Gujarat Titans (GT) are set to host the Punjab Kings (PBKS) in match number 17 of the TATA IPL 2024 season at the Narendra Modi stadium in Ahmedabad on the evening OF April 4, Thursday.
The Titans faced a formidable Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) team in their most recent encounter, winning the game by a comfortable 7-wicket margin with 5 balls to spare. Shubhman Gill’s team are currently placed fifth in the table with two wins in three games and 4 points to their name.
Meanwhile, PBKS lost their most recent match to KL Rahul’s Lucknow Super Giants (LSG). PBKS had a good start with 200 on the board to chase, but young Mayank Yadav’s blistering pace and movement on the ball did the damage for the Punjab Kings as he took three important wickets and took his team over the line. They are now placed eighth in the table with just a single win in three games.
