With four victories from 11 matches, GT currently occupies the bottom spot on the points table. On the other hand, Chennai Super Kings (CSK) holds the fourth position on the points table.

Noor Ahmad

Noor Ahmad, hailed as a wicket-taking bowler, boasts an impressive record of not conceding many runs, solidifying his status as one of the top bowlers since 2023. The talented chinaman spinner has the ability to dismiss some of the world's top batters, making him a formidable force on the field. Additionally, he exhibits exceptional fielding skills, ensuring safety in the field. 

Rashid Khan

While Rashid Khan's bowling form has not been at its peak this season, the upcoming must-win game for GT is expected to ignite his determination to deliver for his team. His primary focus will be to restrict runs against Shivam Dube. Moreover, Rashid has the potential to turn the tide in matches with his batting prowess.

Shubman Gill

In recent matches, Shubman Gill has struggled to find his batting form. Nevertheless, the upcoming opportunity presents a favorable chance for him to excel as a batsman. The talented player is encouraged to adopt an aggressive approach at the crease and focus on his performance without being burdened by outcomes. Notably, Gill has a commendable track record when playing at home.

Tushar Deshpande

Tushar Deshpande has emerged as a standout performer for CSK this season, showcasing his prowess as a bowler. The rising pacer has consistently delivered strong performances for the team. With Matheesha Pathirana and Mustafizur Rahman unavailable, Deshpande will shoulder added responsibility in the bowling department.
