ToggleThe Gujarat Titans (GT) have a huge upper hand over the Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) in the SRH vs GT clashes with a 3-1 winning margin. In the reverse fixture of these two teams in Ahmedabad, the hosts carried themselves over the line with seven-wickets in hand.
The story of both the teams in the powerplay with the bat in hand has been quite contrasting. The hosts, Sunrisers Hyderabad have the highest team strike rate of 186.11 in the first six overs, going into the SRH vs GT face-off. The average of 47.29 is just incredible to even imagine, how quickly and responsibly they are batting against the new ball.
They have lost only 17 wickets in this period, which is the joint second lowest in this time-frame, while they managed a highest of 125-runs in the powerplay against the Delhi Capitals, and that too at an economy of nearly 21. What the Hyderabad batters will target in the SRH vs GT fixture will be going with the same mindset. They have smashed 49 sixes in this session, which is by far the highest among the 10 franchises.
Gujarat Titans haven’t really found the fire throughout the tournament. Their powerplay strike rate of 121.76 is the lowest among all the teams, as they have managed 526 runs in 12 innings. They haven’t lost much wickets in this time frame, as they are the joint best team in watching the back of their 16 players in this duration.
Before the SRH vs GT head-to-head, the visitors have smocked only 16 over-boundaries, which is the joint lowest in the powerplay of the IPL 2024 so far. Even their 59 boundaries are too quite low, and sits at the bottom of the table. The runners-up from the 2023 season, for the very first in their 3-year IPL history, won’t feature in the final of the tournament.
