Gujarat Samp Army vs Punjabi Sher, L90, Today Match Prediction

GSA vs PUNS Match Prediction & Analysis

Gujarat Samp Army secured their second win of the season in their recent game after having lost 2 consecutive matches. Their key batters stepped up and delivered big knocks to help GJS chase down a massive total.

Punjabi Sher will face a strong Samp Army lineup as they aim for their first win of the season. It won’t be easy for PNS to bounce back from their recent loss against the Chattisgarh Warriors.

Even with Andre McCarthy, Robbie Frylinck, and Javon Searles in the middle order, Punjabi Sher could not prevent the huge batting collapse. Though Gujarat Samp Army won their last match, they will be concerned about their bowling effort.

They managed to pick up just one wicket while conceding 185 runs. Thisara Perera will expect his key bowlers to make a comeback against a struggling Punjabi Sher lineup.

TEAMS PREVIEW

Gujarat Samp Army Preview

Gujarat Samp Army have momentum on their side after a huge win in the recent match against Delhi Royals. They were up against a very strong opposition that featured many of the star T20 batters from around the world.

Bowling to such a lineup was always going to be a challenge. However, the Samp Army were exceptional in coming back into the game after an underwhelming bowling performance in the first innings.

Chandrapaul Hemraj and Chirag Gandhi continued their batting form to score a fifty each while skipper Thisara Perera delivered a great finish to help his team get across the line.

With such an in-form batting lineup, GJS will have the edge in this contest against Punjabi Sher. They need their bowlers to make a comeback in this game. Malinda Pushpakumara had replaced Miguel Cummins in the last game but failed to deliver a breakthrough.

Subodh Bhatti, Thisara Perera, and Saurin Thakar are the key wicket-takers to watch out for in this squad. Jesal Karia was exceptional in the previous match against Rajasthan Kings. We expect him to find his rhythm and bounce back in this game.

Gujarat Samp Army Predicted Playing XI:

Cameron Delport (wk), Chandrapaul Hemraj, Amitoze Singh, Prashant Gupta, Thisara Perera (c), Chirag Gandhi, Jesal Karia, Chaturanga de Silva, Saurin Thakar, Malinda Pushpakumara, Subodh Bhatti

Gujarat Samp Army Actual Playing XI:

Chandrapaul Hemraj, Mausif Khan, Chaturanga de Silva, Jesal Karia, Miguel Cummins, Cameron Delport, Thisara Perera, Saurin Thakar, Malinda Pushpakumara, Chirag Gandhi, Suboth Bhati

Punjabi Sher Preview

Punjabi Sher began their Legend 90 League campaign much later than everyone else. And they’ve been on the backfoot so far. They were bowled out for 101 runs in their last match against the mighty Chandigarh Warriors.

In their opening game, they finished with 128 runs batting first, courtesy of some brilliant performances from the middle-order batters. They failed to defend the total even after picking up 6 wickets in that game.

There are some brilliant players in this batting lineup. Jesse Ryder opens the innings alongside Anand Singh. Ryder has plenty of international experience playing for New Zealand while Singh looked in fine touch in the opening game.

The likes of Andy McCarthy and Robbie Frylinck make for a strong middle-order. However, the failure of these two batters will hurt Punjabi Sher the most. And if they are out cheaply, a comeback is quite difficult from that point on.

Skipper Narsingh Deonarine is also very handy lower down the order and played a good knock in their first match of the season. The skipper and William Perkins add depth to this batting order.

Jon-Russ Jaggesar, Robbie Frylinck, and Nicholson Gordon will be the key bowlers to watch out for. These 3 are expected to deliver breakthroughs while Javon Searles, Dave Mohammad, and Ishwar Pandey are other bowling options that add variety to this attack.

Punjabi Sher Predicted Playing XI:

Anand Singh (wk), Jesse Ryder, Andre McCarthy, Robbie Frylinck, Ayaan Khan, Narsingh Deonarine (c), Nicholas Gordon, Jon Russ Jaggesar, Javon Searles, Ishwar Pandey, Dave Mohammad

Punjabi Sher Actual Playing XI:

Sandeep More, Atul Joshi, Rupeesh, Kamal, Ahsaan Siddique, Amrut Pal Singh, Aditya Chabra, Yashwant Singh Thakur, Santosh Soni, Yuvraj Singh, Kapil Malani

PITCH AND WEATHER CONDITIONS

Weather Conditions

The skies will be clear in Raipur with a high of 28 degrees Celsius around the match time. There are no signs of cloud during the week and we expect no rain interruptions in the game either.

GSA vs PUNS Pitch Report

It is a great wicket for batting and teams have managed to score consistently at 9.5 r.p.o and above. The average 1st innings score in the last 5 matches here is 148 runs. We reckon anything around 150-160 will be a highly competitive total and put the team in a winning position.

Toss: To Bowl

Teams bowling first have won 3 of the last 5 matches of the Legend 90 League on this ground. Gujarat have an in-form batting lineup and have recently chased down a big target. Punjabi Sher have lost both games while batting first and chasing can be a good idea in this game.
