While GT, the IPL 2022 winners, are comfortably placed at top of the points table via five wins from seven matches, defending champions KKR are at seventh position with three wins and four losses in seven games. Moreover, GT lead the head-to-head record against KKR by 2-1.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Gurbaz and Moeen come in place of South Africa duo Quinton de Kock and Anrich Nortje, with Angkrish Raghuvanshi set to come in during the chase as an impact player. \u201cThe pitch looks on the drier side, and when we bowl we want to see how it is behaving.\u201d<\/p>\r\n\r\n
\u201cIt is a chasing ground. We spoke after the last game. The players are working very hard. There is a motivation to go up the ladder. I am positive about all players. Not too worried about middle-order,\u201d said Rahane after winning the toss.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
GT skipper Shubman Gill said he doesn\u2019t expect for dew to come later in the match. \u201cDon't think there will be any dew. So it should be a good game. The way we have been bowling has been great. We have been contributing with wickets. The skill set that he (Rashid Khan, GT vice-captain) brings with his bowling has been great.\u201d<\/p>\r\n\r\n
