Punjab Kings

Punjab Kings played a good game against Lucknow Super Giants in their last match and won the game by 2 wickets. Punjab Kings in the chase of 160 Runs, had a batting collapse only to be rescued by Sikandar Raza and Sharukh Khan. The Surprise win against an inform Lucknow Super Giants only proved that no team can become complacent in this tournament.

Punjab Kings will be praying to get their two stars Shikar Dhawan and Liam Livingstone fully fit to play this important fixture against Royal Challengers Bangalore. Playing in front of the home crowd, Punjab Kings will be confident going into this match but would want the service of their captain who brings in a sense of calmness in the batting camp which they missed in the last game. Sam Curran who led Punjab Kings in the last match, is struggling for batting form but came good with his bowling in his last game. The captaincy stint and the win may have done a world of good for his form too.

Royal Challengers Bangalore

The Royal Challengers Bangalore would be wondering how they lost their last game against Chennai Super Kings

Royal Challengers Bangalore was in course to win the match against Chennai Super Kings only to stumble in the finishing line.

The game against Super Kings also exposed Royal Challenger’s week batting line-up. The team over relies on their 3 key batsmen. But unfortunately, apart from the three batsmen, Royal Challengers have probably the weakest batting line-up in the competition. MS Dhoni realised this fact and was calm during the Maxwell – Faf Du Plessis partnership during the chase. Immediately after the partnership broke, the Chennai skipper throttled the Royal Challengers middle order batsmen and with Dinesh Kartik’s poor form to finish games, the game was snatched from the Royal Challengers Bangalore for an 8 Runs Chennai Super Kings win.

The challengers will hope that the form of their top 3 batsmen is good enough to take up the Punjab Kings challenge.

Bangalore team has always been one of the crowd favourites and the team will be happy to play at the Mohali Stadium as it will suite their style of play
