Pune Panthers will square off against Rajasthan Lions in Match 9 of the World Legends Pro T20 League 2026 at the 1919 Sportz Cricket Stadium in Goa on Friday, January 30. Led by former Australia all-rounder Shane Watson, the Panthers have had a mixed start to their campaign. They opened with an impressive four-wicket victory over Gurugram Thunders but were brought back to earth with a heavy 59-run defeat against table-toppers Delhi Warriors. Watson and his men will be eager to regain momentum and strengthen their position in the standings.

Rajasthan Lions, captained by former England skipper Eoin Morgan, are currently placed third on the points table, sitting just above Pune Panthers. Like their opponents, the Lions have registered one win and one loss from their opening two matches, but boast a superior net run rate. They began their campaign with a defeat to Maharashtra Tycoons before bouncing back strongly with a convincing win over Dubai Royals. With both sides evenly matched, this encounter promises to be a closely contested battle.
