Winning Predictions
Pandya and Shubman have scored two half-centuries.
In the batting department, Pandya and opener Shubman Gill has scored two half-centuries with runs but Matthew Wades form remains a matter of concern. Abhinav Manohar and South Africas David Miller did well in the last match. Now the team will expect him to take more responsibility.
Rahul Teotia appeared in the role of a finisher
Rahul Tewatia has given a dazzling performance in his role as the finisher. His sixes gave Gujarat Titans victory over Lucknow Super Giants. Time is running out for CSKs young opener Ruturaj Gaikwad, who has been in poor form this season. There has also been a lack of consistency in the top order in Moeen Ali. The same is happening with Ambati Rayudu who has failed to capitalize on his debut.
All-rounder Shivam Dube has been the star of the team
All-rounder Shivam Dube has been the star of the team, scoring an unbeaten 95 at number four last night. Opener Robin Uthappa also tuned the Royal Challengers Bangalore bowlers during his 88-run knock. However, Jadeja and former captain Mahendra Singh Dhoni will have to perform better in the middle order.
