The Indian Premier League 2022 Gujarat Titans vs Sunrisers Hyderabad will be played at the Wankhede stadium. Gujarat, led by Hardik Pandya, has only lost one match in the league and is currently leading the table with 12 points. Hyderabad are second in the standing with 10 points.
Gujarat Titans, in their last outing, defeated Kolkata Knight Riders by eight runs. Meanwhile, Sunrisers Hyderabad produced a stellar show by dismantling the Royal Challenger Bangalore’s batting line for 68. Kane Williamson-led side chased the target with 72 balls to spare. They scored 72/1.
The Indian Premier League 2022 Gujarat Titans vs Sunrisers Hyderabad will commence at 7:30 pm IST. Fans are eagerly waiting to witness the high-octane battle between two in-form sides this season.
David Miller and Abhinav Manohar have been in middling form, but the Titans would want to see Shubman Gill strike the form that fetched him 84 against Delhi Capitals and 96 against Punjab Kings, especially with Wriddhiman Saha struggling to make an impression. That the trio – Gill, Pandya and Miller – is the mainstay of Titans’ batting will not be lost on Sunrisers’ skipper Kane Williamson, who is low on runs but has been spot on in seizing opportunities.
Gujarat Titans are currently placed at the eighth position on the points table of this season of the Tata IPL, whereas Sunrisers Hyderabad is currently placed at the second-last position on the points table.

Pitch Report
Wankhede Stadium has been a high scoring wicket in the last few games, and the short boundaries have allowed the batters to take on the bowlers tactically. The captain who wins the toss is likely to stick with the bowling option first, as the dew factor will be one of the headaches for the skipper.
