For Gujarat Titans, a lot will be riding on its skipper Hardik Pandya. The run-getter batsman has been a revelation in this season, leading from the front and finishing the games in style. Death bowling of Rashid Khan, aided by all-rounders like Rahul Tewatia put the team strong contention.

The Titans have suffered 3 defeats in last 5 matches while Royals faced 4 losses in past 5 matches. But, the latter boasts of key players like Jos Butler and Yuzvendra Chahal who have almost clocked the Orange & Purple Cap. Their batting has suffered lately but one good knock may put them ahead in the 20:20 battle.
