GT vs CSK (Match 29 of IPL 2022): Dream 11 Team, Predictions, Probable Playing XIs, Pitch Report, Fantasy Tips and Weather Forecast

The iconic 15th season of the Indian Premier League is in progress, and the journey has arrived at Maharashtra Cricket Association, Pune, for the game between Gujarat & Chennai. The Hardik Pandya leading GT has regained its lost momentum in the last match against Rajasthan. While the curious case of Chennai Super Kings is taking unexpecting turns in the journey. They have won the last game dominantly against RCB after consecutively facing 4 defeats. The likes of Robin Uthappa & Shivam Dube have started to settle down things in the CSKs batting order. While for RCB, the most important key is the inclusion of Josh Hazlewood in the bowling unit.

Both the teams have faced each other in 29 matches in the history of IPL, in which CSK stayed at the top with 20 victories while RCB has only barged on in 9 games. The venue of MCA usually dishes a good batting surface for t20 games. This automatically increases the scoring chances for the in-form batters like Robin Uthappa, Faf Du Plessis, and Shivam Dube. Also, the influence of dew makes things worse for the side which is bowling second in the game. Thus here are a few quick predictions & probabilities for the game between Gujarat & Chennai.
