Gujarat vs Punjab Chance of Winning
Gujarat have been consistent in the Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy over the years, but since their championship run in 2014-15, a trophy has eluded them big-time. This year, they have turned the leaf in an amazing way, having registered three wins from four matches. That’s as good as it gets.
Coming face to face are Punjab. One of the strongest outfits of the tournament, the Mandeep Singh-led side have registered three wins from four games - the same number of wins as Gujarat at the moment. Many of their players are in very good form and would thus want to rise on the back of them to beat Gujarat in this encounter to top the Group C table.

Gujarat vs Punjab Betting Tips
From Abhishek Sharma to Prabhsimran Singh, from Mayank Markande to Harpreet Brar, there have been many players who have put their hands up for Punjab in the ongoing season already. Umang Kumar has been doing well for Gujarat as well, so I am presuming him will come into the action against Punjab as well. There will be a surprise if Indian leg-spinner Ravi Bishoni, who recently changed affiliation to Gujarat, doesn’t do well with the ball.
