Shubman Gill and Hardik Pandya have faced each other in three IPL seasons. Hardik has got Shubman out three times. Shubman has scored only 7 runs in 12 balls. He has hit just one four and no sixes. His strike rate is 58.3, which means he scores slowly against Hardik.
Rohit Sharma has played against Rashid Khan in many IPL seasons. He has scored 35 runs in 32 balls but has been out four times. He has hit three fours and one six. Rashid has troubled Rohit a lot, and his average against him is only 8.8, which means he gets out quickly.
Suryakumar Yadav has played against Mohammed Siraj in many IPL matches. He has scored 57 runs in 26 balls but has been out only once. His strike rate is very high at 219.2, which means he scores very fast against Siraj. He has hit five fours and four sixes.
Shubman Gill is the main man for Gujarat Giants and he’ll have to step up in this game after an average performance in the first match against Punjab Kings. He scored 33 runs in the first match. He is expected to do well in this game against Mumbai Indians however he will have to give respect to Hardik Pandya as Hardik has dismissed him thrice in just 12 balls.
Sai Sudharsan was GT’s best batter in the first match. He is so strong with his orthodox technique to bat. He usually scores run-a-ball in each match which provides you base points. With 156 fantasy points in his very first match, he is a top Dream11 pick.
Hardik Pandya is the captain of Mumbai Indians and is making a comeback after serving a one match ban for slow over rates. He is a great performer against Gujarat Titans. His average in batting and bowling is commendable at Narendra Modi Stadium.
Will Jacks is an English all-rounder and opening batter for Mumbai Indians who was in good form in the first match against Chennai Super Kings. Will Jacks scored 11 runs hitting two boundaries. Will Jacks bowled a few overs as well in that game which shows his value with the ball as well.
Tilak Varma is the most stable batter for Mumbai Indians and he has the ability to hover the innings in the middle order. He also has the ability to hit boundaries regularly. Tilak scored 31 runs in 25 balls against Chennai Super Kings, hitting two four and two sixes. He is a good budget pick in this match.
Raj Sai Kishore is a left arm orthodox bowler who plays for Gujarat Titans in IPL 2025. Kishore had a good first match against Punjab Kings, picking up three wickets by giving away 30 runs in his four overs. The Narendra Modi Stadium is not helpful for spinners but Sai Kishore used his experience to dismiss batters.
Kamlesh Nagarkoti and Romario Shepherd are the two players who were substitutes but didn’t get their chances in the last match. They might not be the best picks for now. Romario will not be able to fit himself with a full quota of foreign players in RCB while Kamlesh Nagarkoti will not be required for the Chennai leg.
