Punjab Kings are all set to host Royal Challengers Bangalore at the IS Bindra Stadium in Mohali on Thursday in match number 27th of IPL 2023 on April 20 with both teams hoping for a positive result. PBKS defeated Lucknow Super Giants in their previous match by 2 wickets in the absence of their talismanic captain Shikhar Dhawan who was sidelined with a niggle.
RCB meanwhile come into this fixture on the back of an 8-run defeat at the hands of MS Dhoni’s Chennai Super Kings. Punjab Kings are currently in fifth place on the IPL 2023 points table with six points from five matches, while the Royal Challengers Bangalore are in eighth place, having just four points from five matches.
In Dhawan’s absence, Sam Curran led PBKS to a crucial win, Sikander Raza put in an all-round display, while Curran himself picked up three wickets as Lucknow could only manage to score 159/8 after being invited to bat first, despite KL Rahul’s 74-run inning.
In reply, PBKS successfully chased down the required total with 3 balls to spare as Raza’s fifty, Matthew Short’s 34-run knock followed by a match-winning knock from Shahrukh Khan (23* off 10 balls) ensured the win.
On the other hand, Faf du Plessis’ RCB were beaten narrowly by CSK in a run-fest at the M. Chinnaswamy Stadium. Devon Conway and Shivam Dube both scored fifties to propel the four-time IPL champs to a massive total of 226/6.
Conway scored 83 from 45 balls, while Dube got 52 off 27 deliveries. RCB set out to achieve the highest successful chase in IPL history but were jolted with early blows as Virat Kohli and Mahipal Lomror departed however, Du Plessis and Glenn Maxwell both got fifties but RCB suffered another batting collapse.
