IPL 2023 weather update: Ahmedabad weather report on May 7 for today's GT vs LSG clash

An uninterrupted contest beckons fans when the Gujarat Titans (GT) square off against the Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad on Sunday, May 7.

Both teams have had a good run in IPL 2023 so far and will hope to continue their winning run to strengthen their bid for a top-four finish. While GT are currently placed at the top of the table with 14 points from 10 matches, the Super Giants are third with 11 points.

The defending champions will be brimming with confidence after a thumping win against last year's runners-up Rajasthan Royals (RR). After bowling them out for 118, GT lost only one wicket to chase down the target. Wriddhiman Saha (41*) and Hardik Pandya (39*) remained unbeaten to take the team home.

LSG, on the other hand, lost their last completed match against the Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB). Their game against the Chennai Super Kings (CSK) was abandoned due to inclement weather.

Heading into the contest, Lucknow will be tempted to bring in Quinton de Kock in place of Kyle Mayers, who has struggled to get going in the last couple of games. They will also miss the service of their regular skipper KL Rahul, who has been ruled out of IPL 2023 with an injury. All-rounder Krunal Pandya will lead the side in Rahul's absence.
