Pitch & Weather Report

The pitch of the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad has changed a lot. It was a solid batting pitch but black soil has been used and now it helps the slower bowlers. Batters will have to score runs in the powerplay because, with the progression of the match, the wicket will get slower and tricky for batting. The average 1st innings total in T20 internationals is 160 while the 2nd innings total is 140. The Gujarat Stadium has hosted 10 T20I games in the past. Out of those, the team batting first won 6 times and the team bowling first won 4 games. 

The temperature will be around 37 degrees in Ahmedabad. There is no chance of rain.

Gujarat and Hyderabad have faced each other in 3 matches. GT have won 2 of them while SRH have won 1 match.

Team News

Gujarat Titans

GT are coming into the match after a terrible performance in the last game against CSK. The bowling was poor so was the batting. Umesh Yadav, Omarzai, and Rashid Khan leaked runs cheaply while Mohit Sharma, Sai Kishore, and Spencer Johnson just conceded at an understandable economy. None of them were up to the mark and it caused the problem.

As for the batting, Wriddhiman Saha once again tried to provide his side with a solid start but failed. Shubman Gill also couldn't add much to the scoreboard. Vijay Shankar, Omarzai, David Miller, and Rahul Tewatia added just 50 runs in total together. Only Sai Sudharsan stepped up and played a mature inning but he also couldn't go long as there was no help from the other end.

If GT wants to win the match against SRH, they'll have to bring something new to the table. They are not looking like a strong team at the moment. Rashid Khan will have to improve and lead the bowling unit while Omarzai needs to concede less at least as he bowls in the powerplay. Mohit Sharma is not performing like last season but he is still good to bowl the death overs. Spencer is young so it is not wrong to say that he will improve with time. Sai Kishore is inconsistent so the skipper will be hoping he bowls his spell according to the situation as he mostly bowls in the middle overs.

Wriddhiman Saha has to score big in this match while Gill also needs to bring some consistency in his game. Sudharsan has scored runs in the last two games and he knows how to bat according to the situation. David Miller and Vijay Shankar will try to score some runs as the middle order is looking too thin at the moment. Otherwise, they will have to bring Kane Williamson in place of David Miller in the XI. Tewatia can hit big sixes but the fans haven't seen him do so for a long time. Gujarat doesn't have many options in their batting unit so it will be difficult if the current batters fail to deliver performances regularly.

Sunrisers Hyderabad

SRH broke the record for the highest run in an inning in IPL history during their second game of the season. They are coming into this match after a solid batting performance and it will be a huge task for the Gujarat bowlers to stop the Hyderabad batters from scoring. Travis Head, Aiden Markram, Heinrich Klaasen, and Abhishek Sharma led the team to 277 in their previous game. The batters hit 19 fours and 18 sixes against MI which is just wild in any format of Cricket.

GT vs SRH: Pat Cummins will try to lead his side towards the second victory this season

It was a solid batting pitch so the bowlers proved expensive but Pat Cummings is leading the side in the right direction. He rotated the bowlers really well so if the Gujarat pitch provides help to the batters, it will be very tough for the home side to keep up with the high-flying SRH. SRH are expected to play with the same XI against Gujarat. Mayank Agarwal and Travis Head will open the inning while Abhishek Sharma and Aiden Markram will come to bat at no 3 and 4 respectively. The finishing role will be upon Klaasen and Samad and we must not forget that Pat Cummins can also bat just like a proper all-rounder.

All the bowlers went for so many runs in their spells against Mumbai and they also faltered against KKR in the death overs. Bhuvneshwar Kumar is struggling to find his line and length while Unadkat picked up wickets but he has to stop giving runs so easily. Umran hasn't bowled too many overs this season so far and he hasn't improved either. Hasaranga is not fit to play yet and there's a possibility that he might not appear for the side too. Pat Cummins will lead the pace attack and will be hoping the other bowlers to give their best but it is expected that they will get some help from the Narendra Modi Stadium pitch.

Rashid Khan concedes the worst bowling figures at the Hundred

Rashid Khan is the world's most successful bowler in T20 cricket. At the age of just 26, he has surpassed all the great players. However, Rashid's performance has seen a decline in the recent times.

He had a back surgery after the 2023 World Cup. Rashid has not been the same as before since his return. He took 17 or more wickets in every season of IPL between 2017 and 2023. But in the 2024 and 2025 seasons combined, he got 19 wickets. His economy and average were also the worst in these two seasons. Rashid is currently playing in The Hundred and here he bowled the most expensive spell of his career.

Rashid conceded 59 runs

Leg spinner Rashid Khan is a part of Oval Invincibles. In the match against Birmingham Phoenix, he conceded 59 runs in just 20 balls. This is his most expensive spell in T20 cricket.

Along with this, no bowler has ever conceded so many runs in a single spell in The Hundred. Earlier, in IPL 2025, he gave 54 runs in 4 overs in the match against RCB. In 2023, he also conceded 54 runs in the match against KKR.

28 runs in last 5 balls

Rashid Khan conceded 28 runs on his last 5 balls. Explosive batsman Liam Livingstone hit 4 consecutive sixes after hitting a four on the first ball. Joe Clarke hit two sixes while Will Smeed hit a six.

In the match, Oval batted first and scored 180 runs for 8 wickets. Donovan Ferreira scored 63 runs in 29 balls. Birmingham won the match with two balls to spare. Livingstone scored an unbeaten 69 runs in 27 balls. Will Smeed also played an innings of 51 runs in 29 balls.

This is not the first time Liam Livingstone has thrashed Rashid Khan. He hit 5 sixes against Rashid in a match while playing for RCB in IPL 2025. His strike rate against Rashid in T20 is 200. Livingstone has scored 196 runs in 98 balls. During this, 5 fours and 21 sixes have come from his bat. Rashid has also dismissed him four times.

ICC ODI Rankings: Rohit Sharma overtakes Babar Azam; makes gains despite not playing since March

Indian ODI team captain Rohit Sharma has reached the second position in the men's ICC ODI rankings. In the new rankings released by the International Cricket Council (ICC) on Wednesday, the Hitman jumped one place and reached the second position. With this, he left behind Pakistan's star batsman Babar Azam

Rohit last played in March

Rohit, who has already retired from Tests and T20I, last played an ODI in March during the ICC Champions Trophy 2025 final against New Zealand, which India won.

Rohit has scored 180 runs in the ICC Champions Trophy in five matches, boasting a highest strike rate of 100.00 among the Indian batters in the tournament. Rohit has 756 rating points in the latest rankings.

Babar failed to perform against West Indies

On the other hand, Babar could not show anything special in the recent ODI series against West Indies, which the Men in Green lost 1-2 in Trinidad. As a result, he slipped to the third position.

With Babar managing just 56 runs against West Indies in three ODIs, the International Cricket Council (ICC) took a note of his strike rate to drop him to third. He managed a strike rate of just 62.22 against West Indies.

Gill at No. 1

There has been no change in Shubman Gill's reign in the latest ICC ODI rankings for batters. He is in first place with 784 rating points. Apart from Gill and Rohit, the third Indian in the top five is Virat Kohli, who is in fourth place. He has 736 rating points.

India continues to dominate the ODI charts, with five players in the top 15, including Shreyas Iyer (8th) and KL Rahul (15th).

India to play next ODI series against Australia

It is worth mentioning that the Indian team will tour Australia in October. During this time a three-match ODI series will be played between the two.

Rohit announced after Champions Trophy 2025 that he does not intend to retire from ODI cricket, even sharing a moment with Kohli joking about it during the celebrations.

However, despite having eyes on the 2027 Cricket World Cup, Rohit and Kohli's spots are reportedly not a guarantee in the ODI setup. In fact, as per reports in recent days, the veteran duo will also have to turn up in domestic cricket as a metric for form and fitness.

On the other hand, whether Rohit will continue to be captain till the World Cup is also a topic of debate. With 25-year-old Shubman Gill impressing in England, Rohit isn't an automatic captaincy selection anymore. However, the ODI rankings continue to reflect both Rohit and Kohli's continued prowess in the 50-over format.
