Gujarat and Delhi are outside the top four spots as they grapple with inconsistency. On that count, the Titans are marginally better than Delhi. Additionally, playing at home gives them a slight advantage. I am backing Gujarat to win.

Gujarat have won two of their last 3 matches at this venue (IPL)
Delhi have lost 4 of their last 6 matches (IPL)
Delhi have lost 2 of their 3 matches against Gujarat (IPL)
Shubman Gill has scored more than 40 in 3 of his last 6 matches against Delhi (IPL)

Head to Head

Gujarat has played Delhi in three matches so far, winning two and losing once. The only defeat came in the most recent fixture between these sides last year at this venue. Delhi’s target of 130 proved to be too hot for Gujarat, who fell short by five runs.

Gujarat Titans Form

The Gujarat Titans are fifth in the standings with six points from six matches, winning and losing three matches each. With four teams at least on eight points, the Titans need to get their act together in their quest for playoff qualification.

Shubman Gill continues to lead their batting charge with 255 runs at a strike rate of 151.78. He’s closely followed by Sai Sudharsan, but otherwise, their other batters are yet to be consistent.

Bowling hasn’t been up to par, with only Mohit Sharma (eight wickets) and Umesh Yadav (seven) regularly taking wickets.

David Miller missed the last game due to a niggle but should be back in the side for Gujarat.

Delhi Capitals Form

The Delhi Capitals have four points from six matches, with two wins and four defeats. Only Royal Challengers Bengaluru have fewer points than Delhi.

They did win by six wickets against Lucknow in their last match, as the new entrant Fraser-McGurk exploded in fine style. Otherwise, only Rishabh Pant (194 runs) has been a constant presence among the run getters.

With the ball, it’s Khaleel Ahmed (nine wickets) and Kuldeep Yadav (six) leading the charge, with the latter playing just three matches so far.

Delhi Capitals Team News

Mukesh and Kuldeep played the last match after recovering from injuries. Unless there’s any more injury-related worry, the side looks set to be repeated.
