Ireland pacer Josh Little will miss defending champions Gujarat Titans' next few games as he has gone back home for national duty. The left-arm pacer has been named in Ireland's squad for the three-match One-Day International (ODI) series against Bangladesh, which starts on May 9. He flew back home after Gujarat's thumping nine-wicket win against Rajasthan Royals on Friday.
It will be a test of wits between the Pandya brothers -- Hardik and Krunal -- when defending champions Gujarat Titans clash with Lucknow Super Giants in the IPL in Ahmedabad on Sunday. While Hardik has captained the Indian team on multiple occasions and is leading GT for the second year, Krunal has led the Baroda team in domestic cricket and was elevated to the role of LSG captain in the absence of regular skipper KL Rahul. The two have become the first brothers to captain teams in the IPL. Under Hardik, GT are perched on top of the leader board with 14 points.
It was an easy outing for defending IPL champions Gujarat Titans against Rajasthan Royals in Jaipur on Friday. Afghanistan spinners Rashid Khan and rookie Noor Ahmad ran through the Rajasthan Royals as Gujarat Titans sealed an easy nine-wicket win. Khan and Ahmad took five wickets between them as Rajasthan were bowled out for just 118 in the 18th over of their innings after Rajasthan captain Sanju Samson won the toss and decided to bat first.
Gujarat Titans' captain Hardik Pandya on Friday admitted that he made judgement errors in a narrow loss while chasing against Delhi Capitals, after his side bounced back in the Indian Premier League to thrash Rajasthan Royals by nine wickets in Jaipur on Friday. Pandya struck an unbeaten 59 but GT could only make 125/6 chasing 131 against DC to suffer only their third loss in 10 matches by five runs.
Gujarat Titans made light work of a 119-run target set by Rajasthan Royals as the defending champions romped home with a commanding nine-wicket win in a one-sided IPL 2023 clash in Jaipur on Friday. After bundling Rajasthan Royals out for a mere 118 in 17.5 overs, a 71-run resolute opening stand between Shubman Gill (36) and Wriddhiman Saha (41 not out off 34 balls) set the platform for the huge victory, which was also accomplished with captain Hardik Pandya's brisk 15-ball 39 not out (3x4s, 3x6s). Gujarat Titans finished at 119 for one in 13.5 overs, winning with 37 balls to spare.
Abhinav Manohar's fielding effort was the talk among cricket fans as he pulled off a brilliant direct hit from the boundary to dismiss Adam Zampa during the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2023. During the match between Rajasthan Royals and Gujarat Titans, Zampa miscued a delivery from Mohit Sharma completely but it landed between two GT fielders. The batters were relieved and they kept running for the second run but Manohar had other plans. He picked up the ball quickly and his throw rattled the stumps to finish the RR innings for their lowest total in this year's competition.
After a defeat in the thrilling encounter against the Delhi Capitals, the Gujarat Titans take on Rajasthan Royals hoping to return to winning ways. Even the Royals are coming into this fixture on the back of a defeat, having lost their last match against Mumbai Indians. Though the Titans are placed top of the points table at present, they could see themselves getting toppled by the Royals if they suffer a defeat tonight. As far as the team composition goes, one of Shubman Gill and Mohit Sharma is likely to be the Impact Substitute.
Gujarat Titans will be eager to move on from their underwhelming batting display when they take on an inconsistent Rajasthan Royals, which will challenge the Hardik Pandya-led side for the top spot, in the Indian Premier League on Friday. Both teams are coming off losses and will look to get back to winning ways. Gujarat Titans are perched atop the points table with 12 points despite their five-run loss to wooden spooners Delhi Capitals, while the Royals are on the fourth spot and have 10 points.
