Gujarat Titans will square off against Punjab Kings at the Narendra Modi Stadium, Ahmedabad on Thursday in the 17th match of the ongoing IPL 2024. GT has won two out of their three games whereas PBKS has managed a solitary win in three matches.
Shikhar Dhawan has scored 137 runs in three matches for PBKS but their middle order hasn’t come up with consistent performances. Dhawan will want his team to come up with a collective effort.
