After suffering an injury scare in the previous game against the Rajasthan Royals (RR), there were many questions about whether GT captain Shubman Gill would be healthy enough to play in the next encounter. On Friday, May 02, the Gujarat Titans (GT) and Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) will play their next match in Ahmedabad’s Narendra Modi Stadium.
The team and management had to remove the franchise captain and opening batsman from the pitch in the following innings because he appeared to be experiencing back spasms throughout the game. However, given that Titans’ director of cricket, Vikram Solanki, stated candidly during the pre-game press conference that he will be training today and is certain Gill will be well enough to play on Friday, it appears that Gill might be able to play in the game.
There was a minor back spasm in his fitness. All we’re trying to do is exercise caution. Today, he’ll be at training. Let’s wait and see where he is. Regarding the GT captain’s fitness update prior to the match, Solanki stated, “We’re fairly confident that he’s going to be OK.”
Solanki continued by talking about the match against the Royals, in which they suffered a startling defeat as a result of Vaibhav Suryavanshi’s outstanding innings in Jaipur.
First of all, I don’t believe the team has been completely destroyed or anything. We must not deprive the young man of any credit. We could have done things differently, of course, but Suryavanshi performed really well. Regarding the match against the Rajasthan Royals (RR), the GT director went on, “We could have bowled in a slightly more controlling manner, perhaps shutting him down.”
We must treat SRH with the respect it merits: Solanki
Speaking about the forthcoming IPL encounter, Solanki stated that even if the Orange Army is struggling, they should still respect the team because of how many game-winners on their squad have the ability to totally alter the outcome of the match.
“SRH must be treated with the respect it merits. They make a formidable squad. We will be aware of the danger they pose. “Everyone on their team is a match-winner,” Solanki said.
With six victories in nine games, GT is presently ranked fourth on the points table. GT has a fantastic chance to improve their standing in the table in the match against Hyderabad because a victory will move them up one spot.
