According to the IPL 2022 schedule, the Gujarat Titans (GT) will take on the Chennai Super Kings (CSK) in Match 29 of the 2022 Indian Premier League (IPL) at the Maharashtra Cricket Association (MCA) Stadium in Pune on Sunday. This will be the second match of the double-header.
Gujarat are on top of the IPL 2022 points table, having won four of their five matches. After four straight losses, Chennai got their first points on the board by defeating the Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) by 23 runs in their last game.
In their previous match, GT came up with a sublime all-round effort to get the better of the Rajasthan Royals (RR) by 37 runs. Hardik Pandya led from the front with an unbeaten 87 off 52 as Gujarat put up 192 for 4 on the board. Lockie Ferguson and debutant Yash Dayal then claimed three wickets each to halt RR’s chase much before the finish line.
Chennai would have gained some confidence following their win over RCB. Shivam Dube (95*) and Robin Uthappa (88) were primarily responsible for the win. The form of Ruturaj Gaikwad and their weak bowling attack remains a concern.

Today's IPL toss result
The Gujarat Titans have won the toss and have opted to bowl first. Rashid Khan is leading the IPL team in Hardik Pandya’s absence. Giving an update on the captain, the stand-in skipper said:
"Bit of stiffness in the groin area for Hardik, so as a team we didn't want to take a chance. He will rest and hopefully be back for the next game.”
Gujarat have made two changes - Wriddhiman Saha and Alzzari Joseph come in for Matthew Wade and Hardik. Chennai are going in with an unchanged squad.
