The 18th game of IPL 2023 will be played between Punjab Kings and Gujarat Titans at the IS Bindra Stadium, Mohali. Both the teams have had a similar start to their IPL 2023 campaign.
Gujarat Titans have won two of their three matches, and so have Punjab. Both the teams come into this encounter after losing their third match respectively.
PBKS lost to Sunrisers Hyderabad in their previous game, despite an unbeaten 99 from Shikhar Dhawan. Punjab posted 143 in their 20 overs; apart from Dhawan, none of the other batsmen contributed. In reply, Sunrisers chased down the target in 17.1 overs.
Gujarat Titans, on the other hand, defeated the Chennai Super Kings in their opening game, before registering their second win over Delhi Capitals. However, they lost their third match to Kolkata Knight Riders after nearly winning it. Sai Sudharsan and Vijay Shankar scored a half century each to take Gujarat to a first innings total of 204. In the chase, KKR got off to a good start before a hattrick from Rashid Khan turned the game in Gujarat’s favour. KKR needed 29 off the last six balls, and Rinku Singh pulled off a heist.

PBKS vs GT IPL 2023 Match 18 Prediction
Both Punjab Kings and Gujarat Titans have had a similar fortune so far this season, winning two of their three respective games. Shikhar Dhawan is in a monstrous form, and if Gujarat can get him out early, a lot of their woes will be sorted. Rashid Khan is coming into this contest on the back of taking the first hattrick of IPL 2023 and will be high on confidence. Both the teams are in great form and the result of the game can go either way.
