Both teams are in form and unlikely to make any big changes in their squad for the upcoming match. However, Washington Sundar can be an option in the Gujarat Titans squad, especially when Lucknow hasn’t produced much pace-bowling-supporting pitches. All-rounder Sundar adds crucial depth in the batting.
