The Titans are top of the table, while the Super Giants are only two points below them. While the Titans have been improving every game, what stands out is their impressive bowling performance. That could help them to restrict their opponents in the six count. I am backing the Gujarat Titans to score the most 6s in this match.
- Gujarat scored the most 6s in their last 3 matches.
- Lucknow conceded 10.41 sixes per match this season, with only Hyderabad conceding more.
- Lucknow conceded the most 6s in 2 of their last 4 matches.
Head to Head
There have been five matches between the Super Giants and the Titans in the IPL so far. Of these, four were won by the Titans.
That said, Lucknow won their last match against Gujarat when the teams met last season in Lucknow by 33 runs.
Lucknow Super Giants Form
After Thursday, Lucknow are fifth in the standings with six points from five matches. They won their last two matches, by 12 runs against Mumbai and by four runs against Kolkata.
Lucknow’s impressive performances have been led by Nicholas Pooran (288 runs, SR 225) and Mitchell Marsh (265 runs, SR 180.27). It’s their six-hitting ability that’s leading their charge as the duo hit 39 sixes in the season so far.
The bowling duties have been led by Shardul Thakur (nine wickets, ER 10.82), but it’s the spinner Digvesh Rathi who’s keeping things under control with his economy rate of 7.75 runs per over.

Lucknow seems to have a settled squad, unless they want to replace Abdul Samad with Shahbaz Ahmed. Mayank Yadav’s fitness still remains under the NCA scanner.
Gujarat Titans Form
Gujarat Titans are top of the standings with eight points from five matches after Thursday’s matches. They have won their last four matches in a row after starting the season with a defeat.
The Titans thrashed Rajasthan Royals by 58 runs in their last match, where Sai Sudharsan (82) continued his impressive form. He has 273 runs to his name and is their best batter, while Jos Buttler’s improved form is a positive.
It’s their bowlers who have given the Titans an edge, with Mohammed Siraj (ten wickets, ER 7.70) and R. Sai Kishore (ten wickets, ER 7.25) making things difficult for every opponent with their incisive bowling.

The Titans kept Washington Sundar out of the playing XI in the last match despite his performing well in his only game of the season. Will he get a chance? Here is a big question, as the Titans continue to back specific players depending on the conditions.
