Punjab Kings (PBKS) are set to host Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) in the 58th match of IPL 2024 at Himachal Pradesh Cricket Association Stadium in Dharamsala.
Royal Challengers Bangalore and Punjab Kings find themselves locked in an intriguing battle to be in contention for playoff qualification, with both teams level on 8 points after 11 games. RCB has hit their stride at the perfect time, winning their last three games on the trot to propel themselves up in the points table. Their resurgence has been spearheaded by the blistering form of Virat Kohli and Faf du Plessis, ably supported by the likes of Rajat Patidar and Dinesh Karthik. Their bowling attack, led by the wily Yash Dayal and the fiery Mohammad Siraj, has also found its mojo, stifling opposition with their discipline and variations.
On the other hand, Punjab Kings have endured a rollercoaster ride, struggling for consistency despite boasting a star-studded lineup. The two teams have already locked horns once this season, with RCB emerging victorious. Chasing a modest 176, RCB rode on a half-century from Kohli to overhaul the target with four wickets in hand and 4 balls to spare.
For Punjab, the return to form of Prabhsimran and Jonny Bairstow has been a positive, but they will need their bowling unit, spearheaded by the experienced Kagiso Rabada and the cunning Rahul Chahar, to deliver a more disciplined performance against RCB’s formidable batting lineup.
Let’s take a look at the Top 3 Batsmen who will score the most runs in today’s IPL match.
