Shubman Gill vs Arshdeep Singh
It will be an interesting battle between Shubman Gill and Arshdeep Singh in this match. Gill is in top form this season with 373 runs in 9 games and has an excellent record at Narendra Modi Stadium.
On the other hand, Arshdeep is the main weapon for Punjab Kings with the new ball, as he can swing it both ways and trouble batters early. However, Arshdeep has taken 8 wickets from 8 matches so far and has been so expensive in the recent games, but he has everything to make the most of Ahmedabad's condition to stop Gill at the top.
Shreyas Iyer vs Kagiso Rabada
Shreyas Iyer and Kagiso Rabada are set for a big battle in Ahmedabad. Iyer has been leading the Punjab Kings from the front and holding the middle order together with 309 runs in 8 matches at an amazing average of 61.80 and strike rate of nearly 175.
But Rabada has been in top form for Gujarat Titans, picking up 14 wickets this season so far. The GT pacer has already troubled Iyer with his extra pace and bounce. So, it will be interesting to see if Iyer takes on Rabada or the pacer gets the better of PBKS skipper.
Prabhsimran Singh vs Mohammed Siraj
The battle between Prabhsimran Singh and Mohammed Siraj will set the tone for the match. Prabhsimran has been in red-hot form, scoring 346 runs in 8 matches for PBKS. He provides explosive starts to his team, but Siraj will be a big challenge for the opener. The GT fast bowler is known for getting movement off the pitch and troubling top-order batters with his aggressive bowling. The Ahmedabad pitch can help him with early bounce and swing, so it will be a thrilling battle to see whether Prabhsimran attacks Siraj from ball one.
