These two teams have faced each other four times in the IPL. GT have won three of these games while SRH have managed to come out on top once.
The Pat Cummins-led side is in a spot of bother after losing their previous three matches. They have secured only one win in four games this season. In their most recent game, SRH took an 80-run hammering at the hands of Kolkata Knight Riders. Their bowlers were largely ineffective as they conceded 200 in the first innings.
Chasing the target, they lost their top three in the first three overs and could not recover from it. Heinrich Klaasen made 33 off 21, but his dismissal in the 15th over put an end to their hopes. SRH brought in Kamindu Mendis in the last game and are likely to continue with the same combination.
Possible XII: Travis Head, Abhishek Sharma, Ishan Kishan, Nitish Kumar Reddy, Heinrich Klaasen (wk), Kamindu Mendis, Aniket Varma, Pat Cummins (c), Harshal Patel, Zeeshan Ansari, Mohammed Shami, Simarjeet Singh.
Gujarat Titans suffered a close defeat in their season opener but bounced back with back-to-back victories. They are coming off an eight-wicket win over Royal Challengers Bengaluru. Mohammed Siraj starred with the ball, picking three for 19 while R Sai Kishore snared two for 22 to restrict the opponents to 169.
GT lost Shubman Gill early, but Sai Sudharsan continued his good form with 49 off 36. Jos Buttler scored a magnificent 73 not out in 39 deliveries as they chased down the target with 13 balls to spare. Kagiso Rabada has travelled back home for personal reasons and could miss this game as well.
Possible XII: Shubman Gill (c), Sai Sudharsan, Jos Buttler (wk), Sherfane Rutherford, Shahrukh Khan, Rahul Tewatia, Arshad Khan, Rashid Khan, R Sai Kishore, Mohammed Siraj, Prasidh Krishna, Ishant Sharma.
