GT vs CSK IPL 2026: Gujarat Titans and Chennai Super Kings will have two different objectives when they face off in match no. 66 of the IPL 2026 season at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad on Thursday. On the one hand, there is GT, who have already qualified for the Playoffs and are not looking to secure the second spot on the Points Table.
On the other hand, there is CSK, just hanging on by a thread in their bid to qualify for the next stage. A win over Shubman Gill’s GT on Thursday night, will take Ruturaj Gaikwad’s CSK to 14 points but they need to win by a massive margin to ensure that they can displace Rajasthan Royals from the 4th spot on basis on Net Run Rate.

CSK’s current net run rate stands at -0.016 as compared to 0.083 of Rajasthan Royals, who are in 4th place with 14 points. But a loss will be end of the road for CSK. A win doesn’t guarantee a place in the Playoffs either as RR or Punjab Kings or Kolkata Knight Riders can overhaul their Points Tally.
GT are looking to win their last league match and their position of the Points Table comes later. “The first important thing is to play good cricket and win tomorrow,” GT opener Sai Sudharsan said in the pre-match press conference at Ahmedabad on Wednesday.

“We are not in a position to think about winning by a very big margin or getting a very big win. It is about again doing the right things which we have been doing and first getting a victory,” Sudharsan added.
Sudharsan is one of the leading run-scorer in the IPL 2026 season with 554 runs in 13 matches at a strike-rate of 157.83. The GT opener revealed why the league has fallen short of the 300-run total so far.
“One thing is it’s not so easy to score 300 and as a batting unit, everybody have to just fire from ball one. That’s when 300 is possible.
“Also, as a bowling unit who is bowling against, for example, if they are going against 300, it is very difficult to bowl that bad also to be honest. I am not trying to say anything wrong here but the bowlers have to bowl really bad for any team to go 300,” Sudharsan said.
GT only hold a slight edge when it comes to head-to-head contests against CSK with 5 wins as compared to 4 losses so far. At the Narendra Modi Stadium, both sides have won 2 matches each.
Only one – secure our spot in the top 2
