Gujarat Titans (GT) will face the Delhi Capitals (DC) in the 44th match of the 16th edition of the Indian Premier League (IPL). The game will be played at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad on Tuesday (May 2).
Gujarat Titans are currently well on track for a successful title defense. The team currently sits comfortably on top of the points table with 12 points, having won six of their eight games so far. This includes a seven-wicket win against the Knight Riders in the previous fixture.
In that match, Mohammed Shami picked up three crucial wickets to restrict the Knight Riders to 179/7 in 20 overs. Joshua Little and Noor Ahmed too chipped in with a couple of wickets. In response, Vijay Shankar played a brilliant knock of 51 runs off just 24 balls with a strike rate of 212.5 to his team get over the line, with 13 balls to spare.
After winning two consecutive games, the Delhi Capitals failed to carry forward their winning momentum. They suffered a close nine-run loss against the Sunrisers Hyderabad at home. They are still at the bottom of the points table with four points, winning two of their eight games.
The bowlers failed to keep a check on the scoring rate as they conceded a massive total of 197/6 in 20 overs. Mitchell Marsh contributed with both bat and the ball, as the all-rounder picked up four wickets and played a quick-fire knock of 63 runs off just 39 balls. However, that was not enough as the home team fell short of the target by nine runs.
