The fifth Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025 match between Gujarat Titans (GT) and Punjab Kings (PBKS) is scheduled for Tuesday at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad. After winning the IPL championship in their first season, GT had a fantastic start in 2022. GT came in second in 2023, but their 2024 eighth-place result spoiled it all. In 2024, PBKS also had a poor season, winning only five of their 14 games and finishing ninth in the standings. Under Shreyas Iyer’s leadership, they’re hoping for a change in luck. With Shubman Gill’s leadership, GT would be hoping for a successful start at home to build on their success from the previous two seasons.
GT Vs PKBS: Head To Head Records
The Gujarat Titans and Punjab Kings have already faced each other five times in the IPL. The Gujarat Titans have won three of these encounters, giving them a slight lead in their head-to-head record. The Punjab Kings have shown their ability to put up a strong defense against the Titans by winning two games.
Ahmedabad’s pitch is well known for being a batter’s paradise, offering ideal conditions for games with lots of runs. In the 36 IPL matches played at Narendra Modi Stadium, teams that bat second have a clear advantage. Teams that set a target won only 15 of these games, while teams that chased won 20. One game ended with no outcome. According to this pattern, the team that wins the toss will most likely decide to bowl first in order to take advantage of the favorable chasing conditions.
