The Narendra Modi Stadium will host the fifth match of IPL 2025 on March 25, as Gujarat Titans (GT) take on Punjab Kings (PBKS). Both teams, eager to improv🌜e on their disappointing 2024 seasons, are looking to start strong.
GT, aiming to recapture their early success, has bolstered their squad w🍰ith Jos Buttler, Mohammed Siraj and Kagiso Rabada, comple🎐menting their core players. However, their reliance on top-order batting remains a potential vulnerability.
PBKS, under new captain Shreyas Iyer and head coach Ricky Ponting, are seeking a fresh start. Their revamped squad, featuring Glenn Maxwell and Marcus Stoinis, boasts a powerful batting lineup. Their bowling attack, led by Arshdeep Singh and Yuzvendra Chahal, will be crucial in containing GT’s explosive batters.

Narendra Modi Stadium Pitch Report:
The Narendra Modi Stadium is famous for its batting-friendly conditions, often producing high-scoring games. With an average first🅺-innings score of 160, the pitch provides good bounce. Pacers maဣy get initial movement but ultimately lose steam, while spinners are even more effective once the surface slows towards the latter half of the game. The hard and dry nature of the pitch promotes a even contest between the bowlers and the batters.
Captain winning the toss wiℱll look to bat first, given the fact that the pitch slows down in the second innings of the match.
