GT vs PBKS Top Fantasy Picks
Top Batting Picks
- Shreyas Iyer (PBKS): 397 runs in 10 matches at 66.17 Avg and 180.45 SR — the tournament’s most efficient captain-batter by average in the top 10 run-scorers. Non-negotiable SL captain pick and the highest-floor batting choice in this fixture.
- Prabhsimran Singh (PBKS): 378 runs in 10 matches at 47.25 Avg and 168.75 SR — PBKS’s most consistent opener and a proven big-innings threat at the top. Must-pick across all formats.
- Sai Sudharsan (GT): 443 runs in 10 matches at 44.3 Avg and 161.67 SR — GT’s most reliable bat and the best fantasy floor from the home side. Safe SL batting pick alongside Gill.
- Shubman Gill (GT): 344 runs in 9 matches at 38.22 Avg and 147.63 SR — GT captain and leading run-scorer at Narendra Modi Stadium in IPL history (1,243 runs). His home record makes him a strong GL differential despite a modest SR.
Top Bowling Picks
- Prasidh Krishna (GT): 16 wickets in 9 matches at SR 12.75 and 10.12 Econ — GT’s leading wicket-taker in IPL 2026 and the most consistent bowling fantasy returner in this fixture. Lock him as bowling captain or VC across all formats.
- Kagiso Rabada (GT): 13 wickets in 8 matches at SR 14.3 and 9.48 Econ — GT’s second-highest wicket-taker and one of the most dangerous pace bowlers on a surface that strongly rewards pace (164 fantasy pts in first innings). Best pace bowling GL differential.
- Arshdeep Singh (PBKS): 11 wickets in 10 matches at SR 20.72 and 10.87 Econ — PBKS’s powerplay enforcer. Strike rate is lower than Prasidh and Rabada, but his death-overs skill set makes him a solid GL pick when PBKS bowl second.
- Yuzvendra Chahal (PBKS): 9 wickets in 9 matches at SR 22.0 and 9.61 Econ — spin gets limited support on this ground (only 89 fantasy pts vs 164 for pace), but Chahal’s experience and guile make him a low-ownership GL differential on a flat surface where he can surprise.

Pitch Report — Narendra Modi Stadium, Ahmedabad
Narendra Modi Stadium is one of T20 cricket’s most batter-friendly venues. Red-soil pitches offer true bounce, easy ball-striking in all directions, and consistently high scoring — the last 10 T20s here have averaged 201 runs in the first innings. Teams batting first have won 70% of matches at this ground in the last 10 T20s, though slight dew in early May evenings gives a marginal edge to the chasing side late in the game. Pace bowlers are heavily rewarded (164 fantasy pts vs just 89 for spin in the first innings), making Prasidh Krishna and Rabada the clear bowling anchors in any fantasy build at this venue.

Expert Fantasy Tips for GT vs PBKS Match
- Iyer in SL, Prabhsimran as GL captain — Iyer’s 66.17 Avg makes him the safest SL captain. Prabhsimran (378 runs, 168.75 SR) offers the higher GL ceiling if PBKS bat first.
- Prasidh Krishna is your bowling lock — 16 wickets in 9 matches, GT’s most reliable fantasy asset. Back him as bowling VC across all formats without question.
- Priyansh Arya is your GL differential — 283 runs at SR 250.44 in just 7 matches. High-risk, high-reward; GL only for his explosive ceiling.
- Avoid Chahal in SL — spin gets just 89 fantasy pts vs 164 for pace at this venue. Chahal is a GL-only pick here.
GT vs PBKS D11 Prediction
PBKS hold the edge — better form, a 3-2 head-to-head advantage in the last five, and Shreyas Iyer in career-best touch. GT push back with home advantage, Gill’s unmatched record at this ground, and a Prasidh-Rabada pace combination that is among IPL 2026’s most potent.
gt vs pbks dream11 team prediction: Iyer and Prabhsimran as dual batting anchors. Prasidh Krishna as bowling core regardless of toss. Sudharsan as your GT batting representative. In GL, use Prabhsimran as captain and Rabada as your highest-upside bowling pick.
