Gujarat Titans will face Mumbai Indians in Qualifier 2 of IPL 2023, at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad on Friday. A lot is at stake for both teams as the winner will face Chennai Super Kings in the final. Ex-India opener Virender Sehwag stated that Shanaka should be dropped for Qualifier 2.

Speaking to Cricbuzz, Virender Sehwag said –

“I’m not worried about the bowling too much. But I am worried about Dasun Shanaka, GT can play Odean Smith and Alzarri Joseph for him. Shanaka has been disappointing. We had big hopes from him and he hasn’t lived up to even 1 percent to those expectations. GT should play Manhor instead of Shanaka, as he is a batter who can smash sixes.”

For GT, their batting hopes will be dependent on Shubman Gill. The India opener is second in the Orange Cap race with 722 runs in 15 matches, at an average of 53.25 and 139.82 strike rate
