Despite the win in their previous match, PBKS will be aware of their batting shortcomings. Although Prabhsimran Singh showcased his heroics in the previous game, there was a lack of substantial contributions from other batters. A positive approach from top order combined with an aggressive intent at death, is what Punjab Kings need in this crucial match.
Punjab will be relying on Prabhsimran’s impressive form and hoping he can continue to play positively alongside skipper Shikhar Dhawan at the top of the batting order. The middle order, featuring Liam Livingstone, Sikandar Raza, and Jitesh Sharma, will need to contribute significantly to provide stability. The likes of Rishi Dhawan, Shahrukh Khan, and Sam Curran also hold crucial roles in Punjab’s batting lineup.
Despite having a few expensive outings, Arshdeep Singh will still be Punjab’s premium bowler. Harpreet Brar troubled the DC batters in the previous match and will play a crucial role in this game as well. Nathan Ellis, Sikandar Raza, and Rahul Chahar add depth to Punjab’s bowling lineup.
