IPL 2024: Rajasthan Royals are superior to Punjab Kings in terms of record and performance, there will be a clash between the two teams tomorrow

Kings' top order is not playing responsibly: Punjab Kings had a spectacular victory against Delhi Capitals. Since then the team is regaining its rhythm. The team had defeated Gujarat Titans in a thrilling match and that match included strong innings from Shashank Singh and Ashutosh Sharma. The rest of the batsmen also disappointed in that match. In the last match against Sunrisers Hyderabad, Shashank Singh and Ashutosh Sharma kept the Kings hopes alive till the last over of the match. If the top order had shown some patience then the team would not have lost the match. Jonny Bairstow's poor performance is now becoming a burden for the team. Captain Shikhar Dhawan did not play in the last match. Prabhsimran Singh also could not show any magic in the current season. On Saturday, the Punjab batsmen will face the Rajasthan bowlers who are in very good form and Yuzvendra Chahal has taken nine wickets so far and will enter the Mullanpur Stadium with the Purple Cap.

Kings will have big expectations from Arshdeep: Punjab Kings bowler Arshdeep Singh's performance at Mullanpur Stadium has been excellent. Arshdeep Singh has played two matches in this stadium so far and has taken six wickets. In the first match, Arshdeep Singh took two wickets for 28 runs in four overs against Delhi Capitals and in the second match against Sunrisers Hyderabad, he took four wickets for 29 runs in four overs. Similar performance will be expected from him against Rajasthan also.
