Overall, the venues for both matches have been interchanged. The municipal corporation elections in Ahmedabad have necessitated the rescheduling of these matches. This change was officially announced on April 13, 2026.

The performance of both teams in IPL 2026 has been disappointing so far. While the Chennai Super Kings have won only one out of four matches and are in ninth place in the points table, the Gujarat Titans have won two out of four matches and are in fifth place. Gujarat Titans, who lost both their opening matches, have returned to winning ways by defeating Delhi Capitals and Lucknow Super Giants. Their next match will be against Kolkata Knight Riders on April 17. After this, they will face Mumbai Indians on April 20 and Royal Challengers Bangalore on April 24.
