Analysis:
Kolkata has performed well so far with quality players on the roster. But the two-time champions have struggled in their previous two matches against Delhi and Rajasthan. Their batting department is bolstered by Shreyas Iyer and Nitish Rana with all-rounders like Andre Russell and Venkatesh Iyer. In the bowling department, the duo of Pat Cummins and Sunil Narine has also performed well.
Gujarat has been the top team in the tournament so far. Their batting is led by Shubman Gill and David Miller who have put up big runs while having a bowling attack led by Rashid Khan and Mohammed Shami. Their all-rounder captain Hardik Pandya is the glue of the team with quality performances across all departments.
