GT vs PBKS Toss Factor

The pitch at the Narendra Modi Stadium has looked like a two-paced one. While bowlers with pace were hit for runs, the ones with cutters and slowers have been pretty efficient. The batters who could spend time adjusting to the pace and bounce of the wicket will be able to score runs. 

Scenario: If Gujarat Titans win the toss

• If GT win the toss, they will look for the field first. Their batting line-up has good depth, and players like Gill, Sai Sudharsan, and David Miller will be very good picks. 
• Mohit Sharma has taken wickets for the Titans in this tournament. He enjoys bowling at the Narendra Modi Stadium, and his style of bowling is suitable for the venue. Alongside Sharma, spinners like Rashid Khan and Noor Ahamd will be good picks for the game. 

Scenario: If Punjab Kings win the toss

• Shikhar Dhawan has been the prime batter for the Punjab Kings in IPL 2024. He has been in good form and will again be the maintstay for the team at this venue. Barring Dhawan, Jitesh Sharma looks like a batter who can be useful at this pitch. 
• Sam Curran's repertoire includes a good variety of cutters and slowers. His bowling style can suit the wicket, and he might also be handy with the bat. Besides Curran, Arshdeep Singh could aslo be an important bowler on the Narendra Modi strip.

GT vs PBKS High Risk, High Reward

David Miller (GT)

2024 has been the worst year for David Miller in the T20 format. However, in the last game Miller found a bit of rhythm and he will be a good risk to take as C/VC for the game. 

Prabhsimran Singh (PBKS)

The yound Indian wicketkeeper batters is an impactful batter at the top of the order. Though he has not been at his best in IPL 2024, Prabhsimran Singh could be a decisive choice with his aggressive batting style. 

GT vs PBKS Stay Aways

Rahul Tewatia (GT)

The Indian lower-order batter has earned his reputation as a finisher after pulling off some heists in the IPL. However, he bats too lower down the order to impact the fantasy contests. Therefore, Tewatia can be kept for this game. 

Harshal Patel (PBKS)

This Indian medium-pacer has been thrashed in all the games. Harshal Patel's performance has been below average in this tournament and that makes him an obvious stay away for this game.
