Gujarat finished two points behind playoff spots last year, but at the eighth spot. Punjab finished two points further behind Gujarat and one spot lower, and there are no prizes for guessing that both teams hope for a good start. I am not putting my money in the win market but instead backing the aggressive unit of Punjab to score the most 6s of the match.

Gujarat conceded the most 6s in 10 of their last 11 IPL matches.
Gujarat also conceded the most 6s in 4 of their last 5 home IPL matches.
Punjab hit the most 6s in 6 of their last 9 matches from the previous season.
Punjab hit the most 6s in all five H2Hs against Gujarat.

Head to Head

There have been five matches between the Titans and the Kings so far in the history of the IPL. Gujarat Titans have three wins, while Punjab have two wins to their credit.

Last season, the teams shared the wins, each winning at their away venue. Punjab won by three wickets at this venue, while Gujarat returned the favour with the same margin in Mullanpur.

Gujarat Titans Form

The Titans finished last season in 8th spot with 12 points. Although they were only two points away from a playoff berth, Gujarat were never in the running. They had two wins out of two at home but followed it up with three successive defeats.

Interesting additions in the off-season include Jos Buttler, Kagiso Rabada, Prasidh Krishna, and Mohammed Siraj. The presence of Glenn Phillips in the middle order is a bonus.

Gujarat have a lot of depth in fast bowling, but their spin stocks are still revolving around Rashid Khan alone.

Buttler, Rashid, Rabada, and Phillips are likely to be the overseas quota for the Titans.

Punjab Kings Form

Punjab finished last season with ten points and only two above the bottom. They haven’t made it to the playoffs since 2014 and start this season with a 17th different captain in IPL history.

Shreyas Iyer will have his task cut out, along with new coach Ricky Ponting. Auction has helped them cover most bases, as the likes of Josh Inglis, Glenn Maxwell, Marco Jansen, and Arshdeep Singh add depth to the squad.

If Punjab can find the right combination, they certainly have a squad that can push for a top-four finish.

Inglis, Maxwell, Jansen, and Azmatullah Omarzai are likely to be the foreign selections for Punjab.

Verdict

Gujarat Titans v Punjab Kings - T20

Punjab once again starts a new IPL season under a different captain and with a lot of hopes. As they search for a mantra to change their fortunes, it is their impressive striking ability that captures my attention. I am backing them to score the most 6s in this match.
