In the 32nd match of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024, Gujarat Titans (GT) will take on Delhi Capitals (DC). The clash will take place at Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad on Wednesday.

Gujarat’s IPL 2024 campaign has been a rollercoaster so far. Despite a strong showing, defeating table-toppers Rajasthan Royals by 3 wickets, they sit at number six with 3 wins and as many defeats. The Shubman Gill-led team will be aiming to capitalize on this momentum and climb the ranks to secure a coveted playoff spot.

Unlike Gujarat, Delhi Capitals have endured a turbulent start. Inconsistent across departments, their only solace came in the form of a recent six-wicket victory against Lucknow Super Giants. With only 2 wins in 6 games, DC are placed at the second last spot in the points table.
