Gujarat Titans (GT) welcome Punjab Kings (PBKS) in match 46 of Indian Premier League (IPL) 2026 at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad on Sunday (May 3).

The Kings are in rip-roaring form, atop the standings with 13 points from eight games and just one defeat so far which came in the previous outing against Rajasthan Royals. As for the Titans, they lie fifth with 10 points from nine matches, and have notched up back-to-back wins after consecutive losses.

The two franchises have had contrasting approaches in their respective campaigns, given their team dynamics. GT have a strong, well balanced bowling line-up but their batting relies a bit too much on top-order stars Jos Buttler, Sai Sudharsan and Shubman Gill.

PBKS, meanwhile have a redoubtable batting roster with tremendous depth as well, but their bowling is not as dependable as the Kings would want it to be. The Shreyas Iyer-led team could not defend a 222-run total versus the Royals, and would need to be wary of GT's top three threat.
