- Punjab Kings have the best batting depth in their squad. Starting from the skipper himself Shikhar Dhawan, Prabhsimran Singh has provided good starts. Middle-order is handled by experienced Liam Livingstone, Matthew Short, and Jitesh Kumar.
- Sam Curran and Sikander Raza are quite impressive in the role of finishers.
BOWLING Camp
- Bowling was the major weak point in the team,but the management has worked on the issue and increased the bowling options for Shikhar.
- Spin attack is also not up to the mark having Harpreet Brar leading the attack.

Rajasthan Royals Team Preview
BATTING Camp
- Despite having the best batting attack in the tournament, RR were unable to chase against RCB and the whole team went to pavilion scoring a disgusting total of 59 runs.
- Yashasvi Jaiswal has been impressive throughout the season. Shimron Hetmyer and Dhruv Jurel have good finishing abilities. RR Batting order will have to perform their best if they want to defeat PBKS.
BOWLING Camp
- Bowling is the major weak point in the team, they totally rely on Yuzvendra Chahal and if he doesn’t perform then the whole bowling line-up fails completely.
- Recently KM Asif has performed well from the past two games, but the form of Trent Boult is very crucial for the side.
RR Possible Starting 11
Yashasvi Jaiswal, Jos Buttler, Sanju Samson (c & wk), Joe Root, Dhruv Jurel, Shimron Hetmyer, Ravichandran Ashwin, T Boult, Sandeep Sharma, K M Asif, Yuzvendra Chahal
