GT is the only team in this season that has remained unbeaten so far. The reason for that may be the impressive bowling from their key bowler Hardik Pandya. Not only Panday’s, but the whole bowling attack of GT is very difficult to play. It would be difficult to score big by Punjab Kings if GT won the toss and ask the opponent to bat first.
