GT vs PBKS Weather Report Live Today And Pitch Report Of Narendra Modi Stadium, Ahmedabad– IPL 2024, Match 17

Ahmedabad is all set to host the GT vs PBKS IPL 2024 match on Thursday, April 4. The match will be played at the Narendra Modi Stadium from 7.30 pm IST. This is already the third home game for the Gujarat Titans.

The Titans started their campaign with a win against Mumbai Indians. They lost their next game against CSK and came back to winning ways against Sunrisers Hyderabad. Against SRH they chased down 163 and won the game with five balls to spare. Sai Sudharsan and David Miller backed up the good work done by Mohit Sharma and Co.

Punjab Kings started with a win against Delhi Capitals but then lost their next two against RCB and Lucknow Super Giants. They failed to defend 177 against Bangalore and could not chase down 200 against KL Rahul’s LSG.

The over-dependence on Shikhar Dhawan with the bat is fairly visible. The rest of the batters have not been able to make the most of the opportunities so far yet. With the ball, Kagiso Rabada is short of wickets as is Ardhseep Singh. The duo needs to hit their straps fairly quickly. Harshal Patel too has not been pinpoint accurate at the death. The spin attack looks weak with Rahul Chahar not being able to deliver.

The only concern for Gujarat Titans is Shubman Gill not scoring a fifty-plus score in the season so far. He has scored 76 runs with a best of 36 in the first two games. The bowling attack has been rock solid with Mohit Sharma already picking up six wickets from the first three games. The rest of the bowlers have played their part as well as it has been a cumulative effort by the GT bowlers.
