Gujarat Titans and Sunrisers Hyderabad are meeting up for the second time in the league phase at Wankhede stadium, Mumbai. Hyderabad crushed GT in a single-handed victory by 8 wickets in their first face-off. The vintage SRH is back with disciplined bowling and conservative batting this season. The cherry-composed pace attack is the key to success for SRH so far. The likes of Umran Malik, Marco Jansen & T Natrajan, have spelled their best showdown for the side.
Also, the success scenario is pretty similar for Gujarat Titans as SRH. The vicious triad of Mohammad Shami, Lockie Ferguson, and Alzarri Joseph provides world-class bowling services to the side in this edition. The inclusion of David Miller and Hardik Pandya in the middle make the nucleus of their batting. Comparing both sides, SRH takes the leading edge as their batting is more consistent and balanced than Gujarat. But nothing can be stated when it comes to the clash of the two finest bowling departments of the season. An intrinsic battle of two skippers, Hardik Pandya and Kane Williamson, would also be a delightful thing to watch out for. Thus below are a few predictions for the game between SRH & GT.
GT vs SRH: Match Predictions
Though the venue of Wankhede stadium is renowned for high-scoring encounters, this game wouldn’t be in that category. The cause is the top-notch bowling unit of both sides, which may not allow the batters to score freely. The bowlers like T Natrajan, Lockie Ferguson, Bhuvaneshwar Kumar, and Rashid Khan may grab the most wickets. In this encounter, the dew will act as a game-deciding factor, so the toss becomes paramount. Thus, the side winning would surely opt to field first against the opponent.

GT vs SRH: Pitch Report
Most of the rank-turner surfaces are turning and pace-less in nature. But, Wankhede is one of the few venues which offers twirling but with extra bounce, which caters equal opportunity for both batters/bowlers to catch up on the game. Also, its high-scoring gene is the rapid outfield and very short straight fences. The venue’s atmosphere usually spoils the party of the side which is bowling second, as the dew makes its appearance after the mid-half.
