Former India pacer Varun Aaron, currently part of the commentary panel, also confirmed the news of Harshal’s hospitalisation.
The right-arm seamer has taken four wickets in four matches this season and has been a key figure in Sunrisers Hyderabad’s bowling attack.
"Happy to bat first. We want to be aggressive. It's a ground we like batting at, we scored 280 at this venue not so long ago. We need to play our best. Need to focus on our strengths. Harshal Patel misses as he is ill, Jaydev Unadkat comes in," Cummins sais during the toss.
Gujarat Titans' skipper Shubman Gill won the toss and elected to bowl against Sunrisers Hyderabad.
Gujarat Titans brought in off-spin all-rounder Washington Sundar in place of pacer Arshad Khan as Gill thought the black soil pitch might favour tweakers.
Washington is making his debut for the Titans.
"We are going to bowl first. Looks like a slowish wicket, different from the previous two games as it's a black soil surface. Generally it's a good wicket. We have been playing well, need to adapt to the conditions as soon as possible. I think we had good memories in the past, we are continuing to have good fun. Washington comes in for Arshad Khan," Gill said.

Gujarat Titans: Shubman Gill (capt), Sai Sudharsan, Jos Buttler (wk), Rahul Tewatia, Shahrukh Khan, Rashid Khan, Washington Sundar, R Sai Kishore, Mohammed Siraj, Prasidh Krishna, Ishant Sharma.
