GT vs CSK Preview
- Hardik Pandya has led the Gujarat Titans in batting in both of their recent games. Our pick for their highest run scorer facing CSK is the skipper. The Titans have an incredible season with the ball, and Lockie Ferguson is our pick to take the most wickets in this game.
- So far in the 2022 IPL, opener Robin Uthappa has two half-centuries. Against Gujarat Titans, he is our pick for CSK’s highest run scorer. Dwayne Bravo is one of the most consistent bowlers in T20 cricket history. In this game, we expect the seasoned CSK all-rounder to be their leading wicket taker.
- Against Rajasthan Royals, Hardik Pandya hit eight fours and four sixes. We think he’ll be the player who hits the most sixes in this game..
On Sunday evening at the MCA International Stadium, Gujarat Titans and Chennai Super Kings will face off in Match 29 of the 2022 Indian Premier League. Gujarat Titans have won four of their first five matches in the IPL. CSK lost their first four games, but won their final match against Royal Challengers Bangalore. The game starts at 19:30 local time in Pune.
By recovering from their first loss of the competition, the Gujarat Titans demonstrated that they are a team with spirit and ability. They won their last encounter convincingly against Rajasthan Royals and will be confident going into this game.
CSK entered the season as champions, but they struggled to get off to a good start. However, their 23-run victory over RCB will have boosted their spirits, and they will be confident in their chances in this encounter.
