GT vs PBKS: GT are on top of their game and have all but sealed their spot in the playoffs. A win here will help them cement a spot in the playoffs further and can also help them get closer to a top-two spot, leaving them in a commanding position. They are doing a wonderful job, finding heroes each game, and have already had new man-of-the-match award winners in each win of theirs.
The Punjab Kings are struggling for consistency. They batted well and then handled pressure nicely to defend a score against the Chennai Super Kings, but when facing a more potent attack in LSG, the batting line-up struggled. They crumbled in the run chase as PBKS fell short by 20 runs, leaving PBKS in a sticky spot on the points table.
Match: GT vs PBKS
Date: 3rd March 2022
Time: 7:30 PM IST
Venue: DY Patil Stadium, Navi Mumbai
The weather is clear with no chance of rain throughout the GT vs PBKS game.
The DY Patil Stadium is helping spinners and slower bowlers as batting in the second innings are starting to get tougher. Batting first, putting runs on the board, and defending is a better option despite the potential dew factor.
Shubman Gill, Wriddhiman Saha (wk), Hardik Pandya (capt), David Miller, Rahul Tewatia, Abhinav Manohar, Rashid Khan, Alzarri Joseph, Lockie Ferguson, Mohammed Shami, Yash Dayal
Mayank Agarwal (capt), Shikhar Dhawan, Jonny Bairstow, Bhanuka Rajapaksa, Liam Livingstone, Jitesh Sharma (wk), Rishi Dhawan, Sandeep Sharma, Kagiso Rabada, Rahul Chahar, Arshdeep Singh
Both teams are likely to remain unchanged
Rahul Tewatia
Before Sharjah, Rahul Tewatia was seen as a player who could bat a bit and bowl a couple of overs. This season though, Tewatia has become a seasoned finisher, helping GT win two games from tough situations and is making the batting line-up look very deep. With his ability to win from tough and unlikely situations, Tewatia is coming out very strong this season.

Mayank Agarwal
The PBKS batting line-up is having a tough time with consistency. They are going too big to early and that has to lead to some low scores with a shaky middle-order. With more hitters and few accumulators in the side, Mayank Agarwal may need to step up, bat responsibility, and ensure the hitters come in when the time is right rather than too early in the innings.
GT is looking very strong and comes into the game with a huge advantage given their superior bowling and batting. PBKS on the other hand are struggling with inconsistency and will have to play out of their skins to beat a strong Gujarat side.
Match Prediction: GT will win the match.
