The defending champions Chennai Super Kings (CSK) will be up against the new entrants Gujarat Titans (GT) in their next group stage match of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2022. Both teams are coming to the contest after having contrasting results. While CSK lost their previous match against the five-time champions Mumbai Indians, GT thrashed the Lucknow Super Giants by 62 runs.

Coming to the contest, both teams will have nothing to lose as GT has already qualified for the play-offs after securing nine victories in 12 matches. The Yellow Army, on the other hand, has lost 8 out of 12 matches and is out of the competition. However, both teams will want to win the encounter for their fans.

Probable Top Performers

The probable best batter of the Match:

Ruturaj Gaikwad:

CSK opening batter Ruturaj Gaikwad’s form has been hot and cold in this edition so far. The right-handed batter has played some excellent knocks in the tournament but has not been able to score runs consistently. Gaikwad only managed to score seven runs in his previous match, but he will look to bounce back in the next match.

Probable best bowler of the Match:

Rashid Khan:

GT star spinner Rashid Khan was at his absolute best as he scalped four wickets in his previous match against LSG. The 23-year-old will want to emulate his performance in the next match against the defending champions CSK. The right-arm spinner will want to take the prized scalp of MS Dhoni as well.
