Pitch Report

The match is set to take place at Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad. Over the years, it has been a flat wicket. However, in the ongoing season, the wicket has been slow and helpful for the bowlers. The batters have struggled to score runs at a good rate. They key for the bowlers would be to operate in good line and length. The batters need to make the most of the powerplay overs. Dew factor might impact the match.

Player Picks

8.5
C

Harpreet Brar PBKS | BOWL

Harpreet Brar has been impressive with the ball so far in the league. in the first two matches against DC and RCB, he bowled well. Come the game against GT, he will be a key bowler for PBKS considering the nature of the pitch.

8.5
C

Shubman Gill GT | BAT

Shubman Gill has not been in that good a form coming into the match. The added responsibility of captaincy might have played a part. But the caliber of the batter is way too good that he can make a comeback at any point in the league.

8.5
C

Wriddhiman Saha GT | WK

Wriddhiman Saha has been able to provide good starts as a batter. With the gloves, he has been brilliant as usual. The concern with Saha is his consistency as a batter. The experience of Saha is essential for GT in the absence of some key players.

9

Shikhar Dhawan PBKS | BAT

Shikhar Dhawan has not been that impactful as a batter. But he has been able to score runs on the board. The experienced batter plays safe shots and is not highly likely to fail as a batter. He is a safe option in the fantasy teams.

8

Liam Livingstone PBKS | ALL

Liam Livingstone can contribute both with the bat and with the ball. Though he has not been asked to bowl in the league so far, he can step up and turn the ball either way. As a batter, he can bat at any position in the middle order.

8.5

Harpreet Brar PBKS | BOWL

Harpreet Brar has been impressive with the ball so far in the league. in the first two matches against DC and RCB, he bowled well. Come the game against GT, he will be a key bowler for PBKS considering the nature of the pitch.

7

Noor Ahmad GT | BOWL

Noor Ahmad is a very good bowler. In his debut season for GT, the Chinaman spinner claimed 17 wickets and impressed everyone. In the last game, he claimed the wicket of Travis Head and conceded 32 runs in his spell of four overs.

Avoid Having These Players In Your Fantasy Sports Team

8

Shashank Singh

PBKS | ALL

Shashank Singh is a talented player. However, as he mostly comes to bat lower down the order and does not get to bowl, it is not that useful to have him in the side.

9

Vijay Shankar

GT | ALL

Vijay Shankar has been out of form as a batter in the ongoing season. The star All-Rounder has not had an opportunity to bowl. Hence, it is risky to have him in the side.
