Stadium: Maharaja Yadavindra Singh Cricket Stadium, Chandigarh, India
21 April, 2024, 20:00 (Indian Standard Time)
Punjab Kings and Gujarat Titans are going head to head in the Match 36 of Indian Premier League at Maharaja Yadavindra Singh Cricket Stadium, Chandigarh, India on 21 April, 2024. Punjab needs this win to keep their playoff hopes alive. Who will win this game of cricket?
Punjab Kings form
The Punjab Kings have struggled with their batting group, especially their top order, in the first half of the tournament. With Dhawan sidelined due to injury and Bairstow out of form, the team needed a new opening pair. Atharva Taide was tried in the last game, but it did not work out. Rilee Rossouw also could not make a strong impact in his first match of the season in place of Bairstow. Liam Livingstone has also been disappointing with the bat.
Shashank Singh and Ashutosh Sharma have been reliable in scoring runs in the lower order, but the team cannot relax given the struggles of their top and middle order. Arshdeep Singh's inconsistency has been a problem, as Harshal Patel and Sam Curran have not been effective in restricting opposition batsmen. Harpreet Brar has provided some control in the middle overs, but needs to focus on taking more wickets. Overall, the team needs to perform better in both the batting and bowling departments to improve their results.
Punjab Kings Predicted Lineup
Rilee Rossouw, Prabhsimran Singh, Sam Curran (capt), Jitesh Sharma (wk), Liam Livingstone, Shashank Singh, Ashutosh Sharma, Harpreet Brar, Harshal Patel, Kagiso Rabada, Arshdeep Singh. Impact Sub: Harpreet Singh.
Gujarat Titans form
Gujarat Titans have been underwhelming with the bat this season, as evidenced by their poor performance of only 89 runs against DC. Apart from Gill and Sudarshan, the other batters have struggled to consistently contribute. Tewatia has scored around 110 runs, but the rest have not exceeded 99 runs. Players like Vijay Shankar and David Miller, who performed well last year, are currently out of form. There have been multiple changes in the team, including trying different players in various positions, but these strategies have not been successful. The bowlers have also not been as effective, with Mohit Sharma performing decently with 8 wickets, but not at his best. Rashid Khan has not been as threatening since returning from injury. Noor Ahmad has shown promise in the limited chances he has had. Some decisions, like swapping Sandeep Warrier for Umesh Yadav, have not worked in their favor. Despite these challenges, Gujarat Titans still have opportunities to improve and finish the season on a high note with 7 games remaining.
Gujarat Titans Predicted Lineup
Shubman Gill (capt), Wriddhiman Saha (wk), Sai Sudharsan, David Miller, Abhinav Manohar, Rahul Tewatia, Rashid Khan, Mohit Sharma, Noor Ahmad, Spencer Johnson, Sandeep Warrier. Impact Sub: Shahrukh Khan.
