RR vs GT, Match 24 Pitch Report:
This is going to spin. For the seam bowlers, there’s not a great deal on this pitch. Seamers – avoid digging in, it’s just not going to work for you. Batting first, if they can get 170-180, that’s very defendable. The ground staff are treating the outfield again, so dew won’t be as big a problem as it has been earlier on in the IPL.

Trent Boult will be a good choice to risk as captain considering how thin Gujarat batting is and the fact that he will bowl with the new ball and also at the death.
