Punjab Kings are currently in seventh position in the IPL points table. They have played five games and registered two victories. They currently have four points and a net run rate of -0.196. Punjab Kings played their last match in the IPL in Mullanpur against Sunrisers Hyderabad. Batting first in this contest, the Sunrisers scored 182 runs, losing nine wickets in their twenty overs.

In their last game, the pacer Arshdeep Singh was the most successful bowler for Punjab Kings. He returned with figures of 4-0-29-4. He was supported by bowlers such as Sam Curran and Harshal Patel, who picked up two wickets each. The fast bowler Kagiso Rabada also picked up one wicket.

Rajasthan Royals

Despite a close loss to Gujarat Titans in one of the earlier games in IPL, Rajasthan Royals are still sitting on top of the points table. They have acquired eight points from five games and have won four out of their last five games. They currently have a net run rate of +0.871. In their previous match, Rajasthan Royals were on the money for most of the time. They were all set to take their fifth consecutive win in the competition, but Rashi Khan had other ideas.

In their batting effort, Rajasthan Royals set a competitive score of 196 runs on the board. This was possible mainly due to the efforts of their skipper, Sanju Samson, and Riyan Parag. They both hit the fifties to take the Rajasthan team to a competitive total. The pick of the bowlers for Rajasthan was Kuldeep Sen. The fast bowler picked up three wickets for 41 runs from his four overs. Yuzvendra Chahal also picked up two wickets for 43 runs from his quota of four overs. All the bowlers except Trent Boult went for a lot of runs.

PBKS vs RR Toss Prediction

The Maharaja Yadavindra Singh International Cricket Stadium is a relatively new venue for IPL cricket. We have seen just a couple of domestic T20 games played at this ground. The team batting 1st has won one game, while the team batting 2nd has won one. The captain who wins the toss might want to chase a target here.

Pitch and Conditions

The surface on offer at this Mullanpur venue is likely to be a batting paradise. However, the slow nature of the track might restrict the stroke play a bit. To feel safe on this track, the team batting first must score close to 170 runs. Batting first here will also give the team some advantages.

We are likely to have partially cloudy conditions for this contest. The temperatures during the game will be close to twenty degrees. Cloud cover is expected to help the seamers get lateral movement. There is no possibility of rainfall during this match.

PBKS vs RR Betting Tips

If you compare the records of these two teams in IPL, you will find that Rajasthan Royals have done a better job. Although Rajasthan had to endure a close loss in their last game, it is unlikely to hinder their progress.

We will bet with Rajasthan Royals to win the match.
