While MS Dhoni handed over the CSK captaincy reigns to Ruturaj Gaikwad one day before IPL 2024 began, Shubman Gill was made GT captain after Hardik Pandya moved to Mumbai Indians in a sensational swoop ahead of the mini auction. The re-match of last year's final is sure to rekindle sparks and is eagerly awaited by fans.

CSK won their opening match with ease, beating Royal Challengers Bengaluru by six wickets at home. Gujarat Titans too are coming into Tuesday's game on the back of a win. Gill and Co defeated the Hardik Pandya-led Mumbai Indians by six runs in Ahmedabad on Sunday.
Head-To-Head Record
CSK and GT have faced off five times over the previous three IPL seasons. The Yellow Army have won the latest two encounters, while Gujarat won three back-to-back clashes before that.
Pitch Report, Weather Update
The pitch on offer in Friday's CSK vs RCB game did not offer much spin, as was evidenced by the hosts' spinners not taking a single wicket. This is unusual for Chepauk, which is usually a spin-friendly venue. We might see something similar on Tuesday, with the ball skidding on to the bat.
