GT Vs PBKS Match Prediction: The 19th edition of the Indian Premier League, the world’s most popular franchise cricket league, will be held in 2026. IPL 2026 will feature 10 teams competing for the world’s most prestigious franchise cricket competition trophy.
The Gujarat Titans, despite being one of the league’s newest teams, have been quite successful. Introduced as part of a league expansion in 2022, they won the title on their first try. Since then, they have consistently made the playoffs, including in 2025, where they looked dominant for much of the season before losing steam towards the end and losing the Eliminator to the Mumbai Indians.
The Gujarat Titans, despite decent performances, have had a poor start to this season. The Punjab Kings defeated them in their opening game. Then, in their second, they were beaten by the Rajasthan Royals in a thriller. They then won a game on the last ball against the Delhi Capitals. They then thrashed the Lucknow Super Giants in their next game and beat the Kolkata Knight Riders. Most recently, they lost two games in a row to the Mumbai Indians and the Royal Challengers Bengaluru.
Then came two wins in a row. First against the Chennai Super Kings, then one over the Royal Challengers Bengaluru. With five wins, four losses, 10 points, and a negative net run rate, Gujarat is currently fifth on the points table.
Meanwhile, the Punjab Kings are one of only three teams in the IPL to have never won the league, and one of two that have been here for the whole time. The Punjab Kings have, for much of their history, been a fodder team in the league, with a few playoff appearances under their belt. However, in 2025, they topped the league and reached the final, where they lost to the Royal Challengers Bengaluru.
The Punjab Kings have gotten off to a fine start to their season. They defeated the Gujarat Titans in their opening game, then defeated the Chennai Super Kings in style. Their third game against the Kolkata Knight Riders was washed out, after which they won against the Sunrisers Hyderabad. They remained undefeated after beating the Mumbai Indians, then beat the Lucknow Super Giants.
They then won against the Delhi Capitals in record fashion, completing the highest IPL chase ever, before losing their first match this season to the Rajasthan Royals. With six wins, one loss, one no result, 13 points, and the best net run rate in the league, Punjab is currently eighth on the points table.

GT Vs PBKS Match 46 IPL 2026 Narendra Modi Stadium Pitch Report
The Narendra Modi Stadium is considered a haven for batters. It is the batsman who rules the roost here. As most pitches in this ground are made out of red soil, the ball gets a lot of bounce after pitching, a bounce that is even. This results in the ball coming onto the bat quite nicely. The bounce also ensures that pace bowlers can try to create something here. While there is not much lateral movement here, the fast bowlers can use the bounce to surprise the batters and take wickets. The square boundaries here are about mid-60s metres in length, while the straight boundaries go as far as 78m away from the batters.
GT Vs PBKS Match 46 Weather Forecast
It will be a warm evening in Ahmedabad on match day. The temperatures will hover around the 30 degrees Celsius mark. The skies will be clear with no chance of rain. The winds will be weak on this day, and so will be the humidity.
