Topmost Picks for PBKS vs GT Dream11 Prediction:

Top Picks – Punjab Kings

• Prabhsimran Singh- Prabhsimran Singh will be one of the mainstays of the PBKS lineup in the absence of Shikhar Dhawan.
• Kagiso Rabada- Rabada has been one of the bright spots for PBKS. He has taken 10 wickets in seven games for the team; however, he has lacked support from the other end.

Top Picks – Gujarat Titans

• Shubman Gill – Shubman Gill has not been at his best in IPL 2024 but he has played a couple of decent innings, including a 72 run knock against the Rajasthan Royals.
• Rashid Khan –  Rashid Khan once again proved his match winning skills as he scored 24 in 11 balls to help GT chase 197 from a near impossible situation against RR. Rashid also bowled a top spell of 1-18 in four overs.

Suggested Playing XI N0.1 for PBKS vs GT Dream11 Team:

Wriddhiman Saha, Sai Sudharsan, Shubman Gill, Jitesh Sharma, Shashank Singh, Sam Curran(C), Rahul Tewatia, Rashid Khan(VC), Harshal Patel, Kagiso Rabada, Arshdeep Singh

Suggested Playing XI N0.2 for PBKS vs GT Dream11 Team:

Wriddhiman Saha, Sai Sudharsan, Shubman Gill(C), David Miller, Shashank Singh(VC), Sam Curran, Rahul Tewatia, Rashid Khan, Mohit Sharma, Kagiso Rabada, Arshdeep Singh

Captain and Vice-Captain Options:

Captain – Sam Curran, Shubman Gill

Vice-captain – Rashid Khan, Shashank Singh

Wicketkeeper – Wriddhiman Saha

PBKS vs GT Probable Winners:

We believe Gujarat Titans will win. The Shubman Gill-led side has not played their best cricket, but they are far superior to PBKS, who have also performed poorly. For PBKS, only Shashank Singh and Ashutosh Sharma have performed well with the bat, while Kagiso Rabada has done well with the ball. You can’t win games if only three players are performing well. This is one of the primary reasons why PBKS has failed to cross the finish line despite coming close in numerous games. For us, GT are the favorites to win. Considering the team combination, Gujarat Titans are expected to win this match.
