Gujarat Titans (GT) are set to host Chennai Super Kings (CSK) in the 67th match of IPL 2025, at Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad. This match is a must win contest for the host to ensure a place in the top two.
GT, the table toppers, suffered a tough defeat in their last match against Lucknow Super Giants (LSG), delaying their hopes of securing a top-two finish. Despite the setback, their strong form keeps them in the race for the top spot. The middle order showed promise in the previous outing, with Shahrukh Khan and Sherfane Rutherford scoring at a good pace. However, Jos Buttler’s absence in the playoffs could be a concern for the side.
CSK, on the other hand, are enduring their worst season in the league. Sitting at the bottom of the table, the five-time champions will aim to play the role of spoilers. Their youngsters have offered some positives, with 17-year-old Ayush Mhatre striking the ball cleanly and Dewald Brevis finishing strongly in recent games.

Narendra Modi Stadium Pitch Report:
The Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad offers a well-balanced pitch that favors both batsmen and bowlers. Early in the match, fast bowlers can get some movement off the surface, making the initial overs crucial for taking wickets. As the game progresses, the pitch tends to slow down slightly, giving spinners an opportunity to make an impact in the middle overs. The outfield is fast, allowing batsmen to score quickly, but the large boundaries demand well-timed shots.
