After 70 enthralling group-stage matches, we reach the knockout stage. GT skipper Hardik Pandya will opt to go for no changes in his already settled side. There is no change needed in the Playing XI as GT who went on to beat RCB in their final group stage will aim to carry the same momentum against CSK in Chennai.
There will be no change in the openers. Shubman Gill continues to impress with his every performance. He replicated Virat Kohli by hitting back-to-back centuries in IPL to set a rare feat. Wriddhiman Saha who has been a bit shy of runs in the last couple of games, continues to impress with his quick decisions and lightning reflexes behind the stumps.
Down the order, Vijay Shankar went on to slam a fine fifty to remind us that he too can hit big shots if the situation deserves so. Hardik Pandya is a versatile batter and can float up and down the order to suit the condition of the game. David Miller and Dasun Shanaka will comprise the lower middle order of the team to anchor the innings if the top batter fails.
