One of the major reasons why Gujarat lost Qualifier 1 to CSK was their batting line-up. Other than Shubman Gill, nobody showed up against the Men in Yellow.

Highlighting Gujarat's batting woes, India's legendary cricketer Virender Sehwag expressed his disappointment at Sri Lankan all-rounder Dasun Shanaka who came as a replacement for the injured Kane Williamson.

"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 and he hasn't lived up to even 1 percent of those expectations. GT should play Manohar instead of Shanaka, as he is a batter who can smash sixes," Sehwag added.

Sri Lanka's white-ball captain Shanaka has played 3 games in IPL 2023 so far and has scored only 26 runs.
