Rajasthan Royals go head to head against Punjab Kings in the 8th match of the Indian Premier League at Barsapara Cricket Stadium, Guwahati on 5th April, Wednesday at 7:30 PM IST.
Rajasthan Royals have begun well in this season already. Royals got off to a blistering start against Sunrisers Hyderabad in their first game. Jos Buttler and Yashasvi Jaiswal set the tone by an 85 run opening stand. Sanju Samson keeps the tempo and Shimron Hetmyer puts the finishing touches to get them over 200. Royals then rattled Sunrisers in the run chase by a twin blow in the opening over by Trent Boult. Yuzvendra Chahal with his spin magic never allowed Sunrisers to recover from the early blows and Royals finished a clinical victory.
As far as Punjab Kings are concerned, they too got off to a winning start to the season. It was a rain curtailed game in the end as they squeezed off-colour Kolkata Knight Riders and eventually winning the game by DLS method by 7 runs. Punjab rode on that splendid fifty from Bhanuka Rajapaksa and put up a massive total on the board. Arshdeep Singh struck thrice to derail Knight Riders chase that never took off.
