New-age Punjab take on old-school Gujarat Titans

In their earlier recreation, PBKS did not defend 222 in opposition to Rajasthan Royals. Arshdeep Singh’s figures (1 for 68), particularly, revealed the broad gulf between their batting benefit and their bowling woes. On the opposite hand, GT showcased their bowling depth in opposition to Royal Challengers Bengaluru. While Rabada and Siraj went for runs, Rashid Khan, Arshad Khan and Jason Holder picked up seven wickets between them. Then within the chase, Rahul Tewatia walked out bereft of runs and batting time this season, like the remainder of GT’s center order. I’ve completed off the sport with a nerveless 27 not out off 17 balls.

Momentum is a fickle consolation in an IPL season. Still, GT is aware of their back-to-back wins maintain them in good stead. If they win huge in opposition to PBKS, they may breach the highest 4 on the factors desk. Meanwhile, PBKS want simply two extra wins from six remaining video games to cross the 16-point mark, usually adequate for a playoff spot.

Two distinct T20 philosophies will conflict in Ahmedabad on Sunday night. The two factors up for grabs will matter greater than how both crew will get them.
