Toss Update:

Royal Challengers Bengaluru won the toss and elected to field first at the home venue.

Playing XIs:

Royal Challengers Bengaluru: Virat Kohli, Faf du Plessis(c), Will Jacks, Glenn Maxwell, Cameron Green, Dinesh Karthik(w), Karn Sharma, Swapnil Singh, Mohammed Siraj, Yash Dayal, Vijaykumar Vyshak

Gujarat Titans: Wriddhiman Saha(w), Shubman Gill(c), Sai Sudharsan, David Miller, Shahrukh Khan, Rahul Tewatia, Rashid Khan, Manav Suthar, Noor Ahmad, Mohit Sharma, Joshua Little

The pitch looks good to bat on. There is no grass and will also offer bounce for the fast bowlers. The square boundaries are 57 and 64 metres respectively whereas the straight one is at 69 metres. A high-scoring game is on the cards, citing the shorter boundaries and another flat-track surface.

Manav Suthar is making his IPL debut for Gujarat Titans and Joshua Little is also included in the playing XI. Royal Challengers Bengaluru are going with the same team.
