Toss coming up

Pitch report: "The pitch is an absolute beauty, not for the bowlers but for the batters," says Murali Karthik. "Quite a good covering of grass here," adds Chris Morris. "Would probably look to bowl first. Big ground, lots of pockets, and batters will have to do a lot of running."

Rashid Khan: Feels good to play at this venue, we have had some good games here, and also a few bad ones. As a player I enjoy a lot playing at this ground and I'm also enjoying playing for Gujarat Titans. For the first time, Gujarat is playing at different grounds and different pitches across India. I was the Player of the Match the first time I played in Mohali. Lot of memories here. I always try to focus on my strengths, the size of the grounds doesn't matter. I try to bowl in right areas. I have worked on my batting and I get a lot of opportunity at the Titans (in the nets and in the match).

One of the square boundaries is 74 meters, and the other one is 67 meters today. Straight down the ground is 74 meters on one end.

Pitch report: "It's an absolute beauty, not for the bowlers, but for the batters," says Murali Kartik. 74 metres and 67 metres, the boundary dimensions square of the wicket, 74 metres straight on one side. "Quite a good covering of grass, says Chris Morris. In my opinion, I will like to bowl first, and see what should be there to chase." 168, the par score, here. Anyone who wins the toss will want to bowl first.

Sai Sudharsan: Happy that I have been contributing for the team. We are not going with the results, we are focusing on what things to be done right, taking forward according to that. Getting used to the situation, adapting to different conditions, different bowlers and how to tactically move forward, I am learning those things with every game. I haven't played with Kohli yet, but I will enjoy talking to him once we play against them (RCB). I had a conversation with Kane Williamson as well, picking up things from great minds. Very happy to have conversations with such legends of the game, grateful for these opportunities.

Mustafa Moudi: Hope GT doesnt drop Yash Dayal... Stuart Broad and Ben Stokes went on to lead England after their nightmare overs in T20 WCs. Not comparing Dayal with those 2 but want to explain that one bad over cant define a bowler's career !!
