Pitch Report
Analysis
The Gujarat Titans have fared decently in the 2024 season with a few resounding wins and hard-fought defeats. The GT batting has emerged as a major issue with captain Shubman Gill and Sai Sudharshan scoring runs at a consistent clip. On the bowling front, Gujarat has performed well with Rashid Khan rediscovering his form while Noor Ahmad and Mohit Sharma have produced a few match-winning performances.
On the other hand, the Delhi Capitals have had a dismal start to their 2024 campaign but their recent win against the Lucknow Super Giants has produced many positives. The batting saw major improvement with Jake Fraser-McGurk’s sublime hitting in the middle overs with Rishabh Pant’s run-scoring form. The bowling also received a vital boost with the return of wrist spinner Kuldeep Yadav, who has been the linchpin of the DC attack.
