Rajasthan Royals vs Punjab Kings (RR vs PBKS): This is going to be the 65th IPL Match, and we will provide you with expert analysis to help you figure out which team will be the favorite here. We will help you select the best 11 players in the Dream 11 team and provide head-to-head stats for RR vs PBKS.
Team Preview of Rajasthan Royals and Punjab Kings
Rajasthan Royals won 10 out of 9 matches, but then suddenly, in the last three matches, they lost all the matches, which is a concerning thing for the team. In the last match, they lost against the Chennai Super Kings by five wickets, in which the opening pair once again failed to carry on the scoring after getting the start.
It is going to be tough for them as Jos Buttler flown back to England to prepare for the World Cup alongside Liam Livingstone, Will Jacks, and Reece Topley. Tom Kohler-Cadmore will make his debut as a backup opener for the Buttler.
Punjab Kings lost their last match against the Royal Challengers Bengaluru. Once again, Virat Kohli scored 92 runs, but he was able to do so because of the Punjab Kings’ bad fielding. Punjab needs to improve their fielding because they have been dropping too many catches in the last few matches, which they did in the last match.
Punjab has already been eliminated from the IPL, but Rajasthan Royals still have a chance to finish in the top two if they win their last two matches against Punjab Kings and Kolkata Knight Riders. On the other hand, Punjab Kings might give chances to many other players who have not played one match for them, so it will be a great chance for Rajasthan to win.
