Sai Sudharsan (GT) – After smashing a brilliant century in the previous game against RCB, he will be the most crucial player for Gujarat Titans’ batting line-up.
Shubman Gill (GT): Leading the side as a captain will mean Gill will have to take the reins and play a big innings at the top order against RCB’s powerplay bowling.
Bowlers to Track
Rashid Khan (GT): His middle-over spells might prove crucial in cutting down the runs and taking important wickets against RCB. Mohammed Siraj (GT): He will be taking on his former side and the GT pacer is also the leading wicket-taker in the head-to-head between these two teams.
