Punjab Kings vs Rajasthan Royals Pitch Report: A big match is to be played in IPL on Saturday. This time there will be a competition between Punjab Kings captained by Shikhar Dhawan and Rajasthan Royals captained by Sanju Samson. This match will be held at Maharaja Yadvendra Singh International Cricket Stadium in Mohali. This is a new ground and so far two matches have been played in this year’s Indian Premier League. Meanwhile, the question is whether this time the pitch here will be helpful for the batsmen or the bowlers will dominate. Let us understand.
Mohali ground likely to be high scoring
The first match in Mohali was played between Punjab Kings and Delhi Capitals. In this match, Delhi Capitals, batting first, scored 174 runs for 9 wickets, while Punjab won the match by scoring 177 runs at the loss of 6 wickets in 19.2 overs. Talking about the second match, Sunrisers Hyderabad, batting first, had scored 182 runs for 9 wickets. In response, Punjab Kings team had scored 180 runs, but in the end they had to face defeat by 2 runs.
Lots of runs will be scored on Mohali’s pitch, may be of help to pacers
Meanwhile, Mohali’s Maharaja Yadvendra Singh International Cricket Stadium is now ready to host its third match. You have seen that high scoring matches are taking place here. Right now the stadium is new and so is the pitch, hence the ball is coming with proper bounce on the batsmen’s bat. Along with this, there is a little help for the fast bowlers. That is, when the match starts, the pacers can make an impact in the first few overs, but if that time is taken care of, then it will be very difficult to stop them from scoring runs.
Situation of Punjab and Rajasthan in points table
Meanwhile, if we talk about the position of the teams in the points table, then Rajasthan Royals team is at the top in the points table. Sanju Samson’s team has won 4 out of 5 matches and lost only one. The team is currently occupying the top position with maximum 8 points. The condition of Punjab is bad. The team has won 2 out of 5 matches and lost 3. The team has a total of 4 points and has reached the eighth position in the points table. Now it remains to be seen which team wins in Saturday’s match.
