Gujarat Titans vs Delhi Capitals
Gujarat Titans (Match Odds – 1.69):
Preview:
Hardik Pandya’s team is living up to their title as defending champions. They are coming off a comfortable 7-wicket win over the Kolkata Knight Riders. With this victory, the team now has 12 points and is atop the points table. They will look to maintain their dominance and capitalize on the Delhi Capitals’ lack of form.
Wriddhiman Saha and Shubman Gill are off to fast starts, and the duo will try to exploit Delhi’s rusty bowling attack. Hardik Pandya, Sai Sudarshan, and David Miller have all batted in the middle order, giving the team confidence. They have batting depth, and they will look for runs from Rahul Tewatia, Vijay Shankar, and Rashid Khan.
The team has done well in the bowling department, and they will need a good spell from Mohammad Shami and Hardik Pandya with the new ball. Rashid Khan and Joshua Little will be expected to deliver in the middle overs. Mohit Sharma and Noor Ahmed will compete for supporting roles.
Full Squad:
Wriddhiman Saha(w), Abhinav Manohar, Hardik Pandya(c), Vijay Shankar, David Miller, Rahul Tewatia, Rashid Khan, Noor Ahmad, Mohammed Shami, Mohit Sharma, Joshua Little, Shubman Gill, Srikar Bharat, Ravisrinivasan Sai Kishore, Shivam Mavi, Jayant Yadav, Pradeep Sangwan, Matthew Wade, Dasun Shanaka, Odean Smith, Alzarri Joseph, Darshan Nalkande, Urvil Patel, Sai Sudharsan, Yash Dayal

Players to watch out for:
Shubman Gill
In his last two innings, the right-handed opener struck eight fours. He has now scored 333 runs in the 2023 IPL and is overjoyed.
Rashid Khan
The leg-spinner has been in great form this tournament, but he gave up 54 runs without taking a wicket in the last game. He’ll want to make a big impact in this game.
Mohammed Shami
The right-arm pace bowler from India has been very consistent throughout the tournament. In the previous match, he dismissed Narayan Jagadeesan, Shardul Thakur, and Andre Russell.
Possible Playing XI:
Hardik Pandya (c), Wriddhiman Saha (wk), Sai Sudarshan, Vijay Shankar, David Miller, Rahul Tewatia, Rashid Khan, Noor Ahmad, Mohammed Shami, Mohit Sharma, Joshua Little, Shubman Gill (Impact Player)
Delhi Capitals (Match Odds – 2.20):
Preview:
David Warner and his team have only two wins in eight games. Their last-game 9-run loss to the Sunrisers Hyderabad has all but sealed their fate, and they will not advance to the next round. Key players have struggled, and the team needs to make a strong comeback in this game. Warner wants his team to perform well in this game.
Warner and Phillip Salt, both of whom can score quick runs, will need to get the team off to a good start. Mitchell Marsh must bat in the middle order and add runs alongside Manish Pandey and Priyam Garg. They are lacking in the lower middle order and require runs from Sarfaraz Khan, Axar Patel, and Ripal Patel.
The bowling attack will be put to the test in this game, and they will need strong starts from Instant Sharma and Anrich Nortje. Mukesh Kumar and Marsh must limit their scoring rate because the Titans’ batsmen will come after them hard. Kuldeep Yadav and Axar Patel must take advantage of the circumstances to put pressure on their opponents.
Full Squad:
David Warner(c), Philip Salt(w), Mitchell Marsh, Manish Pandey, Priyam Garg, Axar Patel, Ripal Patel, Kuldeep Yadav, Anrich Nortje, Ishant Sharma, Mukesh Kumar, Sarfaraz Khan, Lalit Yadav, Abishek Porel, Khaleel Ahmed, Praveen Dubey, Rilee Rossouw, Lungi Ngidi, Mustafizur Rahman, Rovman Powell, Prithvi Shaw, Chetan Sakariya, Aman Hakim Khan, Yash Dhull, Vicky Ostwal

Gujarat Titans vs Delhi Capitals Toss Prediction
The wicket has been excellent at this venue, and we have seen teams post massive totals. The track hasn’t changed much in the second inning, and putting up a total is difficult. As a result, the winning side would have little hesitation in bowling first on this surface.
Gujarat Titans vs Delhi Capitals Pitch Report
With its flat surface and lightning-fast outfield, Ahmedabad’s Narendra Modi Stadium has been a batsman’s paradise. On this surface, batsmen can hit through the line with ease. Fast bowlers would receive some help in the early stages of the game. Spinners have done well here because the ball turns sharply.

May 2nd would be another hot and humid day in Ahmedabad, and we anticipate another belter of a track with little for the bowlers. The ball would strike the bat hard, providing several opportunities for the batsmen to score runs. To feel comfortable, the team batting first would need 190 runs.
Gujarat Titans vs Delhi Capitals Prediction
The Delhi Capitals’ woes in the tournament appear to have no end in sight. They’ve struggled with both the bat and the ball, and the team’s confidence is low. Gujarat Titans, on the other hand, have won three straight games. Their starting lineup is playing well, and the Titans have the advantage in this game because they are playing at home.
