Arun Jaitley Stadium: As IPL 2025 resumes after an unexpected break, 2022 champions Gujarat Titans’ (GT) restart their aim of maintaining themselves for a top two finish when they take on Delhi Capitals at the Arun Jaitley Stadium on Sunday evening.

The Shubman Gill-led GT currently lead the points table with 16 points and are just one win away from sealing a spot in the playoffs. DC, on the other hand, are at fifth place with 13 points and their chances of entering the playoffs look a bit stiffer, considering left-arm fast-bowler Mitchell Starc is not coming back to India for the remainder of the tournament.

The foundation of GT’s success in IPL 2025 lies in their top three batters – captain Shubman Gill, B Sai Sudharsan and Jos Buttler. Statistics from Cricket-21 fully illustrate the awe-inspiring efficiency of GT’s top three - its batting average in the first ten overs stands at a whopping 92.7.
