RR vs PBKS 65th Match Preview
The 15th of May sees a crucial clash in IPL 2024 as the Rajasthan Royals (RR) take on the Punjab Kings (PBKS) in Guwahati. For the Royals, it’s a win-or-go-home situation. Victory will secure their place in the playoffs, while defeat could see them eliminated depending on other results. PBKS, on the other hand, are already out of contention.
Last Match Summary
Both teams come into this match with contrasting fortunes. The Royals scraped through a thrilling last-ball victory against the Delhi Capitals in their previous encounter. Jos Buttler’s late cameo (34* off 18) proved decisive after they had slumped to a precarious 87/5 at one stage. Yuzvendra Chahal was once again the pick of the RR bowlers, claiming 3/25.
Punjab Kings, meanwhile, suffered a heavy defeat at the hands of the Kolkata Knight Riders. Their batting woes continued, as they were bundled out for a paltry 137. Only Jonny Bairstow (43) showed any fight with the bat. The KKR bowlers shared the spoils, with three wickets each for Pat Cummins and Andre Russell.
