Armed with hard-hitting all-rounders, new entrants Gujarat Titans and Lucknow Super Giants would aim to start their IPL campaign on a winning note.

Gujarat would heavily bank on the performance of their skipper Hardik Pandya, who has loads of experience playing at Wankhede. For Lucknow, a lot rests on their skipper KL Rahul, who could open the batting with South African Quinton de Kock.
