Info: 

• Sai Sudharsan top scored with 65 runs from 39 balls against Delhi Capitals on Wednesday and the young left-hander is well worth backing as Gujarat Titans’ highest run scorer against RCB. Sandeep Warrier stood out with the ball in their last game with 3/15 and he is our pick for Gujarat Titans’ top wicket taker in this clash.
• There was another half-century for Virat Kohli in Thursday’s victory against Sunrisers Hyderabad and the opener is our tip for RCB’s highest run scorer against Gujarat Titans. Spinner Karn Sharma took 2/29 in the last game and he is our pick for RCB’s top wicket taker on Sunday.
• With only one score under 30 so far in the tournament, we recommend selecting Sai Sudharsan to hit over 31.5 runs in this game.

Toss Predictions: 

With 17 of the 31 IPL fixtures at the Narendra Modi Stadium won by the team fielding first, we predict that both captains will walk out to the toss planning to bowl first if they win the toss.

Weather & Pitch Report: 

Weather: ⛅

The weather forecast is for clear skies throughout this contest on Sunday afternoon with the temperature likely to be over 35 degrees from start to finish. Low humidity levels and no rain are expected.

Pitch Report:

Although we saw only 181 runs and 14 wickets fall on this pitch at the Narendra Modi Stadium in the last game, it is not a bad batting surface. A par score is at least 180 and there is not a huge amount of spin for the slow bowlers to work with so they may be used as a defensive option on this pitch.

Team NEWS: 

GT Team News: 

Captain Shubman Gill announced no changes at the toss ahead of their narrow defeat against Delhi Capitals and it would be no surprise to see the same XI for this game. Mohit Sharma will be under scrutiny after conceding 73 runs in the last match but has been good at this venue. 

RCB Team News: 

The experienced wicket-keeper and in-form batter Dinesh Karthik had to leave the field with four overs remaining of the win against Sunrisers Hyderabad with a hand injury and it looks like being a race against time to see if he will be fit enough to play in this match.

Gujarat Titans to beat Royal Challengers Bengaluru.

Gujarat Titans a 50% chance to win this match 

Royal Challengers Bengaluru a 50% chance to win this match 

Key Players: 

Gujarat Titans 

Sai Sudharsan 

the 22 year old has been very consistent in IPL 2024 although his half-century in the last game was the first time he had passed fifty. He will be looking forward to taking on the RCB bowlers.

Shubman Gill 

the skipper has already scored over 300 runs in this year’s IPL but he will need a run of very high scores if he is to top his 890 runs from the 2023 tournament.

Rashid Khan 

the bowling all-rounder struggled with his length in the last game but once again produced a brilliant batting cameo at the end of the innings with 21 not out from 11 balls.

Sandeep Warrier 

the experienced right-arm medium pacer got the key wickets of Jake Fraser-McGurk and Prithvi Shaw in the same over before returning to get Shai Hope against Delhi Capitals.

GT Possible Impact Player Substitutes 

Sharath BR, Manav Suthar, Darshan Nalkande, Vijay Shankar, Sandeep Warrier 

Sandeep Warrier put in an excellent bowling performance during the fielding innings against Delhi Capitals so we expect him to be used in the same role in this game with Sai Sudharsan the likely player to only be used in the batting innings.

Royal Challengers Bengaluru 

Virat Kohli 

there are still question marks over his strike-rate but the opener is the leading run scorer in the tournament with an average of 61.43 and a strike-rate of 145.76.

Rajat Patidar 

the 30 year old right-hander took the Player of the Match Award after a brilliant 50 runs from 20 balls which shifted the momentum against Sunrisers.

Cameron Green 

the Australian all-rounder produced a brilliant display in the last game with 37 not out from 20 balls and then took 2/12 from his two overs with the ball.

Karn Sharma 

the spinner took wickets five and six in Thursday’s victory and ensured that RCB were able to finally get up to four points in the table.

RCB Possible Impact Player Substitutes 

Suyash Prabhudessai, Anuj Rawat, Himanshu Sharma, Vijaykumar Vyshak, Swapnil Singh 

Slow left-arm orthodox bowler Swapnil Singh came into the team and performed well against Sunrisers Hyderabad. Rajat Patidar was substituted out and is very likely to be used in the batting innings once more.

GT Team Form: 

Gujarat Titans come into this match after two wins and two defeats from their last four games.
