The 35th match, between the Kolkata Knight Riders and the Gujarat Titans, will be held at the Dr. DY Patil Sports Academy in Mumbai, and it promises to be a thrilling battle. Let’s dive into KKR vs GT Players Battle.

Kolkata began their season on a high note, but have unfortunately lost 3 consecutive games, and it is the exact moment for Shreyas Iyer and his team to pick raise their efforts. On the other extreme, GT has only lost one match out of six here so far and is now in a safe chair on the standings.

WE LOOK AT THE KKR vs GT PLAYERS BATTLE IN THIS GAME:

#1 Shreyas Iyer vs Mohammed Shami

Shreyas Iyer, the KKR skipper, scored 85 runs in the recent match against the RR, which is also his best score in the IPL 2022 so far. Shreyas is an aggressive batsman who has the flexibility to shift the course of a game. GT’s Shami has been a steady performer across all forms, especially in T20 cricket. Shami hasn’t been at his best in recent appearances, taking only one wicket in each of the last two games he faced. He could use his knowledge and expertise to consistently restrict the opposing player.

#2 Shubman Gill vs Umesh Yadav

GT batter, Shubman Gill was sent for a golden duck in the recent game against CSK, and he will be hoping to improve proceedings. He’ll be one of the more assured batters in high-pressure situations, and he’ll be prepared to retain his excellent form with the bat. KKR fast bowler, Umesh hasn’t picked up a wicket in his past 2 outings, but he’ll be hoping to get back on track with consistency after a 5-day break before this match.

#3 Aaron Finch vs Lockie Ferguson

In the most recent match, KKR opener Aaron Finch scored 58 runs. He can be a valuable asset to the team, capable of handling spinners and pacers. The team will be desperate to pick his brain to change the strategies. The Kiwi pacer, Lockie is able to generate a lightning pace and has the potential gradually turn the play on its edge. He has so far taken 8 wickets in 6 matches, and Titans would expect him to get crucial breakthroughs even if he appears to be going for runs.

#4 David Miller vs Sunil Narine

David Miller’s form has fixed a number of challenges for the Hardik Pandya-led team in the batting unit. ‘Killer Miller’ secured the game for Gujarat Titans in the latest encounter with a magnificent knock of 95 runs with 8 fours and 6 sixers at a strike rate of 184.31. Sunil Narine, the West Indies all-rounder, has been retained by the KKR for a hefty INR 6 crores. He was quite consistent in the recent encounter against RR, scooping up 2 wickets with an impressive economy of 5.20. He has the potential to tackle a well-settled batsman with his tactics.
