Rajasthan Royals vs Punjab Kings Prediction & Betting Tips 2023
Riyan Parag had a brilliant start to the campaign but struggled in the second half of the campaign. But it seems as if Parag has found his form again and has scored 77, 27 and 47 in the last three games which makes us believe, Parag would continue his brilliant form and will score well in the upcoming game.
Jitesh Sharma has struggled to find his footing this season and has had an underwhelming campaign so far. In the last five matches, Sharma has scored 29, 9, 13, 0 and 5 and so far this season he has scored 133 runs with an average of 13.30. We believe Sharma would struggle to score well in the upcoming game.

Rajasthan Royals vs Punjab Kings Betting Odds
Punjab Kings to have a better opening partnership than Rajasthan Royals
Punjab Kings and Rajasthan Royals head into this game after a disappointing loss in the last game. After a phenomenal campaign, RR seems to have stuttered in the last few games. RR head into this game after three defeats on the bounce and need a win to seal a playoff spot this season. On the other hand, Punjab Kings have been knocked out of the competition and would be hoping to have a strong finish in what has been a disappointing tournament. With Jos Buttler returning to England camp, it is a big blow for RR for the remainder of the season as Yashasvi Jaiswal has struggled for consistency this season and to have a new opening partnership for the remainder of the season could hamper their season. RR has conceded a bigger opening partnership in two of the last three matches and we believe PBKS would have a better opening stand in the upcoming game.

Rajasthan Royals vs Punjab Kings Top Batters
Sanju Samson to be Rajasthan Royals’ top batter
Even though Sanju Samson did not have a great game against Chennai Super Kings in the last outing, we are going to stick with him once again as the Rajasthan Royals skipper has had a terrific season and with 486 runs thus far, he is the leading run scorer for RR which makes him our top pick in the upcoming game.
Shashank Singh to be Punjab Kings’ top batter
Even though we haven’t seen a big score by Shashank Singh in the last couple of games we are going to stick with him once again as he has been the most consistent batsman for PBKS this season and with 352 runs, he is the leading run scorer for PBKS which makes him our top pick in the upcoming game.
Rajasthan Royals vs Punjab Kings Top Bowlers
Yuzvendra Chahal to be Rajasthan Royals’ top bowler
Yuzvendra Chahal ended the rut as he bowled well in the last game against Chennai Super Kings and ended the game with bowling figures of 1/22. Even though Chahal hasn’t had a great season he has bagged 15 wickets and is the leading wicket taker for RR which makes him our top pick in the upcoming game.
Harshal Patel to be Punjab Kings’ top bowler
Harshal Patel continued his brilliant form in the last game against Royal Challengers Bengaluru as he ended the game with bowling figures of 3/38 and ended up with best bowling figures. With 20 wickets thus far, Patel is the leading run wicket taker for PBKS which makes him our top pick in the upcoming game.
