Gujarat Titans vs Punjab Kings Team Previews

Gujarat Titans

GT had a tough season in 2024 but they will be looking for the bright things in this season. Shubman Gill is appointed as the vice-captain of the Indian cricket team as well so this is a perfect opportunity for him to prove his leadership. Their top order looks solid with Gill, Buttler, and Sai Sudharsan at the top three. Sudharsan was the top scorer for the team last year scoring 527 runs. The middle order includes firepower in Rahul Tewatia and Glenn Phillips. 

In the bowling department, Gujarat have a good Indian core with an experienced pair of Rashid Khan and Kagiso Rabada. GT’s biggest strength is their top order and their bowling, however their spin bowling looks a bit off due to the departure of Noor Ahmad to Chennai Super Kings but looking at their overall squad, they will surely do well in this IPL. 

Punjab Kings

PBKS has made major changes this season, with Shreyas Iyer leading the side and Ricky Ponting taking over as head coach. Their batting order has been revanced and is fueled with hard hitters like Iyer, Maxwell, Stoinis, and Josh Inglis. PBKS did well in the allrounder section picking up Stoinis, Jansen, Hardie and young promising allrounder Suryansh Shedge. 

Chahal and Arshdeep Singh added experience to their bowling lineup. PBKS has struggled to reach the playoffs since 2014 and this is a perfect opportunity to change that with a new looking squad and change in leadership. However they need their top-order batters to fire consistently.

GT vs PBKS Today Match Prediction

Both teams have a solid squad but it will come to the execution of plans eventually. Gujarat have Shubman Gill and Jos the Boss to start the things off in style while Punjab have the Australian trio of Glenn Maxwell, Marcus Stoinis and Josh Inglis, who by the way is in great form. Narendra Modi Stadium has clearly favored team batting second as dew makes it hard for the team bowling second, so team chasing will win this match.
