Buttler has been in decent form so far this season for the Gujarat Titans, already having smashed two half-centuries. He is a key batter in the Gujarat lineup. Mitchell Starc has had a brilliant season so far. He proved to be the difference between the two sides in the previous Delhi game.
In the shortest format of the game, Buttler has faced 62 deliveries from Starc, where he has smashed him for 110 runs with the help of 14 boundaries and five sixes. He has lost his wicket just once and has dominated so far.
Lokesh Rahul vs Mohammed Siraj
KL Rahul is having a terrific season for Delhi Capitals and has been consistently performing for the team ever since he joined. Mohammad Siraj has been exceptionally well, too, and is probably having the best IPL season of his career so far.
Between the two, Rahul has had the clear edge over Siraj. He has smacked him for 97 runs off the 55 balls he has faced from him, where he has also hit seven boundaries and eight sixes. In this while, Siraj has been able to take his wicket just once.
Sai Sudharsan vs Axar Patel
Sai Sudharsan has been the most consistent batter for Gujarat Titans this season as well as the previous season. He has been a sensational find for the team. Axar Patel has been a great captain, keeping his team at the top of the table and has been great with the bat too. However, he would be looking to improve with the ball.
From the limited interaction these two have had, Sai has been dominating Axar. He has faced just nine deliveries from him, where he has scored 22 runs off him. Axar would be looking forward to changing those stats this time around.
