Gujarat Titans are set to host Kolkata Knight Riders in Match 63 of the Indian Premier League 2024 at Ahmedabad on Monday.
Gujarat Titans have competed in 12 matches and currently hold the eighth position on the points table with 10 points. Kolkata Knight Riders, having also played 12 matches, have already secured a spot in the playoffs. However, they aim to maintain their top-ranking position by clinching victory in this match.
For Gujarat Titans, this match marks their final group stage fixture. Despite high expectations due to their consecutive finals appearances in previous editions, they have struggled, managing only five wins out of 12 matches. Nonetheless, they enter this clash on the back of a convincing 35-run victory over Chennai Super Kings.
In contrast, KKR became the first team to qualify for the playoffs after defeating Mumbai Indians at home. They have significantly benefited from Sunil Narine’s opening batting strategy, with Narine emerging as their top scorer with 461 runs in 12 matches, including three half-centuries and one century.
In their IPL history, Gujarat Titans have defeated KKR twice in three encounters.
