Resolution Criteria

This market resolves based on the result of the Punjab Kings vs Gujarat Titans match in IPL 2026 at the Maharaja Yadavindra Singh International Cricket Stadium in New Chandigarh on March 31. The market resolves YES if Gujarat Titans wins, and NO if Punjab Kings wins. Resolution will be determined by official IPL records available on ESPNcricinfo or the official IPL website.

Background

PBKS finished runners-up in IPL 2025 after being beaten by Royal Challengers Bengaluru in the finals, and were one of the most dominant teams in the league, finishing first in the league stage. GT had a strong season in 2025, with their third playoff finish in four seasons. PBKS have won three of the last five matches played against GT in the IPL, including a high-scoring game last season in Ahmedabad.

Considerations

The Maharaja Yadavindra Singh International Cricket Stadium pitch is a balanced, high-scoring venue averaging approximately 170-173 in the first innings, with pace bowlers benefiting early before the pitch slows down, and batting first may offer better results. GT's middle order lacks reliable options, and Jos Buttler's recent poor form is a concern for the Titans, as his role at number three was vital for the team.
