IPL 2026: Gujarat Titans eye top-two finish with win against Chennai Super Kings

Gujarat Titans will look to strengthen their chances of securing a top-two finish when they take on a struggling Chennai Super Kings in the IPL on Thursday. Having already booked a playoff berth, GT are currently second on the points table, and a win would move them closer to Qualifier 1, giving them two opportunities to reach the final.

Despite criticism over their conservative batting approach, Gujarat opener Sai Sudharsan said the team’s focus remains firmly on winning matches rather than chasing a massive margin of victory. “The first important thing is to play good cricket and win the match,” Sudharsan said.
