GT vs PBKS: Top Three Players You Can Pick As Captain:
Shubman Gill
Shubman Gill is having a fantastic tournament as a captain but his bat seems upset with him as he is hardly looking the old way. Shubman as a player has the reputation of scoring big runs after getting set but in the first three matches, a well swt Gill has thrown his wicket. He would be looking to score big runs making him an ideal choice for captaincy.
Shikhar Dhawan
The PBKS captain is making consistent runs at a great strike rate but he is turning out to be a lone wolf as after his wicket PBKA collapses. Dhawan has scored 137 runs in 3 innings, he would be hoping to come good at this stadium too making him a good choice for captaincy.
Mohit Sharma
Mohit Sharma‘s golden touch has continued from 2023 to 2024.He has been bowling the difficult overs in the death and yet getting better off the reputed power hitters of the world. Mohit will be a trump card in this game too making him a captaincy choice.
GT vs PBKS: Top Three Players You Can Pick As Vice-Captain
Rashid Khan
Rashid Khan has been the key bowler dismissing the dangerous Klaasen and helping GT restrict SRH to a mere 162 runs. Rashid would be looking to better his performance from the last game. He is a good choice for vice-captain.
Jonny Bairstow
Jonny Bairstow was finally back in form scoring 42 of just 29 balls building a solid partnership with Dhawan giving Punjab the needed start. This surface will suit his batting and can be a great pick for vice-captain.
Sam Curran
Other than Punjab Openers the only player performing for them magnificently is none other than their million-dollar boy Sam Curran. He gave a man-of-the-match performance in their only win. Last match too he took three key wickets giving just 28 runs to his name. He is a perfect choice for vice-captain considering his form.
