GT are currently on top of the IPL points table with 6 wins in 8 matches, last one being against KKR in Kolkata. On the other side, Delhi Capitals are currently bottom of the IPL points table with 2 wins in 8 matches, losing their previous match at home to SRH.

Team Analysis

Gujarat Titans

The batting lineup of Gujarat Titans is scoring runs for fun in the 2023 edition of the Indian Premier League.

Wriddhiman Saha (wk), Shubman Gill, Hardik Pandya (c), Vijay Shankar, David Miller, Abhinav Manohar, Rahul Tewatia, Rashid Khan, Noor Ahmad, Mohammed Shami, Mohit Sharma (Potential Impact Player - Joshua Little for Vijay Shankar)

Delhi Capitals

On the batting side of things, Delhi Capitals have finally put up a good total on the board with the likes of captain David Warner, Phil Salt, and Mitchell Marsh amongst the runs. But they still need their Indians players to step up with the bat, namely Prithvi Shaw, Manish Pandey, and Sarfaraz Khan, whenever they do get the opportunity to play. The bowling lineup has been a positive for the Capitals in recent matches, especially their spinners Kuldeep Yadav and Axar Patel, but their fast bowlers have to perform better day in and day out.
