Match Preview
Gujarat Titans are set to face Chennai Super Kings in the 66th match of the Indian Premier League 2026 at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad on Thursday, May 21.
In the 66th match of IPL 2026, Gujarat Titans (GT) will take on Chennai Super Kings (CSK) in an important clash. Gujarat Titans suffered a disappointing 29-run defeat against Kolkata Knight Riders in their previous match. Chasing a massive target of 248 runs, Gujarat managed to score only 218 runs despite some solid batting performances.
Shubman Gill continued his excellent form with a steady knock of 54 runs, while Jos Buttler played an attacking innings of 57 runs. However, the Titans’ bowling attack struggled badly as Mohammed Siraj and Sai Kishore were the only wicket-takers. The rest of the bowlers failed to control the run flow against KKR’s aggressive batting lineup.
Meanwhile, Chennai Super Kings also faced disappointment in their previous match after losing by five wickets against Sunrisers Hyderabad. Batting first, CSK posted a competitive total of 180 runs, but Hyderabad chased it down comfortably in 19 overs.
Dewald Brevis was the standout batter for Chennai with a brilliant 44-run innings, while Karthik Sharma added a quickfire 32 off just 19 deliveries. In the bowling department, Mukesh Choudhary picked up two wickets, but the rest of the bowling attack struggled to make an impact.
