It will be a crucial game for Gujarat Titans (GT) and Punjab Kings (PBKS) when the two sides take on each other in match 46 of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2026 on Sunday, May 3 at Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad.
PBKS are currently sitting at the top of the points table with 13 points, and a win vs GT will almost confirm their top-four finish. On the other hand, GT will be hoping to improve their playoff chances by winning their sixth game of the season.
In terms of team combination, GT are unlikely to tinker with their playing 11 unless it is a forced change, as they are coming off a two-match winning streak. Their top order is performing brilliantly, and the bowlers are making things tough for opposition batters. However, the form of their middle order will still be a concern for them.
Meanwhile, PBKS, despite suffering their first loss of the season in the last game, are also unlikely to make many changes to their squad, given they are table-toppers with the same side. For the Shreyas Iyer-led side, the inconsistency of the bowlers will be an issue, as while they have chased down big 200-plus totals this season, they have also been consistently under pressure while defending.
