Venue: Narendra Modi Stadium, Ahmedabad
Chennai Super Kings Review:
Chennai Super Kings made a big move to include England all-rounder Ben Stokes in their lineup for IPL 2023 season. Ben Stokes is very excited after joining CSK, saying that he will play in his capacity as an all-rounder, and that will bring a lot of flexibility to the team. He will replace legendary all-rounder Dwayne Bravo who is no longer a part of the IPL. Completing the absence of Dwayne Bravo will be a challenge for Ben Stokes.
Apart from Bravo, teammate Robin Uthappa has also retired and will likely be replaced by Ajinka Rahane in the lineup. It is a bit difficult to understand why Chennai Super Kings bought Ajinka Rahane (not a natural modern T20 player) but now it looks like he will have to play at number three or four in the batting lineup. Devon Conway, Moeen Ali, Ben Stokes, Ruturaj Gaikwad, Ambati Rayudu, Ravindra Jadeja, and MS Dhoni are likely to be in the top order for CSK.
Deepak Chahar is fully fit and will return as the powerplay specialist bowler. His performance in the Powerplay is much better, with an overall dot ball percentage of 52% and he has also picked up 43 wickets during this period at a strike rate of 23.7. These early wickets have a big impact on the outcome of the match. His availability boosts CSK’s chances of becoming an IPL winner.
Maheesh Theekshana, Ravindra Jadeja, Moeen Ali, and Ben Stokes give CSK plenty of bowling options.
Gujarat Titans Review:
Gujarat Titans have basically retained their last season’s squad, with a few tweaks to make the team slightly stronger than last season. Shubman Gill is in the best form of his life, apart from him Mohammed Shami has also turned into one of the most reliable white-ball bowlers in the world. Both the players have given strong performances in their last international matches.
With Hardik Pandya fit last season, he has been able to play a big role with both bat and ball, due to which the balance of the Gujarat Titans team is quite good. David Miller’s absence for the opening match against CSK is a matter of concern. Miller is Gujarat’s star player, last season he scored 481 runs, had the highest batting average, and hit the most sixes (23) for the Titans. Kane Williamson will replace him in the current scenario but it’s not really the same role.
Gujarat’s batting lineup is largely dependent on Shubman Gill and Hardik Pandya. If both these players get out cheaply then Titan can be seen struggling. Though Wriddhiman Saha scored 317 runs last season and is likely to bat at the top of the order, but not much can be expected from him. Matthew Wade, Sai Sudharshan, and Abhinav Manohar could be other batsmen who could find a place in the playing XI for the first match.
Rashid Khan, Hardik Pandya, Mohammed Shami, Alzarri Joseph, and Yash Dayal can complete the bowling lineup. Rashid Khan can count on a couple of wickets in four overs with an economy of 6. This will help in creating pressure on the opposition team for other bowlers as well.
Looking at the current team squad, the only real weakness for Gujarat is the lack of a top-quality batsman like David Miller as a backup.
