PBKS vs RCB 58th Match Preview
The 58th match of IPL 2024 promises to be a battle between two teams desperately needing a turnaround. The Punjab Kings (PBKS) lock horns with the Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) on May 9th, 2024, at the picturesque HPCA Stadium in Dharamsala.
Last Match Summary:
- Punjab Kings: In their previous encounter, PBKS fell short against Chennai Super Kings (CSK) by 23 runs. Openers Prabhsimran Singh (30) and Shashank Singh (27) showed promise, but the middle order crumbled against the spin duo of Jadeja and Chahar. Harshal Patel was the lone bright spot with the ball, picking up 3 wickets.
- Royal Challengers Bangalore: RCB, on the other hand, seem to be finding their rhythm after a shaky start. They registered a convincing win against Gujarat Titans in their last match, with Glenn Maxwell (81*) leading the charge with a powerful knock. The bowling attack, spearheaded by Harshal Patel (15 wickets), continues to impress.
Head-to-Head in IPL 2024:
This will be the second meeting between these two sides in IPL 2024. In their first encounter at Bangalore, RCB emerged victorious by 4 wickets, with Maxwell playing a crucial role with both bat and ball.
Key Players to Watch:
- Punjab Kings: Jonny Bairstow, the explosive English opener, will be looking to fire after a string of low scores. The bowling attack will rely on the experience of Harshal Patel and the swing of Arshdeep Singh.
- Royal Challengers Bangalore: Virat Kohli, the current Orange Cap holder, will be keen to extend his run-scoring form. The bowling will depend on the pace of Mohammed Siraj and the spin of Wanindu Hasaranga.
PBKS vs RCB Pitch Report
Chennai’s first-innings total was enough in the previous 2024 IPL fixture at this ground. They beat the Kings by 28 runs.
This is a relatively low-scoring venue compared to others in India. A first-innings score of 160-plus can be considered competitive.
Both teams will probably field two specialist slow bowlers.
PBKS vs RCB Weather Report
Rain is forecast in Dharamsala on matchday. This could suit the team batting second and chasing an adjusted total.
