Sixth-placed Gujarat Titans will go up against ninth-ranked Delhi Capitals on Wednesday in Match 32 of the IPL 2024 at Narendra Modi Stadium, Ahmedabad. While the Shubman Gill-led side have won three matches and lost as many, Rishabh Pant & Co. have only managed to win twice in six games.
As many superstars will don their respective jerseys in this fixture, let’s have a look at which matchups should intrigue you the most when two sides go face-to-face in Ahmedabad.
Shubman Gill Vs Khaleel Ahmed
Runs | Balls | Outs | Dots | Strike Rate | Average |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
38 | 25 | 2 | 8 | 152.00 | 19 |
Gill has lost his wicket twice against Khaleel in 25 balls, and at the same time, his strike rate reads 152 against the left-arm quick. Therefore, it is safe to say that the stylish opener tends to attack Khaleel, and while doing that, he does not fear to lose his wicket.
We all know Gill's worries with the new ball if it moves, and Khaleel does exactly that, making it a wonderful mini-battle to watch out for.
Prithvi Shaw Vs Rashid Khan
Runs | Balls | Outs | Dots | Strike Rate | Average |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
22 | 14 | 1 | 2 | 157.1 | 22 |
In general, batters tend to play at slow pace against Rashid, even if they are hard-hitters. However, Shaw does not change his natural aggressive playing style against the Afghanistan superstar, striking at 157.2. He has only played two dots in the IPL against Rashid, while falling to once.
David Warner Vs Mohit Sharma
Runs | Balls | Outs | Dots | Strike Rate | Average |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
90 | 48 | 1 | 13 | 187.5 | 90 |
This record must have amazed you, right? Warner, over the years, has shown no mercy to Mohit, who is the biggest wicket threat for the Titans in Shami's absence. A strike rate of 187.5 after 48 balls is not a joke, and Warner has achieved just that.
So, if Warner stays a bit longer, don't be surprised if he starts hitting Mohit left, right, and centre more often than not during the middle and death overs.
