Gujarat Titans vs Sunrisers Hyderabad Predictions: Sunrisers have not had the season they hoped for.

Playing in their thirteenth game of the season Gujarat Titans will welcome Sunrisers Hyderabad in the 62nd game of the season at Narendra Modi Stadium, Ahmedabad on 15th May. Sunrisers have not had the season they hoped for. Who will win this game?

Gujarat Titans

The Gujarat Titans have performed exceptionally well throughout the season and are leading the points table, but they were disappointed with their recent loss to the Mumbai Indians. Despite being virtually through to the playoffs, they are determined to secure a win in their upcoming match and finish in the top-2 for a better chance at reaching the Finals.

In the last game, the top and middle order of the Titans struggled and were 8 wickets down with just 103 runs on the board. However, Rashid Khan's late attack helped them come close to the target of 219. Shubhman Gill and Wriddhiman Saha are expected to provide a strong start, while Vijay Shankar has also shown promising performances. The middle-order has been inconsistent, with Hardik Pandya, David Miller, and Rahul Tewatia struggling to perform.

The Titans' bowling attack is well-balanced with Rashid Khan and Mohammed Shami in good form. Khan is leading the race for the Purple Cap with 23 wickets, and Mohit Sharma and Noor Ahmad have been economical. Despite their recent loss, the Titans are expected to bounce back in their next match.

Sunrisers Hyderabad

Aiden Markram must be disappointed with his team's performance this season, despite having a strong squad on paper. They have won only four out of eleven matches so far, and are second from the bottom of the table. With only three games left, their chances of making it to the playoffs are slim.

Harry Brook's IPL debut has not lived up to the hype, apart from a century against KKR, he has failed to perform consistently. Abhishek Sharma and Anmolpreet Singh are expected to open the innings for the team, with Sharma having played a couple of decent innings so far, while Singh has not had many opportunities to showcase his talent. Aiden Markram, who was in good form before the season, has struggled to continue his form in the IPL, while Mayank Agarwal has also lacked conviction.

Heinrich Klaasen has been the only consistent performer for the team and has lived up to his reputation of being a fast scorer. Abdul Samad has played a couple of useful cameos. In terms of bowling, Mayank Markande has been the most impressive and is the leading wicket-taker for the team.

Bhuvaneshwar Kumar has regained some form in the last few games, and he will be supported by Fazalhaq Farooqi and T Natarajan in the seam department.

Expert betting tips

The Ahmedabad-based Narendra Modi Stadium's pitch is relatively dry and offers a good batting surface, as evidenced by high-scoring games previously played there. Although bowlers, both seamers and spinners, can take wickets if they bowl a good line and length, the pitch does tend to slow down as the game progresses, with some turn possibly coming into play. The temperature will be warm, ranging from 33 to 38 degrees Celsius. We expect Gujarat to bounce back after their defeat against Mumbai.
