Preview: Punjab Kings (PBKS) will face Rajasthan Royals (RR) in Match 27 of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024. Both teams recently suffered defeats. On Saturday, April 13, they will meet off at the Maharaja Yadavindra Singh International Cricket Stadium in Mullanpur, Chandigarh, hoping to rebound.
The visitors lost their first encounter of the season, losing by three wickets in a last-ball thriller to the Gujarat Titans (GT). However, they continue to lead the points table with eight points. PBKS, on the other side, is currently seventh after losing three of their last five matches. They were millimeters away from winning in their last game, but they lost.
RR continues to appear as one of the tournament’s most powerful teams despite losing the final game. But Punjab will want to take advantage of the fact that they no longer have the winning momentum.
