Punjab Kings (PBKS) lost to Mumbai Indians by eight runs in a heartbreaking fashion in the last game. Ashutosh Sharma and Harpreet Brar fought well until the end but couldn't take the team home. Without Shikhar Dhawan, the team lacks the bite at the top of the order, as visible during the game against Mumbai Indians. The only solace the home team will have is the fact that the last time these two teams met, the Punjab-based team had won the game.

Gujarat Titans (GT) and Shubman Gill have had to endure a bad start to the post-Hardik Pandya era. The young skipper will be returning home to Chandigarh with a lot on his mind as far as his team's future this year is concerned. Gujarat Titans were crushed by Delhi Capitals in the last game, bowled out for their lowest-ever total in the IPL. With the batting and bowling struggling, Gill and his team need inspiration to make a comeback into the season.

Pitch Report

Chasing has been difficult at this venue, with the pitch starting to play tricks. It would be advisable for the skipper winning the toss to bat first and put a huge score on the board. The pacers will get help with the new ball, while the spinners will show their skills once the ball gets old. The small nature of the boundary means that there will be fours and sixes galore for the fans to enjoy.

Player Picks

8.5
C

Sam Curran PBKS | ALL

In yet another shambolic season for Punjab Kings, the form of Sam Curran has stood out. His failure against Mumbai Indians notwithstanding, Sam Curran has been one of the players who have been consistent with the bat and ball this year. His leadership skills is the only area he needs to work on if Shikhar Dhawan is set to be sidelined for long.

8.5
C

Shubman Gill GT | BAT

It hasnā€™t been an easy start to captaincy for Shubman Gill. The right-handed batter has shown his class with the bat at various times this season. With half the season gone and the Indian selection just around the corner, Shubman Gill will know he need to score big and come back into form.

9
C

Rashid Khan GT | BOWL

The Afghanistan superstar has been one of the best IPL players for the last few years. In the last game it was Rashid Khan who spared the blushes for Gujarat Titans with his 31 runs. Gujarat Titans will hope that Rashid Khan start delivering with the ball as well to help his side string a few wins together.

8.5

Ashutosh Sharma PBKS | BOWL

The burly right-handed batter from Railways has been one of the best breakout stars from IPL 2024. His 28-ball 61 against Mumbai Indians nearly pulled off a miraculous win for PBKS. Ashutosh will yet again face Gujarat Titans the very same side against whom he made his IPL debut against and managed to create an instant impact.

8

Sai Sudharsan GT | BAT

Gujarat Titans will be hoping that Sai Sudharsan can score a big one soon to help his team win the game. The left-handed batter has been the only batter apart from Shubman Gill who has shown some modicum of form with the bat. While Sai Sudharsan has been getting starts, he hasnā€™t managed to make it a huge knock so far this year.

8

Shashank Singh PBKS | ALL

The career trajectory of Shashank Singh has taken a huge turn since his amazing knock against Gujarat Titans. The 31-year-old is now called the crisis man for Punjab Kings and his knock against Mumbai Indians nearly helped his side win the game. Shashank Singh will be keenly looked at yet again to score the important runs and help his team win the game on Sunday.

9

Kagiso Rabada PBKS | BOWL

The South African pacer has been a safe bet for Punjab Kings this season with the new ball and the old ball. With Arshdeep Singh struggling for form, the onus has fallen on Kagiso Rabada to pick the wickets and help his team get out of tough spots during the first half of the tournament.

7

Noor Ahmad GT | BOWL

Young wrist spinner Noor Ahmad hasnā€™t been able to do much with the ball during this season of IPL 2024. The left-arm leg-spinner though is very talented that is why the Gujarat Titans team have persisted with him. One good game with the ball can help Noor Ahmad get his confidence back and become a potent bowler once more.

8.5

Harpreet Brar PBKS | BOWL

The left-arm spinner has been one of the best spin bowlers during the IPL 2024 season. Harpreet Brar has been a tough bowler to score against with his tight lines and accurate lengths. Even with the bat, Harpreet Brar is more than handy as seen during the last game against Mumbai Indians.

8.5

Arshdeep Singh

PBKS | BOWL

The 25-year-old pacer was thrashed for 35 runs from his 3 overs by the Mumbai Indians batters. With the T20 World Cup selection just around the corner, Arshdeep Singh knows that he is facing a race against time to impress the selectors. IPL 2024 hasnā€™t been a great tournament for Arshdeep Singh as he has struggled with the ball.

8

Spencer Johnson

GT | BOWL

The Australian pacer has found it tough in his debut season in the IPL. While he has bowled with good pace it is the wicket which haven't been delivered by Spencer Johnson for his side. There is no dearth of talent by Spencer Johnson but he knows the time is ticking for him to start delivering and come with good performances.
