Rajasthan Royals and Punjab Kings are in the same situation in the race of playoffs.

Punjab King Team News & Playing XI

In their last match, the Punjab Kings lost by 15 runs against the Delhi Capitals.

Prabhsimran Singh and Shikhar Dhawan must get off to a strong start, as RR has a strong bowling attack. It's good to see Liam Livingstone coming back in form. In the last match against DC, he scored 94 runs in just 55 balls while chasing. They want a strong performance from Shahrukh Khan and Sam Curran in the lower middle order.

Sam Curran, Kagiso Rabada, and Arshdeep Singh are the prime bowling options. Arshdeep needs to improve his bowling, as this season he has been a bit expensive. Rahul Chahar and Harpreet Brar are two spin options.

Playing XI: Shikhar Dhawan (c), Atharva Taide, Liam Livingstone, Jitesh Sharma (wk), Sam Curran, Shahrukh Khan, Harpreet Brar, Rahul Chahar, Kagiso Rabada, Nathan Ellis, Arshdeep Singh

Rajasthan Royals Team News & Playing XI

In the last five games, RR has won only one. Especially in the last game against RCB, they lost very poorly with 112 runs. Which impacted their NRR.

They have a good spin attack. Ashwin and Chahal are both very experienced and have bowled well throughout the season. Trent Boult and Sandeep Sharma are the two main bowling options.
