Lucknow Super Giants began their season with a loss to Rajasthan Royals. Their form has turned around with wins over Punjab Kings and Royal Challengers Bengaluru. The emergence of Mayank Yadav has given the side the extra edge and have suddenly become the most exciting team to watch.
Gujarat Titans have played four games so far this season and have won two and lost two games. In the last game they lost to Punjab Kings in what was arguably the best match of IPL 2024 so far. Shubman Gill will want to rectify the mistakes made from the previous game and hope to make a quick turnaround.

Pitch report
This particular venue offers two pitches - one with red soil and the other with black. With the bounce being quite low on the latter, it has proven to be a tough one to bat on. However, both of LSG's home fixtures this season have been played on the one made up of red soil, and have provided high-scoring matches, with LSG winning both their fixtures this season by batting first, and then applying the strangle on their opponents to get over the line.
