The Gujarat Titans host the Chennai Super Kings in a high-stakes IPL group match in Ahmedabad. Titans have already secured playoff qualification but will push for a win to secure second place. Super Kings must win and hope for other results to advance. Titans players Shubman Gill, Sai Sudharsan, and Kagiso Rabada are in excellent form. The venue’s large boundaries and fast outfield may favor the home side. The Titans are favorites to win, with Sudharsan expected to score 35+ runs and Rabada tipped to take at least two wickets.

Match Analysis


The last match at Ahmedabad saw the Titans post a lower than average score of 168/5 off their 20 overs, but they rolled the Sunrisers for just 86 runs in under 15 overs.

The pitch at the Narendra Modi Stadium is known to be a batting paradise, with consistent pace and bounce, with good strokeplay rewarded by a speedy outfield. The track has tended to slow down somewhat in recent weeks in the latter stages of the match, which presents a challenge to batters and levels the contest out for the bowlers, even with the expected evening dew.

Average scores at the stadium hover around 185, with a lower number of sixes due to the large boundaries. The Titans hit just four sixes in their last match at the stadium, against the Sunrisers, who themselves hit four sixes despite being rolled for under 100.

Betting Markets to Watch


Result

The Titans have enjoyed a great run of form, despite losing their last match, and with home ground advantage they have my backing to take the win.

Player Performance 

Sanju Samson has scored 87*, 28, 20 and 27 in his last four knocks and has the form to pull off a big innings to end the group phases.

Score Over/Under Runs 

Sai Sudharsan (554 runs) and Shubman Gill (552 runs) are second and third in the IPL runs list and are worth backing to be in the runs in their final group match. Sudharsan has been more consistent while Gill has scored bigger, so I’m going to back Sudharsan to score over 34 runs.

Take Over/Under Wickets

Kagiso Rabada has figures of 2/22, 2/33 and 3/28 in his last four matches and is worth backing to take two wickets or more in the match.
