KKR vs GT Match Preview
- In the previous game, Shreyas Iyer scored 85 runs off 51 balls, and he is our pick for KKR’s highest run scorer in this match. Umesh Yadav has taken 10 wickets in the competition so far and is a strong contender to be KKR’s leading wicket taker against Gujarat Titans.
- Shubman Gill has two half-centuries in the 2022 IPL, and we predict him to be the best run scorer for the Gujarat Titans in this game. Lockie Ferguson has eight wickets in six games, and we believe the New Zealander will be the Gujarat Titans’ top wicket taker against KKR.
- Shreyas Iyer (236 runs) and Hardik Pandya (228 runs) lead their respective teams’ runs charts.
On Saturday afternoon at the DY Patil Stadium, Kolkata Knight Riders and Gujarat Titans will face off in Match 35 of the 2022 Indian Premier League. So far in the tournament, Kolkata Knight Riders have won three of their seven games. All but one of Gujarat Titans’ six matches have ended in victories. The game starts at 15:30 local time in Navi Mumbai.
Kolkata Knight Riders have now lost three games in a row, despite the fact that their most recent loss was by only seven runs. They’ll be buoyed by their recent performance and should be competitive against this opposition.
So far in the campaign, the Gujarat Titans have only lost one game. To win this match, they have a very good team.

Kolkata Knight Riders Team News & Probable Playing XIs
With Shivam Mavi replacing Aman Khan, Shreyas Iyer led out a team with one change ahead of their game against Rajasthan Royals. In the loss on Monday, four players made ducks, and KKR will need a far better team batting performance in this encounter.
