It will be beneficial to include Shikhar Dhawan, Shubman Gill and Bhanuka Rajapakse in Fantasy-11. Gabbar, who has scored 5,876 runs at an average of 127 in 195 IPL matches, can play a significant role in today’s match. In the initial matches, he has been in touch but has failed to convert his innings in a big score.
Shubman Gill played a blistering innings of 84 runs in 46 balls against DC. Again, he could be the man in form for Gujarat Titans. Gill has all those shots to trouble Punjab Kings bowling attack.
Bhanuka Rajapaksa started the season with an innings of 43 runs against RCB at a strike rate of 195. Then the hangover of the stormy innings of 31 runs against KKR in 9 balls has still not gone down from the hearts and minds of the fans. Unfortunately, he lost his wicket in the third match due to miscommunication.
In today’s match, Hardik Pandya can also start with a bang. He bowls, he bats as well as he is exceptional in the field. Thus, he should be part of playing 11.
Liam Livingstone smeared a 108 meters six against Chennai. He likes pace and certainly Gujarat Titans have strong pace attack that could be go against them. Also, Liam Livingstone is an all rounder so he will be seen throwing a couple of overs in the middle overs.
