Topmost Picks for PBKS vs RR Dream11 Prediction:
Top Picks – Punjab Kings
- Liam Livingstone – The powerful right-handed Englishman struck five fours and nine sixes during his highest IPL innings on Wedensday. He will look forward to batting at the same venue in this game.
- Nathan Ellis – the Australian medium fast bowler has an excellent slower-ball and we expect to see that used in this game. He dismissed Buttler, Samson, Padikkal and Parag the last time they played Rajasthan.
Top Picks – Rajasthan Royals
- Yashasvi Jaiswal – the opener has had his most impressive IPL season to date and has outperformed his more experienced top order team-mates on many occasions.
- Yuzvendra Chahal – The India international spinner went into the last game looking to pick up a four wicket haul for the third game in a row. He should be able to get good grip and turn from this pitch.
Suggested Playing XI N0.1 for PBKS vs RR Dream11 Team:
Jos Buttler(C), Sanju Samson, Yashasvi Jaiswal, Shikhar Dhawan, Ravichandran Ashwin, Liam Livingstone, Sam Curran(VC), Sikandar Raza, Yuzvendra Chahal, KM Asif, Nathan Ellis

PBKS vs RR Probable Winners:
With both teams still in contention for the playoffs, we anticipate a game with plenty of hype and tension on Friday. The team that can deal with the pressure of the game will be the most likely to win. Punjab Kings have a match-winner in Liam Livingstone, but we believe there are more with both bat and ball in the Rajasthan Royals XI. Considering the team combination, Rajasthan Royals is expected to win this match.
