Pitch Report:
The Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad has produced tracks which are slightly slower, giving a slight edge to the bowlers. Despite the two-paced nature of the venue, batters need to spend some time in the middle which will give them a better chance to score runs. This venue has also heavily favoured teams batting first, with chasing totals being difficult.
Team Analysis:
Gujarat Titans
Despite losing crucial players, the Gujarat Titans have managed to continue their dominant form in the 2024 season. The GT batting may be a slight issue with Shubman Gill failing to find form and youngster Sai Sudharshan being the lynchpin with the bat. But their bowling has been one of the best with Mohit Sharma and Rashid Khan being in stellar form across each phase of the game,

Punjab Kings
On the other hand, the Punjab Kings have looked decent in the 2024 season with one win and one loss. The PBKS top-order hasn’t fired well with only one of the top three batters stepping up to score runs. But Sam Curran’s stunning form has been a huge positive for the Kings. But their bowling still seems like an issue with their spinners failing to pick up wickets and allowing teams to score runs in the middle overs.
