PBKS vs GT Dream 11 Prediction, IPL 2024, Match 37: Punjab Kings vs Gujarat Titans playing XI, fantasy team today’s and squads

Preview 

The 37th game of IPL 2024 is a do-or-die match for two teams in the bottom three places in the table. Punjab Kings will take on Gujarat Titans in a huge game on Sunday evening with massive implications for both sides as far as qualifications for the next phase is concerned. 

Punjab Kings (PBKS) have been playing well in patches but haven’t been able to show consistency. This has led them to be placed 9th in the table despite their brilliant showing in the previous game against Mumbai Indians. 

Gujarat Titans (GT) are coming into the game on the back of a humiliating loss to Delhi Capitals. Shubman Gill’s side could score only 89 runs as they slumped to yet another loss in the season.

Top players for PBKS vs GT Dream 11 Match 

Top Players – Punjab Kings   

Shashank Singh – The 32-year-old has been one of the best batters for Punjab Kings with 157 runs from 7 games with an average of 52 so far. The right-handed batter has also hit one half-century which was the 61 not out against Gujarat Titans in the last encounter. 

Sam Curran – In the absence of Shikhar Dhawan, it is Sam Curran who has been leading the PBKS side. The 25-year-old has scored 132 runs so far with a best of 63 and also picked 10 wickets with the ball so far this season. 

Top Players – Gujarat Titans 

Shubman Gill – With Gujarat Titans struggling with the bat this season, skipper Shubman Gill has been one of the few positives with the bat. The 24-year-old has scored 263 runs so far this season with two half-centuries including the 89 not out against PBKS at Ahmedabad. 

Sai Sudharsan – 238 runs from 7 matches with an average of 34 has been the season that 23-year-old Sai Sudharsan has had so far. The youngster will want to keep scoring runs and ideally would love to score a big one for his team in the next few matches. 

PBKS vs GT Must Picks for Dream 11 Cricket 

Ashutosh Sharma – Indian cricket has found a new power-hitting talent in the form of Ashutosh Sharma. The 25-year-old served notice to the rest of the teams with his 61 runs in the game against MI. Ashutosh Sharma has scored 156 runs from four games so far with an average of 52 and one half-century. 

Rashid Khan – Gujarat Titans spearhead Rashid Khan has picked only 7 wickets so far this season. His biggest contribution so far has been the 24 not out against RR which helped GT win a game from an impossible position. Rashid Khan was the top scorer for the Titans in the game against DC with 31 runs that saved his team from an embarrassing score.

W Saha, J Sharma, S Gill, S Sudharsan, S Singh (C), A Sharma, S Curran, R Khan, K Rabada (VC), H Patel, H Brar

PBKS vs GT Risky Captaincy Choices 

Liam Livingstone – The English all-rounder hasn’t been able to deliver with the bat nor with the ball for PBKS this season. Despite his slow start to the season which also saw him suffering an injury, Liam Livingstone has enough talent to stage a comeback. 

David Miller – South African batting star David Miller has been quiet so far during IPL 2024. The veteran batter has been one of the biggest players for the Titans with his big-hitting skills. With Hardik Pandya no longer in the picture, the onus will be on David Miller to deliver the goods for his side. 

Players you should avoid 

Arshdeep Singh – IPL 2024 has come up with mixed-bag results for Arshdeep Singh with 9 wickets this season. Four of those came in a single game against SRH in an otherwise quiet season. Rohit Sharma took a liking to Arshdeep Singh in the last game as the left-arm pacer was hit for 35 runs from 3 overs. 

Mohit Sharma – The veteran pacer from Gujarat Titans began the IPL 2024 season well. Throughout the last few games, Mohit Sharma has lost his form and he has been one of the most expensive bowlers in the league.
