Today’s GT vs CSK Dream11 match top picks
Wicketkeeper
Matthew Wade: Matthew Wade hasn't been in the best of form in IPL 2022, unable to get going at the top of the order for Gujarat Titans. While he is likely to keep his spot in the side, Wade should fancy his chances against a weak CSK bowling attack. Given his knack for scoring quick runs in the powerplay overs, he is one to watch out for in this game.
Batter
Ruturaj Gaikwad: Ruturaj Gaikwad is perhaps CSK's most vital cog in their batting department. However, Gaikwad has underwhelmed at the top of the order with the likes of Robin Uthappa and Shivam Dube having to make up for it. Gaikwad is a good player of both pace and spin and with the CSK opener due for a big one, he is a good addition to your GT vs CSK Dream11 fantasy team.
All-rounder
Hardik Pandya: Gujarat Titans captain Hardik Pandya has been great in IPL 2022 and comes into the game on the back of a sensational all-round performance against the Rajasthan Royals (RR). While Hardik's abilities with the bat has held him in good stead, his bowling exploits have also served Gujarat well. With his all-round skills bound to come into play, he is a must-have in your GT vs CSK Dream11 fantasy team.
Bowler
Rashid Khan: Rashid Khan is one of the best bowlers in the world and has an impeccable record in T20 cricket. The leg-spinner has been brilliant in the middle overs with his accurate and economical spells. With there being some help on offer for the spinners, Rashid should fancy picking up a few wickets in this game as well.
