The PBKS vs GT head-to-head record in IPL is one of cricket’s most perfectly balanced rivalries. In 6 total meetings since GT’s debut in IPL 2022, the teams are locked at 3 wins each — no advantage for either side, and nearly every match has gone to the wire. As they meet again tonight in Match 4 of IPL 2026 at Mullanpur, the seventh chapter promises to be no different.

PBKS vs GT — Last 5 IPL Matches
| Date | Venue | Winner | Margin |
|---|---|---|---|
| March 25, 2025 | Narendra Modi Stadium, Ahmedabad | Punjab Kings | 11 runs |
| April 21, 2024 | Maharaja Yadavindra Singh Stadium, Mullanpur | Gujarat Titans | 3 wickets |

PBKS have won 3 of the last 5, including the most recent meeting. But the only match played at tonight’s venue — Mullanpur — was won by Gujarat Titans (3 wickets, IPL 2024). That’s an important data point. GT have never lost at Mullanpur in this fixture.
PBKS vs GT at Mullanpur (Tonight’s Venue)
Just one meeting at this venue so far: April 21, 2024, won by Gujarat Titans by 3 wickets. R Sai Kishore took 4/33 and dismantled PBKS for just 142. Rahul Tewatia guided the chase with a quickfire cameo. It’s the only blot on PBKS’s home record in this rivalry.
However, PBKS have won both meetings at GT’s home ground (Narendra Modi Stadium, Ahmedabad) — including that epic 11-run thriller last season where Shreyas Iyer hit 97 off 42 balls and the match aggregate reached 475 runs. So neither side holds a dominant home/away edge across venues.

Most Runs
- Shubman Gill (GT): 329 runs in 6 innings (Avg: 65.8, SR: 160.48) — the undisputed king of this fixture

Gill and Iyer are the standout batting names in this rivalry. Both are captaining tonight — expect both to be itching to make an impression from ball one.
Most Wickets
- Kagiso Rabada (GT): 10 wickets in 6 matches (Econ: 9.54) — the fixture’s leading wicket-taker. He’s taken wickets in every single meeting between these sides.
- R Sai Kishore (GT): His 4/33 at Mullanpur in 2024 was the most match-defining bowling spell in this rivalry’s history, restricting PBKS to 142

Memorable Matches in PBKS vs GT IPL History
March 25, 2025 — Ahmedabad (PBKS won by 11 runs): The most extraordinary match in this rivalry’s short history. PBKS posted 243/5, their highest-ever IPL total at the time, anchored by Iyer’s 97* off 42 balls — an innings that included multiple sixes off Rashid Khan. GT’s chase was breathtaking in response: Gill (96), Sai Sudharsan (54), and Sherfane Rutherford (46) kept them in the hunt until the final overs. The combined 475 runs and 32 sixes set new records for this fixture. Vyshak Vijaykumar’s impact-player spell in the death overs ultimately swung it for Punjab.
April 21, 2024 — Mullanpur (GT won by 3 wickets): A bowling masterclass at tonight’s very venue. R Sai Kishore’s 4/33 — combining left-arm spin with brilliant variations — skittled PBKS for 142. Rahul Tewatia (36* off 18 balls) then guided GT home coolly. A textbook small-total chase that showed this Mullanpur surface can be a bowler’s ally when used correctly.
What the Head-to-Head Record Means for Tonight
The 3-3 record is mathematically even, but the trajectory matters. PBKS have won 3 of the last 4, including the most recent match, and come in as the home side with more conditions familiarity tonight. GT’s sole win at Mullanpur came through R Sai Kishore’s spin dominance — tonight’s conditions, with less grip on offer than that April 2024 match, may limit that approach.
Shubman Gill’s individual stats in this fixture are exceptional (329 runs, avg 65.8) but he’s never beaten PBKS at GT’s home ground. The head-to-head context adds layers to a match that already has plenty riding on it.
