Subhabrata Mukherjee: Virat Kohli’s Royal Challengers Bangalore Will play vs KL Rahul’s Punjab Kings on Friday in the ongoing Indian Premier League (IPL2021,Indian T-20 League). Two teams are having absolutely different fortunes in the 14th edition of the IPL.
Virat’s men won their last match vs Delhi Capitals. This was a thriller that they won. The win margin was just 1 run. Bangalore batsmen specially top and middle order are in very good form. Everybody is scoring runs. Not only that their bowlers are bowling well as well. People like Harshal Patel are in the form of his life. They would love to consolidate on the start they have by winning today’s game.
For Punjab it’s more like catching the bus again that they seemed to have missed. In their last match vs KKR they were pathetic in both bowling and batting department. They would love to win today to atleast give themselves an outside chance of making it to play offs. Now take a look at the probable playing XI for both the teams.
● Punjab Kings:
Mayank Agarwal, KL Rahul (C and WK), Chris Gayle, Nicholas Pooran, Deepak Hooda, Shahrukh Khan, Moises Henriques, Chris Jordan, Ravi Bishnoi, Arshdeep Singh, Mohammed Shami.
● Royal Challengers Bangalore :
Devdutt Padikkal, Virat Kohli, Rajat Patidar, AB de Villiers, Glenn Maxwell, Washington Sundar, Daniel Sams, Kyle Jamieson, Harshal Patel, Yuzvendra Chahal, Mohammad Siraj.
