Chennai Super Kings have lagged far behind in this matter.
what is that award
The players of Gujarat Titans team performed brilliantly this year. Everyone’s performance from the team’s batsmen to bowlers was excellent. In such a situation, the players of Gujarat Titans have confirmed their two awards before the final match. This award is of Orange Cap and Purple Cap. In fact, the Orange Cap is currently held by Shubman Gill, the star batsman of Gujarat Titans. Gill has scored 851 runs in 16 matches this year. He is followed by Faf du Plessis of RCB who is second with 730 runs and his team is out of IPL. In the final, there is a team of Chennai Super Kings, on whose behalf Devon Conway has scored the most runs. Conway is sixth in this list with 625 runs. Conway will not be able to beat Gill in the next match even if he wants to, because he is still 226 runs behind him, which is an impossible task to make in a match. Overall, the Orange Cap is expected to remain with Shubman this year.
Apart from this, now talk about Purple Cap, Gujarat Titans players are present on the top three in the list of Purple Cap this season. Mohammed Shami (28 wickets) in the first place, Rashid Khan (27 wickets) in the second place and Mohit Sharma (24 wickets) in the third place. Apart from this, Tushardesh Pandey is in sixth place with 21 wickets in this list from CSK, who will still need 8 wickets to beat Shami. It is not an easy task for any bowler to get 8 wickets in a T20 match. In such a situation, the Purple Cap will also be occupied by one of these three players. So the Purple Cap will also be named after the players of Gujarat Titans.
