The 48th match of IPL 2022 between Gujarat Titans and Punjab King will be played on Tuesday, 3 May 2022 at The Dr. DY Patil Sports Academy, Mumbai. The match will start at 07:30 PM local time.

GT had played in IPL like a fully professional team. They had been just superb in almost each and every department of the game. The bowling department of Gujarat had been just outstanding. Mohammad Shami, Lockie Ferguson, Rashid Khan, Alzarri Joseph, and Pradeep Sangwan are leading the bowling department of GT and we don’t think that they need to make some changes in the bowling department. Sangwan was the most successful bowler in the previous match against RCB with two wickets to his name in four overs against just 19 runs. Rashid Khan picked one wicket in four overs while he was charged for 29 runs. Lockie Ferguson, Mohammad Shami, and Alzarri Joseph were the other bowlers who picked one wicket each. Alzarri Joseph was the most expensive bowler who leaked 42 runs in four overs. Gujarat has some best bowlers in the bench strength but we don’t think that they should make any changes in the bowling department.

Punjab had not been as impressive in IPL 2022 as many of us were expecting. They are struggling with the batting and bowling departments. Especially the batting order of PBKS had been under pressure in IPL 2022. The bowling department of Punjab was good in the previous match against Lucknow but they lost the match due to the worst batting performance. Arshdeep Singh, Rahul Chahar, Liam Livingstone, Rishi Dhawan, Sandeep Sharma, and Kagiso Rabada are leading the bowling department. They also have some good bowlers on the bench strength and we think that they should use it. They still have chances to qualify for the playoff but for that, they need to give an extraordinary performance in each department of the game. Rabada was the most successful bowler in the previous match with four wickets to his name in four overs against 38 runs. Rahul Chahar was the other bowler who performed well and picked two wickets in four overs while he was charged for 30 runs.

Gujarat had played one match against Punjab where they had beaten PBKS.

Gujarat Titans is a strong and well-balanced team and have a strong batting and bowling department which is in good form. The batting and bowling squad of this team is much stronger at least on papers. According to today prediction, Gujarat Titans is the favorite team who will win this match. There are many factors that make Gujarat Titans a favorite team to win this match. Some of the key factors are mentioned as under:

• GT is overall a strong team when we compare it with Punjab
• Gujarat had already beaten PBKS in IPL 2022
• The bowling department of Gujarat is in good form
• The batting order of Punjab is struggling

Gujarat Titans is overall a strong team when we compare with Punjab Kings. They have the best players in the t20 format of cricket. The batting order of this team is also strong and some well-known hitters of the t20 format are part of the squad of this team, so the winning chances of today’s match for Gujarat Titans have been increased. The equation of who will win today’s cricket match prediction and who will win the cricket match today is mentioned as under.

Gujarat Titans have a 58% chance to win this match
Punjab Kings have a 42% chance to win this match

The toss is going to play an important in the result of each and every match of IPL 2022 as we had observed in the previous matches. According to toss prediction, the team who will win the toss will elect to field first as defending had been difficult in the most recent matches of IPL.

The 48th match of IPL T20, 2022 is going to be held at the Dr. DY Patil Sports Academy, Mumbai. We had observed in the previous matches played here that the pitch here at this venue is good for batting in early overs. The track has a good amount of pace and bounce which allows the batsmen to the good cricketing shorts but this ground also have big boundaries which can be a plus point for the bowlers. A score of 190 plus seems to be a par score.

The weather forecast for Mumbai is good for this cricket match. There are almost no chances of rain in the region and we are hopeful that we will have a full match to enjoy.
