Our Prediction
Gujarat Lions stunned Kings XI Punjab in Mohali with an easy 5-wicket victory over them on Monday. Rising Pune Supergiants too opened their IPL account with a resounding 9-wicket win over Mumbai Indians in the opening game of the tournament. The two new franchises will now go head-to-head in Rajkot on April 14. The 6th match of the Indian Premier League 2016 will be played at the Saurashtra Cricket Association Stadium with live action scheduled to begin at 8 PM local time. The two teams will face each other for the very first time in the IPL and an exciting contest is likely on the cards.
GL Team News & Playing 11
Led by Suresh Raina, the team secured two points from their first match and have set the tone for the rest of the tournament. Aaron Finch was sensational in his knock of 74 off 47 balls to guide Gujarat Lions to victory. The player of match announced his return to form which makes him a good betting option. Brendon McCullum's stay on the crease lasted only two balls but the Kiwi batsman is expected to make a strong comeback on Thursday. Wicketkeeper-batsman Dinesh Karthik also made a fine contribution of 41 runs while Raina's 20 is a good sign for their batting.
Gujarat Lions bowled well on what seemed to be a flat batting surface. Dwayne Bravo emerged as the star performer with the ball, claiming 4 wickets with a fantastic economy rate of 5.50. The allrounder from West Indies should be backed to bag the most wickets for Gujarat Lions against RPS. Spin might be a factor in Rajkot which makes Ravindra Jadeja worthy of a bet.
RPS Team News & Playing 11
They were clinical in their debut match against the Mumbai Indians and beating one of the tournament favorites will boost their confidence. After being put to field first, the Supergiants restricted the Indians to 121 with Mitchell Marsh finishing with the best bowling figures for his side. The Aussie fast bowler took two wickets for just 21 runs in his four overs. Ishant Sharma also picked up a couple of scalps with a decent economy rate. But given the nature of the track in Rajkot, it should be safe to go with Ravichandran Ashwin as the primary betting option.
It only took three of the RPS batsmen to go past the MI total. Ajinkya Rahane's unbeaten 66 off 42 balls was the highlight of the match which earned him the 'Man of the Match' award. Kevin Pietersen too looked in good touch with a well-compiled 21 not-out. Skipper Ms Dhoni is likely to bat down the order and with Steven Smith out of form, Faf du Plessis will be a better bet. The South African batsman scored a fluent 34 and is expected to top-score for the Supergiants on Thursday.
Final Prediction
Gujarat Lions and Rising Pune Supergiants will be playing against each other for the first time in the Indian Premier League. Both the newly formed teams have talented T20 players in their side who can produce match-winning performances on a given day. Both of them strike a fine balance between batting and bowling. With equally strong resources on either side, the two teams stand evenly matched with very little to choose between them.
It all boils down to their ability to deliver under crunch situations and the team that will keep its cool is likely to emerge victorious. Rising Pune Supergiants will be playing at their home ground in Rajkot which is a slight advantage, but an advantage nonetheless. So the Supergiants will have a little upper hand when take on the Gujarat Lions on Thursday.
