Former Australia skipper Aaron Finch said that it would be a major concern for the defending champions Gujarat Titans (GT) if opener Shubman Gill did not fire. GT will play the opening match of the 2023 Indian Premier League (IPL) against four-time champions Chennai Super Kings (CSK) at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad on Friday, March 31.
“I think a concern area for Gujarat Titans will be their top order if Shubman Gill does not fire. Shubman Gill is the X-factor for the team. We know how freely he can score, he is such a damaging player and when he gets in, he goes really big. If he fires, their middle order will function very well and they will be very hard to beat,” Finch said.
“They have got a lot of firepowers and a lot of experience in that middle order and a huge amount of power, but if they get in too early, they will be in trouble,” he further added.
