JioHotstar in India will stream the IPL 2026 match between Gujarat Titans and Punjab Kings through their app and website
Gujarat Titans delivered a disciplined bowling effort to keep Punjab Kings to 163 for 9 in Match 46 of IPL 2026 at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad. After opting to bowl first, GT executed their plans effectively, picking wickets at regular intervals and never allowing PBKS to build sustained momentum. The total, while competitive, appears within reach on a surface that has offered assistance to seamers.
GT will now aim to chase down 164 in 20 overs as they look to register a third consecutive win and strengthen their playoff push. However, with conditions still aiding the pacers, PBKS will believe they have enough on the board to make it a contest.
Siraj’s early strikes rock PBKS
The innings began on a disastrous note for PBKS as Mohammed Siraj struck twice in the opening over. He removed Priyansh Arya for 2 and Cooper Connolly for a first-ball duck, putting immediate pressure on the batting side.
PBKS never quite recovered from the early setbacks, and their cautious approach in the powerplay saw them crawl to 35 for 3 — their lowest powerplay score of the season. Prabhsimran Singh’s brief stay ended for 15 after Kagiso Rabada joined the wicket-taking act.
Middle-order collapse deepens trouble
The situation worsened soon after the powerplay as Jason Holder struck immediately to dismiss Nehal Wadhera. In his following over, Holder removed PBKS skipper Shreyas Iyer for 19, leaving the side struggling at 47 for 5.
At that stage, PBKS were in danger of folding for a below-par total, with GT’s bowlers maintaining relentless pressure through tight lines and disciplined lengths.
Shedge–Stoinis partnership revives innings
A crucial recovery came through Suryansh Shedge and Marcus Stoinis, who added 79 runs for the sixth wicket. The partnership shifted momentum briefly, with Shedge playing an aggressive hand.
Shedge brought up his maiden IPL fifty in just 24 balls, counter-attacking the GT bowlers and lifting PBKS past the 100-run mark. Stoinis supported well, rotating strike and finding boundaries when needed.
Rabada and Holder close strongly
Just as PBKS looked set for a strong finish, Rabada returned to dismiss Shedge for 57, breaking the dangerous stand. Stoinis followed soon after for 40, falling to Holder, who then picked up Xavier Bartlett off the very next delivery to dent PBKS further.
Late contributions from Marco Jansen, who scored a quick 20, helped PBKS push their total past 160. However, his innings was cut short by Rashid Khan in the final stages.
Target set for Gujarat Titans
PBKS eventually finished on 163 for 9 in their 20 overs. While the total gives their bowlers something to defend, GT will back their batting lineup to chase it down and continue their winning momentum in IPL 2026.

The coin flip of the match went in GT's way who opted to bowl first.Captain's take after toss:Shubman Gill (GT): We are gonna bowl first. We have been chasing well in the past few games and our bowling is doing well, so will continue that momentum. We spoke about our middle order finishing the game and the way Rahul bhai did was amazing. There is something in it initially for the bowlers. It is all about peaking at the right time, we are doing that and I still our best game is yet to come. One change - Sandhu makes his debut.Shreyas Iyer (PBKS): It looks beautiful, some grass on the wicket and some bounce considering it is black soil. We have played on this before. Xavier comes in and Vyshak comes in in the bowling side, it is not frustration, it is an intense league, we have to travel and come up fresh in every game. It is just another game and we will put our best foot forward.IPL 2026 GT vs PBKS playing 11:GT playing 11: Sai Sudharsan, Shubman Gill (C), Jos Buttler (WK), Nishant Sindhu, Washington Sundar, Jason Holder, Rashid Khan, Arshad Khan, Kagiso Rabada, Mohammed Siraj, Manav SutharImpact players: Rahul Tewatia, Glenn Phillips, Anuj Rawat, Kumar Kushagra, Kulwant KejroliyaPBKS playing 11: Prabhsimran Singh (WK), Priyansh Arya, Cooper Connolly, Shreyas Iyer (C), Suryansh Shedge, Nehal Wadhera, Marcus Stoinis, Marco Jansen, Xavier Bartlett, Arshdeep Singh, Yuzvendra ChahalImpact players: Harpreet Brar, Vishnu Vinod, Vijaykumar Vyshak, Musheer Khan, Mitch Owen
