Most of Gujarat Titans' innings could once again depend on the performances of Shubman Gill and Sai Sudharsan. The duo have scored most of the runs for GT throughout the season, and their partnership will be crucial for the side in the clash. 

In the unlikely case that rain plays spoilsport in the clash, and no play is allowed, the clash will be shifted to the reserve on June 1. The game will begin right from where it was left off the previous day. 

There is a yellow alert issued in Ahmedabad, and the weather is windy and breezy as per reports in Ahmedabad. Will rain interrupt the clash and play spoilsport?

It is interesting to note that Royal Challengers Bengaluru will be coming into the clash as the defending champions. The side has already beaten GT recently, and they will hope to put in another good showing as they take on the 2022 champions. 

It is interesting to note that Gujarat Titans lost Qualifier 1 of the tournament to Royal Challengers Bengaluru, where the defending champions completely dominated them. However, the side will hope to put in an improved performance as they take on RCB once more in the final.
