Ahmedabad, May 2 Gujarat Titans (GT) will host Punjab Kings (PBKS) in Match 46 of India Premier League (IPL) 2026 at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad on Sunday with both sides eyeing crucial points as the league stage intensifies.
GT enters this match in a fifth-place position after winning 5 of 9 games. The Titans are confident after winning their last two games, having gained some momentum at the end of their season. The Titans want to build off of this momentum while trying to get revenge for their previous loss to PBKS earlier in the season.
PBKS has been the top team this season. Currently, they lead the table with 6 wins from 8 games. PBKS has shown incredible consistency in both batting and bowling.
Despite losing last time there were heavy favourites to win this contest again, and they will want to rebuild and get their 7th win this season to establish their dominance atop the table.
Looking at the head-to-head meetings between the two teams, PBKS leads with 4 victories, while GT has 3 victories out of 7 total meetings between the two sides.
As GT tries to continue their resurgent play and PBKS tries to re-establish their dominance, this match in Ahmedabad should be an exciting matchup between two evenly matched teams who have had very different trends recently.
