Both of these teams have won eight matches out of their 11 games and they will be looking to fight for the top spot on Tuesday at the Maharashtra Cricket Association Stadium, Pune in the 57th match of the contest.
Both of these teams have ticked the right boxes as they have come up with a collective effort in the ongoing season. Gujarat Titans have lost their last two matches and they will look to return to winning ways in the upcoming match.
In fact, the Titans were cruising in the last game against Mumbai Indians but veered off the track in the run-chase as they lost wickets in a cluster.

Quinton de Kock and Deepak Hooda came up with a stand whereas Marcus Stoinis had added the finishing touches.
