Table toppers Gujarat Titans will lock horns with Kolkata Knight Riders on April 23 at DY Patil Stadium in Mumbai. Shreyas Iyer-led Kolkata Knight Riders were on the wrong end of a thriller against Rajasthan Royals last Monday and are currently in woeful form, having lost each of their last three fixtures.
On the other side, Gujarat Titans have surprised everyone by winning five out of six games and are currently placed at the top of the table.
Promoting all-rounder Sunil Narine to open the innings didn't work for the Knights as the West Indian was run-out without facing a single ball. The form of Venkatesh Iyer and Sheldon Jackson has been a major concern for the side as both the batters haven't performed up to their reputation.
Senior pro-Andre Russell needs to buckle up, too, as the team must be expecting a match-winning performance from him. Aaron Finch (58 off 28) and Shreyas Iyer (85 off 51) did pretty well in the last game, and they will have a huge responsibility in the upcoming clash.
Meanwhile, Gujarat Titans sit proudly top of the IPL table but considering the quality of the competition, they can't be relaxed. Captain Hardik Pandya missed out game against Chennai Super Kings, and if he has not recovered from injury in time to play a part here, Rashid Khan will step into the breach as captain once again.
Blistering knocks from Rashid Khan and David Miller helped the side clinch victory in a thriller. The upcoming clash between Gujarat Titans and Kolkata Knight Riders will surely be a nail-biting thriller.
