Narendra Modi Stadium Pitch Report

Take a look at the last two games played at the Narendra Modi Stadium couldn’t have produced a more stark contrast between the behavior of the pitch. Gujarat Titans were bundled out for a meagre 89-run against Delhi Capitals, who chased the target in just 8.5 overs. GT batted first again in the last game at this venue, and posted a formidable score of 200 runs in 20 overs. RCB came out with blazing guns and made the mockery of target, winning in 16 overs.

So anything can happen on this ground which offers balanced surface. Bowlers enjoy the true bounce, and this is what most batters like. They can play their shot without thinking about the low bounce and uneven carry.

GT vs CSK Head-To-Head Record

This will be the 7th meeting between the champions of the last two editions of IPL with both teams winning 3 times against each other in those six head-to-head encounters. But it’s Chennai Super Kings who have enjoyed this fixture more than GT. As the five-time champions won the last three games against the 2022 IPL winners, including a 63-run win in the reverse fixture earlier in the season, as well the two wins in the IPL 2023 final and the preceding playoff match.

GT vs CSK Match Prediction: Best Batters And Bowlers

CSK Probable highest scorer: Ruturaj Gaikwad | Shivam Dube | Daryl Mitchell

Shivam Dube got out on 1st ball in the last two games

Ruturaj Gaikwad has scored the most runs for Chennai Super Kings in IPL 2024. He has hit 541 runs off 368 deliveries, including 4 half centuries and one century. He is behind only Virat Kohli in the Orange Cap list. Gaikwad should be in your Fantasy Cricket teams.

Shivam Dube is second on CSK’s scoring charts having made 350 runs in 11 innings leading up to this match. It’s his exploits in IPL 2024 that won him a spot in India’s T20 World Cup 2024 squad. He is definitely one of the most lethal batters in the world. Dube can be considered either as a captain or vice-captain in GT vs CSK Dream11 Fantasy cricket teams.

Much of CSK‘s batting also depend on Daryl Mitchell. The New Zealander is the glue that keeps the middle-order together. In the last match against Punjab Kings, Mitchell scored 30 runs off 19 balls. He can make the difference in any match.

GT Probable Highest Scorer: Shubman Gill | Sai Sudarshan

Sai Sudarshan is in red-hot form

Sai Sudarshan has been in terrific form all season. The young Indian batter is the leading scorer for GT in IPL 2024, having scored 424 runs in 11 previous innings. The 22-year-old has also scored two half centuries, with the high-score being 84 not-out. From GT’s Playing XI, Sudarshan is a player is worth having in GT vs CSK Dream11 Today IPL Teams.

Despite Shubman Gill not touching the lofty heights of last season, he remains someone who can erupt with something big in any game. Gill has scored 322 runs in 234 deliveries, including two scores of half centuries. Consider him in a few Dream11 Fantasy Grand League or small league teams.

GT Probable Best Bowler: Rashid Khan | Noor Ahmad | Joshua Little

Noor Ahmad is in good form

Even in one of the worst seasons in IPL, Rashid Khan has given away runs at 8.29 per over, which is still good considering how easily the batters have scored runs this season. The 25-year-old has also picked up 8 wickets this season. His run-scoring ability should also be considered when selecting players in Fantasy cricket today’s IPL Teams.

Noor Ahmad produced good numbers in the last match, picking up two wickets for 23 runs. He is in decent bowling form. Another bowler worth considering from GT’s Playing XI is Joshua Little. The Irish pacer picked up four wickets in the last match. He is a proven wicket-taker.

CSK Probable Best Bowler: Ravindra Jadeja | Mitchell Santner

Jadeja picked up 3 wickets and scored 43 runs in last match

From the all-round section, Ravindra Jadeja should be in your Dream11 Fantasy Cricket teams. He is just too good to overlook. He has been scoring runs and is back to taking wickets as well. In the last match, Jadeja scored 43 runs off 26 balls and picked 3 wickets as well. That was one of the best all-round performance in IPL 2024.

Although CSK would surely be missing the services of both Mustafizur Rahman and Matheesha Pathirana, it’s no doubt that the reigning champions also have a perfect replacement in the shape of Mitchell Santner. The New Zealander all-rounder is a premium white-ball bowler, while his batting is no fluke. He should be considered in both grand league and small league teams.

Who Will Win Today’s IPL Match Between GT vs CSK

Both teams are accustomed to winning. GT clinched the title in their inaugural season in 2022, while CSK is the joint-most successful team in IPL history, having won the title five times.

However, this season, GT looks like a completely different team, partly due to the departure of Hardik Pandya. Additionally, the rough form of some high-profile players like Rashid Khan and captain Shubman Gill has contributed to this change. Gill, in particular, has failed to replicate the exceptional form he showed in IPL 2023 when he amassed a staggering 890 runs.

The form of players and the position on the table are the factors deciding the pre-match odds. Chennai are better in every regard. In our GT vs CSK Match Prediction odds, the reigning champions are favorite to win this game.

Chances Of A Win
GT: 43%
CSK: 57%
