Gujarat have defeated Chennai twice in two games. CSK would like to change that with a win to get things started. That would be a perfect start for Dhoni and his men.
During a net session recently, Dhoni was reluctant to take it and wore a camouflage kneecap to partially shield his left leg. The CSK skipper then stretched and pressed his leg towards the ground to assess his condition. he then walked out to the nets with a roar from the crowd.
Gujarat Titans Predicted Playing 11: Shubman Gill, Wriddhiman Saha, Kane Williamson, Hardik Pandya, Vijay Shankar, David Miller, Rahul Tewatia, Rashid Khan, Shivam Mavi, Mohammed Shami, Joshua Little
Chennai Super Kings Predicted Playing 11: Devon Conway, Ruturaj Gaikwad, Moeen Ali, Shivam Dube, Ambati Rayudu, Ben Stokes, Ravindra Jadeja, MS Dhoni, Deepak Chahar, Mukesh Choudhary, Matheesha Pathirana
