Gujarat Titans Playing 11 vs KKR- IPL 2025, Match 39:
Openers: Shubman Gill (c), Sai Sudharshan
Gujarat Titans skipper Shubman Gill will begin the innings along with Sai Sudharshan. Gill would like to get some runs under his belt after failing to make a significant contribution in the last game against DC
Sai Sudharsan, who has been in terrific form in IPL since his debut in 2022 and will hope to put on a strong display of batting in the upcoming game against KKR after getting out for 36 runs against DC
Middle-order batsmen and all-rounders: Jos Buttler (wk), Shahrukh Khan, Sherfane Rutherford, Rahul Tewatia, Rashid Khan, Washington Sundar
Gujarat Titans would like their middle-order batters, including the likes of Jos Buttler, Shah Rukh Khan, Sherfane Rutherford, and Rahul Tewatia, to get a hit in the middle as the bulk of GT's runs have been scored by the top three batters.
Jos Buttler will play an integral part in the next match against KKR at their home ground in Kolkata as the right-hander has a decent record against the defending champions, which includes a match-winning hundred he scored against this very team while playing for RR in IPL 2024
GT has made a smart choice with the selection of the impact substitute between Washington Sundar and Sherfane Rutherford, with the team sending Washington at number four if wickets fall early while chasing and using Rutherford as the finisher when it comes to maintaining a solid net run rate.
Bowlers: Sai Kishore, Mohammed Siraj, Prasidh Krishna, Arshad Khan
GT would like to put on a strong show with the ball after going for a few runs in the last match against the Capitals, as Mohammed Siraj and co conceded 200 runs on a decent-sized ground in Ahmedabad
Experienced fast bowler Mohammed Siraj would like to bounce back after failing to make an impact against DC and will be itching to take the field against KKR at the Eden Gardens, a ground which is known for assisting the fast bowlers in the first six overs of the match
GT would be elated by the form of Prasidh Krishna, who picked up four wickets in the last game and is among the leading wicket-takers in the tournament so far. Prasidh would like to replicate the performance of the last game against KKR as well
Gujarat Titans has one of the most lethal spin attacks in the tournament, but has failed to make an impact in the last few games, which was evident against DC as the duo of Kishore and Rashid failed to pick up wickets in the middle overs
