Shubman Gill
Gill has had a very poor start to his season as a skipper which has clearly taken a toll on his batting. Now Gujarat are tottering at number 8 in the points after 7 games, if Gujarat has to turn things, their skipper will have to be at his best with bats out there and dictate terms.
Liam Livingstone
Liam who has made his way back into the side will have to take the role of turning the table in the middle phase of the innings, he’s sandwiched between Jitesh Sharma and Sam Curran are two excellent spin hitters who will complement Liam with their skill sets.
Key Bowlers to Watch for PBKS vs GT:
Mohit Sharma
Sharma will be against two of the most destructive death hitters of the tournament. He will have to be aware of the lines he bowls to them, if he can Hit the deck hard he can make life difficult for them.
Spencer Johnson
Spencer will take up the new ball in pursuit of some swing and he will again be back to perform the death overs duty. If he’s able to perform his role with excellence he will surely help his side .
