scorching hot. The team winning the toss will likely opt to bat first, capitalizing on the favorable batting conditions in the initial stages of the match. Additionally, the rising temperatures may result in the pitch offering more assistance to spinners in the latter part of the game.
