IPL 2024: Chennai Super Kings vs Gujarat Titans – Dafanews Match Preview

Reigning champions Chennai Super Kings will take on the previous season’s finalist Gujarat Titans at the MA Chidambaram Stadium, Chennai on Tuesday. CSK got off to a positive start as they won their opening game against RCB by six wickets whereas GT also registered a six-run win against Mumbai Indians on Sunday to kickstart their campaign on a high.

We take a lot at the head-to-head battle, players to watch out for, and Squads of both teams in our match preview.

Chennai Super Kings: CSK came up with a collective batting effort in their opening match of the season. Five of their top six batters crossed the 20-run mark against RCB and they will look to continue the good show against GT. Furthermore, Mustafizur Rahman was brilliant with the ball as he scalped four wickets in his fine spell.

Gujarat Titans: Despite posting an under-par score of 168 runs against Mumbai Indians, GT was successfully able to defend it. GT had their backs against the wall when MI needed 43 runs off the last five overs but their bowlers came up with a stellar performance.
