Match Preview:

The Sunrisers Hyderabad will host the Gujarat Titans at the Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium. With the IPL 2024 playoff race heating up, SRH will look to seal their spot by winning their remaining fixtures. On the other hand, GT was the third team to be eliminated from the playoff race but will look to ensure a strong finish to their disappointing season. Notably, this will be the second match-up between the two teams with Gujarat registering a comfortable win in Ahemadabad.

Analysis

The Sunrisers Hyderabad have been at the forefront of the change in approach across the IPL this season. SRH has been one of the most dominant teams, especially with the bat, thanks to consistent performances from Abhishek Sharma, Travis Head, Nitish Reddy and Heinrich Klaasen. On the bowling front, SRH has made massive improvements with Pat Cummins and T Natarajan being in top form.

Gujarat Titans have had a disappointing season which has been largely credited to the departure of Hardik Pandya and Mohammed Shami’s injury. Further, the GT batting has been a massive letdown with no batters other than Shubman Gill and Sai Sudharsan failing to score runs. Similarly, their bowling attack has been inconsistent with Rashid Khan gradually returning to top form.
