15:29 IST: It's toss time!

15:13 IST: Hello and welcome to the live blog of the match between Gujarat Lions and Sunrisers Hyderabad at Kanpur.

With this kind of a scenario, the defending champions will need both Orange Cap holder, skipper David Warner, and the Purple Cap wearing Bhuvneshwar Kumar, as well as all the others, to get their act together and push hard for a decisive win. Easier said than done against Suresh Raina-led GL, who will be playing for a lot of hurt pride.
