Ashish Nehra is José Mourinho for Gujarat Titans in this IPL leading his team swiftly in complex conditions and Today they will play against Delhi Capitals.
Gujarat Titans after breaking the winning streak of Rajasthan Royals is going their next match at Narendra Modi Stadium. Gujarat Titans is playing very strategically in the IPL 2024 as if they have decided to win this year IPL’s trophy. They have overall a balanced lineup of players who have a good experience of domestic cricket. Not having any Star player like other teams have, they are still on a better position in points table. This is where the experience of GT coach Ashish Nehra comes in play. We see him guiding his team in between the match multiple times. This builds the confidence in team and help them to win the game.
Delhi Capitals on the other hand is struggling to win match with a good margin. First they defeat CSK and then they defeat LSG. Both, the team are good but still lost to Delhi. This is where the problem of inconsistency comes as a obstacle for them. The batting lineup of DC is pretty strong. Prithvi Shaw and Rishabh Pant’s comeback is one of the best thing Delhi Capitals have received this IPL. However, Kuldeep Yadav is also playing like a magician. Delhi’s inconsistent performance in their lineup is the main reason of their loss.

Team Analysis of Gujarat Titans
Gujarat Titans surpasses the expectation in the IPL. They are just 2 year old but won the title in their debut season and then qualify to finals is a big thing for a new team. Winning title in debut season is a confidence booster for the team but the inclusiveness of Ashish Nehra (HEAD COACH) itself is a big relief for the team. Shubhman Gill is the new captain of the team. The team has plenty of domestic player who still have knowledge and control of Indian grounds.
Having Gill, Saha, Sai Sudharshan, Omarzai, David Miller, Umesh Yadav. Rashid Khan, Spencer Johnson, and many more put the team on an advantagous position. In this IPL, we have observed that having a strong bowling lineup especially in the powerplay and death overs put team in a more secured position. They need to work in their bowling department more and also the batting need to have more training of Yorkers and Spins because these 2 types of bowling is changing the overall game.

Team Analysis of Delhi Capitals
If we look Delhi Capitals as a overall, we will see that they have a good lineup of batting and bowling. But going into the details we will see a lot of loopholes which is the ultimate reason for the Delhi’s loss. The top order of batting lineup of the team is pretty strong and stable but in middle order they do not have anyone strong who can compensate the loss of top order. Like in yesterday’s match we see Dinesh Karthik going full blow on Sunrisers’ bowlers. He maybe not able to finish the but gave a class performance. This helped the team to get close to the target chase which will help the team in improving their points.
The bowling lineup of Delhi suffers a lot especially after the powerplays. If they are able to get wickets in the start, it helps them to dominate the game but if not then the pressure is real high and the bowlers are not able to carry it forward.
