The Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad was the site of a close loss for the Gujarat Titans to the Punjab Kings. The game will take place at the same ground on April 17, 2024, and will be match 32 of the Indian Premier League (IPL).
Shubman Gill and Rishabh Pant are both rising stars in Indian cricket. One day, they might even be leaders. It looks like this match will be a big one. Pay attention to these five important fights:
Between David Warner and Umesh Yadav
IPL 2024 GT vs. DC, David Warner has usually done better against Indian fast bowlers. What about Umesh Yadav of Gujarat? He has always been tough for the Capitals batter to hit off of. Warner has played 18 times toward Umesh and has hit 145.88 percentage of the balls he encountered, scoring 99 runs. But he’s been out five times, and his average is a bad 19.8.
Two Teams Bowl in Death Overs
When it comes to who bowls first, the two sides are very different. This team has been very tight, but in the last five overs they have given up 13.8 runs per over. The Gujarat Titans have only given up 9.2 runs per over. Gujarat has taken 14 wickets in the last few overs of the IPL 2024 GT vs. DC, while Delhi has only gotten nine.
Shubman Gill vs. Rishabh Pant
Shubman Gill is in the top five of the IPL 2024 orange cap list, while Rishabh Pant has gotten a lot better since he came back. Pant has the best strike rate of all hitters in IPL 2024 when facing fast bowlers. Pant’s strike rate of 193 against fast bowlers is the highest of any batter who has faced at least 30 balls in overs 7–15 this season.

When it comes to strike rates, Gill has been one of the slow starts this season. He hits 120 in the first 10 balls of his turn at bat. It goes up to 160 in the next 10 balls.
The Toss Battle
A captain has won the toss at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad an amazing 79% of the time and chosen to play first. When it comes to IPL grounds that have held 10 or more games since 2021, this one has the third-highest win percentage for teams that are in the hunt.
This means that the toss will be very important in this game. The Capitals also have the best record of wins at this venue. In six games, they’ve won 66.6% of them, which is more than the Titans, who are hosting.
Kraig Stubbs vs. Rashid Khan
Here is the IPL 2024 Points Table.
The last five overs, also known as the “death overs,” are when the most wickets are taken (101) — more than any other team. One of the main reasons that happened was Rashid Khan. The Afghan star bowler has taken 21 wickets in overs 16–20 and given up just 7.75 runs per over, making him the second most economical bowler in that part. This made the players try to score runs off of other bowlers, which caused them to lose wickets.
Tristan Stubbs, on the other hand, is the best batter that the Delhi Capitals have ever had. With a strike rate of 169, the Proteas batter struck 54.8 on average and scored 548 runs in 18 games. After three years, 2024 has been the best year for both his hit rate and average.
