GRTG vs INDC Team Previews
Gujarat Giants
Barring their loss against the Manipal Tigers, Gujarat Giants have been clinical in their performance so far. They have won each of their last 3 completed matches and finished 3rd on the points table.
Despite missing its regular opening pair of Jacques Kallis and Chris Gayle, the Giants managed to put up a good performance in their last match as they managed to chase down 159 without breaking much sweat. Abhishek Jhunjhunwala, playing only his second match of the season, scored 81 runs and stitched important partnerships with Kevin O’Brien and Chirag Khurana to see his team through.
O’Brien and Richard Levi have batted well in patches but the team will need at least one of them to play a big inning if they want to post a big total. The bowlers have done a good job so far and have been one of the primary reasons for their team’s success.
Trent Johnston has been brilliant in the two matches that he has played and picked up 5 wickets, while S Sreesanth and Ishwar Chaudhary have picked up 7 wickets between them. Sarabjit Ladda has picked up a wicket in each of his 4 appearances and will feature in the spin attack alongside Monty Panesar.
Gujarat Giants Playing 11
Jacques Kallis, Kevin O'Brien, Richard Levi, Parthiv Patel, Abhishek Jhunjhunwala, Seekkuge Prasanna, Rayad Emrit, S Sreesanth, Sarabjit Ladda, Rajat Bhatia, Ishwar Chaudhary, Chris Gayle.
India Capitals
The India Capitals are the defending champions for this season but have endured a forgettable outing so far. The team has managed to win just 1 of the 4 completed matches and barely managed to scrape through to the playoffs thanks to a better NRR.
There is no dearth of talent in the Capitals’ squad for this season. Ricardo Powell smashed a century in the match against the Southern Superstars and is among the top 3 run-getters for this tournament. Similarly, Kirk Edwards, Kevin Pietersen, and Gautam Gambhir are all quality players who can turn things in the team’s favor.
Ashley Nurse has emerged as a reliable all-rounder, scoring 101 runs and also picking up 3 wickets. Isuru Udana has been excellent with the new ball and is the leading wicket-taker for the team with 7 wickets. He will be supported by Rusty Theron and Hamish Bennett in the pace attack.
The slower bowlers have struggled a bit tough with full-time spinner Pravin Tambe managing to pick up just 2 wickets.
India Capitals Playing 11
Gautam Gambhir, Ricardo Powell, Kirk Edwards, Ben Dunk, Kevin Pietersen, Ashley Nurse, Bharat Chipli, Rusty Theron, Isuru Udana, KP Appanna, Ishwar Pandey, Fidel Edwards.

The spinners will get some grip and turn throughout the match.
The weather in Surat is likely to be clear and there is no forecast of rain. However, there will be some dew during the second innings.
