• Pitch: Analyzing the IPL match outcomes in the last two games at Narendra Modi Stadium, the Gujarat Titans triumphed on both occasions when batted second. As the match progresses, the pitch favors the batting side due to excessive dew at this venue.
  
• Toss: The toss-winning captain during the GT vs SRH match should prefer batting second. This is because the first batting teams struggle a lot during the power play and middle overs, while the acceleration begins only at the death overs.
