The Gujarat Titans (GT) will look to continue their impressive run when they face the Punjab Kings (PBKS) in Match 48 of the 2022 Indian Premier League (IPL) at the DY Patil Stadium in Navi Mumbai on Tuesday. When the tournament began, Punjab were seen as one of the strong contenders to make the playoffs while there was uncertainty over how Gujarat would fare in their debut season.

More than halfway into the edition, the script has played out in quite an unexpected manner. GT are leading the IPL 2022 points table, having won eight of their nine matches. PBKS are in serious danger of elimination, having won only four of their nine games. On form and confidence, Gujarat will go into the match as favorites. However, if Punjab perform to their potential, there is no reason why they shouldn’t give the table-toppers a tough fight.

When the two sides met during the first half of the tournament, PBKS suffered heartbreak as Rahul Tewatia slammed the last two balls of the match from Odean Smith for sixes. Punjab will hope for a change in fortunes this time.
