The defending champions Gujarat Titans will lock horns against the Sunrisers Hyderabad in the 62nd match of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2023. The Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad will be hosting this encounter.

Gujarat Titans have played 12 games so far. They have won eight of those and have 16 points under their belt. They are on the brink of qualification to the playoffs and a win will guarantee them a spot in the first qualifier. They are coming off a loss against Mumbai Indians in their last game.

Rashid Khan picked up four wickets but the other bowlers went on a journey as Mumbai Indians finished their innings on 218/5. In reply, Rashid smashed 79* off just 32 balls but it wasn’t enough as they fell short of the target by 27 runs. The Titans will be hoping that they get back to winning ways in their next fixture against the Sunrisers at home.

Sunrisers Hyderabad are languishing in the bottom half of the points table. Nothing is going right for them at the moment. They have managed to win only four games out of 11. They suffered their seventh loss of the competition in their last game against the Lucknow Super Giants.

Contributions from their batters helped SRH post 182 on the board for the loss of six wickets. What followed was a disappointing effort from their bowlers as they failed to defend the total. They lost the game in the last over. The Sunrisers need to win their remaining fixtures to have any chance of qualifying for the playoffs.
