Ahmedabad Weather, GT vs CSK: Gujarat Titans (GT) would seek to secure a top-two spot while Chennai Super Kings (CSK) would continue their planning for the future when the two teams meet in the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025 match at the Narendra Modi Stadium on Sunday.
With Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) losing to Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH), the Titans still control their playoff destiny. A win against CSK will take them to 20 points and ensure a top-two berth, giving them two shots at making the final.
For CSK, already out of playoff contention, the focus will remain on building for the future as they look to test younger players and combinations in what has been a season of mixed returns.
M S Dhoni has kept the suspense on his IPL future alive since his international retirement in 2020. Will the game on Sunday be his last for the fabled franchise? The answer lies only with the charismatic leader.
GT need to improve in the pace department, specifically the fourth seamer option beyond Kagiso Rabada, Mohammed Siraj and Prasidh Krishna. The issue might be exacerbated when Kagiso Rabada leaves for national duty following the league stage.
The majority of GT's success with the bat has been built around the top three, comprising Shubman Gill, Sai Sudharsan and Jos Buttler, who would leave for national duty after the team's last league game on Sunday.
