The home side have had a mixed start under new captain Shubman Gill. They did well to defend a low score at home in the first match against Mumbai Indians, but were found wanting with both bat and ball in their second fixture, losing to Chennai Super Kings by a massive 63 runs.

SRH lost their first match against Kolkata Knight Riders, but not before Heinrich Klaasen and Shahbaz Ahmed gave the home side a real scare in pursuit of 209. In their next match, they smashed an IPL-record 277 against MI, eventually winning by 31 runs.

In this article, The Sporting News provides all the fantasy tips ahead of the GT vs SRH clash.

Top fantasy picks and tips for GT vs SRH

Batter: Abhishek Sharma

In SRH's previous match, Australian opener Travis Head took the early initiative in the innings. Abhishek Sharma dropped down to number three, but came out to smash a half-century in just 16 deliveries batting mainly outside the Powerplay. Often a more calculated hitter than even Head, Abhishek could fetch a massive haul of fantasy points.

Bowler: Rashid Khan

In the T20 format, one of the bowlers you can always depend on is Afghan wrist spinner Rashid Khan. Even if he does not pick up bags of wickets, he is almost guaranteed to keep the runs down. He will vital if GT are to keep this rampaging Sunrisers batting lineup in check.

All-rounder: Azmatullah Omarzai

Despite the role of all-rounders decreasing since last season, Azmatullah Omarzai provides GT with a unique profile. Bowling seam-up, he often bowls three overs in the powerplay, swinging the new ball. He troubled the likes of Head in the World Cup in this role, and can add tremendous value with the bat in the middle-order.  

Wicketkeeper: Heinrich Klaasen

Against MI, Heinrich Klaasen was instrumental in helping SRH post that record total, with his 80*. At present, he is possibly the most fearsome ball striker in world cricket, and one can expect fireworks from him every time he walks to the crease.
