punjab kings but take Gujarat Titans In match 4 In the ongoing 2026 season of the Indian Premier League Maharaja Yadvendra Singh International Cricket Stadium In New Chandigarh But Monday, March 31.
PBKS came into 2026 on the back of a stellar season in 2025, where they finished as runners-up after losing to Royal Challengers Bangalore in the final. They were one of the most dominant teams in the league and finished first in the league stage. They will look to win their first major title in 2026, with a solid team to support them.
GT had a strong season in 2025, including their third playoff finish in four seasons. Relying heavily on a strong top three of Sai Sudarshan, Shubman Gill and Jos Buttler as well as a balanced bowling attack, they finished third on the points table before losing to Mumbai Indians in the eliminator.
Maharaja Yadvendra Singh International Cricket Stadium: Pitch Report
The pitch has traditionally been batting friendly, with teams winning the toss preferring to chase. The outfield is fast, the ball runs towards the boundaries. A wicket where there is dew effect helps the fast bowlers in the beginning and also gives some grip to the spinners. With the bowlers on offer, it is relevant that more teams have won while batting first in New Chandigarh.

PBKS vs GT: Points of Discussion
Both the teams have very strong bowling attacks, but GT's middle order is a subject of discussion due to lack of reliable options. Another thing to note is the form of Jos Buttler, whose performance in the T20 World Cup was disappointing. His role at number three was crucial for the Titans, and if his lackluster performance continues, it spells trouble for GT. The teams have faced each other six times and have won three games each.
