The firs match of the last double header of IPL 2022 will see eliminated Chennai Super Kings (CSK) and first team to qualify for the playoffs Gujarat Titans (GT) lock horns at the iconic Wankhede stadium in Mumbai.
The defending champions were given a hammer blow by their arch rivals Mumbai Indians as they were bundled out for 97. If it wasn’t for a gutsy innings played by their captain MS Dhoni, things could have been worse for them. The biggest positives for them was the spells of Simarjeet Singh and Mukesh Choudhary who kept MI under check and made sure they don’t run away with it.
Gujarat Titans, on the other hand, are having a dream run as they have nine wins from their twelve games and look more than certain to finish in the top two this season. They overcame another new franchise, Lucknow Super Giants led by KL Rahul as they won by a commanding margin of 62 runs.

Pitch Report
The Wankhede pitch has been a batter’s paradise with the ball coming nicely onto the bat and dew in the second innings making it an even easier prospect for the men with the bat in their hands.
Match Prediction
Gujrat Titans have already qualified and might want to try some things around. Chennai might also want to do that but would love to get a win to make sure they are not in the bottom two. It’ll still be a close game between the two but Gujrat might just get the edge.
