Match Prediction
SRH will be playing at home, where they have posted the highest IPL total of 286/6. However, Gujarat Titans have a better recent record in head-to-head matches and a more settled bowling lineup.
- If GT bats first: They may score around 180-190, and it will be up to SRH’s explosive lineup to chase it down.
- If SRH bats first: Expect fireworks from Travis Head and Klaasen. Anything above 175 will be competitive.
Prediction: Gujarat Titans might have the edge due to depth in bowling and top-order consistency, but SRH at home is a tough opponent. Expect a close game with GT slightly ahead.
