Here we look at the 3 player battles between Punjab Kings and Gujarat Titans in match 37 of IPL 2024.
- Shubman Gill vs Kagiso Rabada
Shubman Gill had a good outing when these two teams met in Ahmedabad. GT captain played a captain’s knock with an unbeaten 89 that helped GT post 199 for 5. On the other hand, Rabada took the wicket of Ishan Kishan but was smashed by other MI batters. He went for 42 runs in his 4 overs which did not help PBKS cause.
Gill disappointed being dismissed cheaply against Delhi Capitals. It promises to be another good battle in the first six overs. Both players would do anything to help their franchise return to winning ways.
- Shashank Singh vs Rashid Khan
Shashank Singh proved his worth with another superb knock against Mumbai Indians when PBKS looked in deep trouble. The stylish batter would be a massive threat for Gujarat Titans during the match.
Shashank Singh played superb knock with 61 off 29 balls that helped PBKS win from a tough situation and won the match by 3 wickets. On the other hand, Rashid Khan has not been in great form for GT.
The Indian player was lethal against Rashid Khan when these two teams met. Rashid Khan would be hopeful that he could pick his wicket and not go for runs.
- Liam Livingstone vs Noor Ahmad
Liam Livingstone failed to contribute much in the previous match against Mumbai Indians. He has not been consistent enough with bat. On the other hand, Noor Ahmad would be a handful against Livingstone.
Noor Ahmad would be hoping for a good contest with Livingstone. The Afghan leg spinner dismissed twice from 5 balls he has bowled to him so far. It will be an interesting battle in middle overs which might decide the fate of the game.
