Today at IPL: GT look to reclaim top spot vs struggling KKR, RCB take on SRH in battle of equals
India Today
Today at IPL 2022: Kolkata Knight Riders will be desperate for a win against Gujarat Titans while Royal Challengers Bangalore will look to halt SunRisers Hyderabad's winning streak in IPL 2022.
Gujarat Titans will battle for the top spot on the IPL 2022 points table, while SunRisers Hyderabad will look to extend their winning streak when the two teams will be in action on Saturday's double-header.
GT vs KKR
Having suffered three defeats in a row, the Shreyas Iyer-led outfit has slipped to seventh in the table and the task gets tougher against the Titans, who have been a revelation in their maiden season. The Hardik Pandya-led Gujarat Titans have been firing on all cylinders, with their batting prowess and bowling might.
Pandya pulled out of their last match against Chennai Super Kings owing to a groin injury, but it was business as usual for the Titans as stand-in skipper Rashid Khan led the team to a three-wicket win over the four-time champions.
The biggest plus in their win against CSK was Rashid's sensational form with the bat as he smashed a 21-ball 40 to help his team chase down the target with a ball spare.
RCB vs SRH
Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) will face a stern test against a rampant Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) when the two sides meet each other in match 36 of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2022 season at the Brabourne Stadium, Mumbai on Saturday, April 23.
