The Gujarat Titans have had a mixed history at their home ground, the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad, in the Indian Premier League (IPL). In 2022, they emerged victorious by defeating the Rajasthan Royals in the final, but in the following season, they were unable to secure the title as they lost to the Chennai Super Kings. Their performance in 2024 suffered, with the team finishing eighth in the standings, mainly due to their struggles to dominate at home. Out of seven matches played at the venue, they only managed to win three, with the last game being washed out due to rain.
The team’s success this season will heavily depend on their performances at home. The Titans will be looking to their captain, Shubman Gill, who has a strong record in Ahmedabad in the IPL, to lead the team to victory. The stadium has seen some impressive performances, with the highest team score being 233/3 by GT against the Mumbai Indians in 2023, and the lowest team score being 89 all out against the Delhi Capitals in 2024. Shubman Gill holds the record for the most runs scored at the venue, while Mohit Sharma has taken the most wickets.
Teams batting second have had a slight advantage at the Narendra Modi Stadium in night matches due to the dew factor. Out of 36 matches played, teams batting second have won 20, while teams batting first have won 15, with one match ending in a tie. The Titans will be looking to capitalize on this trend to improve their performance and climb up the standings in the upcoming IPL season.
