We have the Match Prediction that can help you in placing the right bets. We will discuss current form, head to head, stats, and players to watch out for in the upcoming match.
Punjab Kings have strengthened their death bowling as they have added bowlers Jhye Richardson and Riley Meredith to give support to Mohammed Shami and Chris Jordan. However, the team’s lower middle-order could be one of the concerns for the team.
Rajasthan Royals will be lead by a new skipper in Sanju Samson. The Kerala player will aim to get off to a good start and will aim to get the best out of his players. RR could struggle in their bowling department as Jofra Archer is likely to miss the season whereas they don’t have much experience in their Indian contingent.
Bowling will play a crucial role at the batting paradise of Wankhede Stadium.
