From Gujarat’s side, all eyes will be set on a returning Hardik Pandya who will be leading the lines for the Titans backed by a couple of strong Indian names in Shubman Gill and Mohammed Shami. Speaking during a ‘Gameplan’ episode on Star Sports, Sunil Gavaskar said: “The best part about Quinton de Kock is the fact that he also has captaincy experience. He has been a captain of South Africa and knows all formats of the game.”

“He knows what team building is all about because we are talking about a different team now. He will be very keen to contribute towards the team-building process. KL Rahul and Quinton de Kock’s right hand and left hand combination makes a devastating opening pair and they can get the team off to a flying start,” he added.
Barring the Indian stalwarts, there are quite a few impressive overseas names in the hut that would star, the likes of Dusmantha Chameera, Rashid Khan, Lockie Ferguson and Noor Ahmad who can be absolute show-stoppers on their days.
This is a contest that will pit youth against experience and some maddening T20 craftsmen in the making against the traditional big guns of the sport.
