IPL 2024: Top 3 Records That Could Be Broken in Today’s RR vs PBKS Match
Yashasvi Jaiswal to play his 50th IPL match.
The 65th match of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024 will be played between Rajasthan Royals and Punjab Kings. The match is scheduled for May 15th at the Barsapara Stadium in Guwahati, Assam. This will be the first match of IPL played at this stadium, which serves as the home venue for Rajasthan Royals.
Rajasthan Royals‘ dominant run ended with consecutive shocking defeats, and once a team that looked like the most sought-after team in this IPL has still not qualified. RR has seen their campaign going downhill, and this could hurt them badly if they don’t finish 1st or 2nd after that incredible first half.
Punjab Kings, on the other hand, will play for pride in their remaining games as their season is already over, and they are officially knocked out. Expect some youngsters to play in the team.
Rajasthan Royals are currently in 2nd position with 8 wins and have to win one game to make it to the top 4 and also seal the Qualifier 1 spot along with KKR. RR will be led by Sanju Samson.
Punjab Kings, on the other hand, are placed last in the points table with 4 wins and would be looking to win their remaining games and spoil the other teams’ party. Punjab Kings may see a new captain after Sam Curran flies back to England.
