Rajasthan Royals Review:
Under the leadership of Sanju Samson, the Rajasthan team executed their plans in the last match exactly what was expected of them. They tore apart the Sunrisers Hyderabad bowling attack and won the match by 72 runs. The top-order played exceptionally well in the match and took the match away from Hyderabad in the first few overs of the innings. Sanju would like his teammates to repeat the same performance and win the game.
Jos Buttler and Yashasvi Jaiswal are arguably the most destructive opening pair of the tournament, and they proved it in the last game with an 85-run partnership in 6 overs. The team will expect a similar performance from him again. Sanju Samson is the right No. 3 in the batting order, and he will flourish the innings along with left-handed batsmen Devdutt Padikkal and Riyan Parag. West Indies batsman Shimron Hetmyer, Ravichandran Ashwin, and all-rounder Jason Holder make it a power-packed batting line-up.

Punjab Kings Review:
Shikhar Dhawan started the captaincy of Punjab with the win. Punjab performed well with the bat in the first innings by putting up a big score on the board and defeated Kolkata Knight Riders by 7 runs under DLS method due to rain interruption. The match against Rajasthan Royals will be a tough challenge, against Rajasthan, Punjab have struggled in the last three seasons. Captain Shikhar Dhawan will have to go ahead and instill confidence in the camp to win this match.
Shikhar Dhawan played a captaincy knock against KKR and will look to set a strong platform in the six-over powerplay with Prabhsimran Singh. Prabhsimran Singh hit some attractive shots in his short innings in the previous match. After that Sri Lankan wicket-keeper batsman Bhanuka Rajapaksa should use his experience at No.3 and anchor the innings with Jitesh Sharma and Zimbabwean all-rounder Sikandar Raza. In this order, Sam Curran, Shah Rukh Khan, and Nathan Ellis can add runs with the bat as power hitters.
Punjab’s weak bowling attack will be under pressure as the Royals have good hitters at the top. Sam Curran and Arshdeep Singh will have to keep their line and take quick wickets, having spent a lot of runs in the last match. The role of Sikandar Raza and Nathan Ellis will be crucial in the middle overs. Harpreet Brar, Rahul Chahar, and Rishi Dhawan add variety to the attack, but they need to execute their plans for the team to be successful.
