PBKS vs GT: Match Details

• Date – Friday, April 08, 2022
• Time – 7:30 PM IST 
• Venue – Brabourne Stadium, Mumbai

PBKS vs GT Match Preview:

Punjab Kings have a terrific batting lineup with many power hitters. They have a good headache where the management has to fit in Jonny Bairstow into the playing XI, which looks very settled. There is a case of Odean Smith sacrificing his spot to make way for a better dynamic batter but it will be a tough call to make. 

Vaibhav Arora had a great last game, where he was specifically added to the playing XI to exploit movement with the new ball, and he did that to perfection. Rahul Chahar could be the game-changer. 

Gujarat's batting isn't the strongest but it has players who can single-handedly take the game away from the opposition; Shubman Gill was the player in the last game. 

Hardik Pandya the allrounder will play a crucial role in both innings. Yash Dayal could make his debut if Varun Aaron isn't fit. Watch out for Lockie Ferguson.
