It’s time for the battle between the neighbours in IPL 2024 as PBKS will welcome RR to Mullanpur on April13, Saturday with Rajasthan looking to bounce back. Sanju Samson and Co. lost to GT on the very last ball in their previous fixture, which ended their 4-match winning streak in IPL 2024. Despite the loss, RR remain at the top of the table and will be looking to return to winning ways.
For PBKS, it has again been a season where inconsistency has plagued the team. They had a thrilling win over GT but failed to capitalise on the momentum they gained when SRH came to visit Mullanpur. A few fielding lapses proved to be costly for them in the match against Hyderabad, as they lost by 3 runs in the end despite Shashank Singh and Ashutosh Sharma’s heroics.

PBKS vs RR: Team news
Sikandar Raza has been playing for PBKS in the past few matches as Liam Livingstone being unavailable due to injury. It seems that the English batter is close to a return, with Punjab set to take a call on him on Saturday. In that case, expect Livingstone to come in for Raza. Apart from that, don’t expect a lot of changes to the PBKS side, who have Shashank, Ashutosh and Arshdeep Singh in form.
Nandre Burger was injured in the last game and Keshav Maharaj came in to the lineup. If the pacer is fit and depending on the surface, we could see him back in the mix for Maharaj. With no news on Sandeep Sharma’s availability, expect Kuldeep Sen to remain in the side.
