Gujarat v Chennai preview

New franchise Gujarat Titans have made a fine start to their IPL history, winning four of their first five matches, and they will be aiming to defeat defending champions Chennai Super Kings on Sunday.

Chennai's record is a mirror image of Gujarat's, with one win and four defeats from five outings, although that victory came in their last game when they racked up 216-4 against Bangalore.

Robin Uthappa (88) and Shivam Dube (95 not out) slammed 17 sixes between them in a 23-run win and the Super Kings are worth backing to follow up in Pune.

Punjab v Hyderabad preview

Sunrisers Hyderabad have nailed a couple of impressive run-chases in their last two matches to kickstart their campaign although they are slight outsiders to beat a hard-hitting Punjab Kings side.

The Kings have a dangerous top order featuring India internationals Mayank Agarwal and Shikhar Dhawan as well as England's Jonny Bairstow and Liam Livingstone but they could be unsettled by Hyderabad left-armer T Natarajan.

He took 3-37 in Friday's win over Kolkata, striking twice in the Powerplay overs and once at the death, and has picked up at least two wickets in all five of his IPL appearances this season.
