The Gujarat Titans face Sunrisers Hyderabad in a pivotal IPL 2026 group stage match at Ahmedabad. Both sides come in with impressive form—each winning seven of their last nine matches. The Titans have dominated this match-up historically and will rely on their strong bowling, led by Rabada, while the Sunrisers lean on power hitters Heinrich Klaasen and Abhishek Sharma.

Team News


Gujarat Titans: The Titans are riding the crest of a wave of superb form but will be hoping the rest of their top order starts to pitch in with substantial innings. Their bowling has been strong, driven by the powerhouse trio of Kagiso Rabada, Jason Holder and Rashid Khan.

Possible XI: Sai Sudharsan, Shubman Gill (c), Jos Buttler, Washington Sundar, Jason Holder, Rahul Tewatia, Nishant Sindhu, Rashid Khan, Arshad Khan, Kagiso Rabada, Mohammed Siraj.

Sunrisers Hyderabad: With the top two runscorers in the IPL and the joint 4th wicket-taker, the Sunrisers are proving hard to beat and are unlikely to need to change their line-up.

Possible XI: Travis Head, Smaran Ravichandran, Abhishek Sharma, Nitish Kumar Reddy, Ishan Kishan, Heinrich Klaasen, Salil Arora, Pat Cummins (c), Eshan Malinga, Shivang Kumar, Sakib Hussain.

Key Stats


  • Gujarat Titans Shubman Gill is 4th on the IPL runs list with 462 runs (ave 46.2).
  • Gujarat Titans’ Sai Sudharsan has scored 100, 87, 57 & 55 in his last 5 innings.
  • Gujarat Titan Kagiso Rabada is 3rd on the wickets list with 18 wickets (S/R 14.0).
  • Sunrisers Hyderabads’ Heinrich Klaasen leads the IPL runs list with 494 runs (ave 54.9).
  • Sunrisers Hyderabad’s Abhishek Sharma is 2nd in the IPL sixes list (36).
  • Sunrisers Hyderabad’s Eshan Malinga is joint 4th in the IPL wickets list (16 wickets, ave 22.6).

Match Analysis


The last match at the Narendra Modi Stadium was on 3 May, when the Titans beat the Punjab Kings by four wickets with just one ball in the bank. The Titans restricted the Kings to a score of just 163/9 off their 20 overs, with Jason Holder knocking over four of the Kings batters. 

They then knocked off the runs off the fifth ball of the final overs, with Sai Sudharsan top-scoring with 57 off 41 balls. The Titans hit just five sixes in their innings in response to the seven hit by the Kings.

While the pitch has traditionally been something of a batting paradise, with consistent pace and bounce and a speedy outfield, in recent encounters the track has tended to slow down somewhat in the latter stages of the match, making strokeplay tricky and assisting the bowling side, despite the usual presence of dew.

Teams have been averaging in the region of 185 runs, with the large boundaries making sixes less frequent but opening up space for boundaries and well-run twos.

Betting Markets to Watch


Best Gujarat Titans Batter 

Sai Sudharsan has scored three half-centuries and a 100 in his last five innings and looks a reliable candidate to top score for the Titans.

Score Over/Under Runs 

Heinrich Klaasen has scored 37*, 29, 65* & 69 in his last five knocks, while team-mate Abhishek Sharma has scored 135*, 57, 45 & 35 in his last five knocks. Both are great picks to put a decent score on the board, but I’m going with Klaasen as he has just one score below 29 this season.

Take Over/Under Wickets

Kagiso Rabada has taken 3/25, 1/44, 2/22 and 2/33 in his last four matches and is worth backing to take two or more wickets in this match.

Most Match Sixes

Abhishek Sharma is just four sixes behind Vaibhav Sooryavanshi in the sixes list, hitting 36 sixes off the 226 balls he has faced this season, so I’m backing him to hit the most sixes in the match.

Verdict

Heinrich Klaasen is my pick to score over 29 runs and I’m backing Abhishek Sharma to hit the most sixes.
