Not the best team, inexperienced captain, debut season!

When Gujarat Titans sat for IPL auctions, no one had thought that their mediocre-looking line-up will take them this far. But, on Tuesday evening, the Titans became the first team to grab the playoff spot after trampling the starry line-up of Lucknow by a huge margin of 62 runs.

Gujarat could make some changes in the playing 11 as they don't have anything to lose and a win will only guarantee their top-2 finish on the points table.

On the other hand, the IPL season has been a nightmare for defending champions Chennai Super Kings as they are placed at the bottom half of the points table and have won just 4 in 12 matches. MS Dhoni-led side is already out of playoff contention. Read More
