Key Player Battles from GT vs PBKS, Match 5 of IPL 2025
3. Shubman Gill vs Yuzvendra Chahal
Shubman Gill is one of the top batters from this GT side and will also be opening the batting. His biggest challenge will be to counter the spin, as he has had his issues with the leg-spinners in the past as well.
Chahal, meanwhile, has an excellent record against the Gujarat Titans’ opener, picking up his wicket three times while Gill has managed just 62 runs in 51 balls at a strike rate of 121. This will be an exciting battle between these two players.
