GT vs SRH, DY Patil Stadium. Gujarat Titans are having a good first season in the IPL 2022. On the other hand, Sunrisers Hyderabad is struggling with their batting. GT is looking stronger on paper against the SRH.

GT hasn't lost any match in the IPL 2022 yet. Shubman Gill is in fabulous touch after going for a duck in the first match. He has shown that he can get some quick runs too. Hardik Pandya is enjoying his new role as a number 4 batter. The good thing is that he is now regularly bowling 140 kmph and that too is in powerplays! Rashid Khan will be playing against his former team SRH. He will be eager to get skipper Williamson's wicket. We saw Shreya Iyer hitting a half-century against DC, Chahal taking wickets against RCB, and now it is time for Rashid Khan to shine. Matthew Wade hasn't been impressive so far, Gurbaz may come in as an opener to replace him. Gurbaz has a reputation as a hard-hitting batter in the limited-overs cricket.

SRH won their last game against CSK, but CSK is already having a bad IPL season this year. GT is no CSK. GT has Rashid, Shami, and Ferguson as the frontline bowling unit. SRH's top order should consider rearranging the batting order otherwise Shami and Rashid can demolish the top order within a powerplay. Abhishek scored a match-winning fifty in the last game but he is not an opener. Rahu Tripathi and Aiden Markram are openers SRH needs. Williamson can bat at 3, Pooran at 4, and Sharma at 5. Young bowling unit of SRH haven't bowled much against the GT batters in IPL or T20s. Which is a worrying sign for SRH.
