Gujarat Titans and Chennai Super Kings will be up against each other as both teams look for a win in what is proving to be one of the most competitive seasons of the IPL. The Ravindra Jadeja-led CSK will be looking for their second win of the tournament and to continue on their winning streak.
Gujarat Titans have done exceedingly well in IPL 2022 so far under Hardik Pandya’s leadership. The franchise in their debut season have impressed all with performances with both bat and ball as they have won 4 games out of the five that they have played. However, this tournament can change very quickly and Gujarat can afford to relax even one bit.
Chennai Super Kings have struggled in the early part of the tournament but now it looks like they have found the formula of how to go about their game this season. Without the services of Deepak Chahar, the team has struggled in the powerplay overs and has not got wickets like they were doing last season. However, Robin Uthappa and Shivam Dube’s form with the bat has become an asset for the four-time champions and it will be important that the two do well with the bat.
Form Guide
Chennai Super Kings have won just one game from the five that they have played and it will be important for them to win more games if they want to make it to the play-offs of IPL 2022. Gujarat Titans under Hardik Pandya are enjoying their season as they have won 4 games from 5 matches played so far.
