The inaugural Champions of the World’s toughest T20 league, Rajasthan Royals (RR), will look to continue their winning momentum when they take on Punjab Kings (PBKS) at Maharaja Yadavindra Singh International Cricket Stadium in Punjab. Rajasthan Royals finally found their winning formula in their last fixture against Chennai Super Kings. Rajasthan defeated Chennai in a close encounter by 6 runs. The team looked settled with proper batters, bowlers, and quality all-rounders. Rajasthan may look to carry on their winning ways with an unchanged squad against a formidable Punjab, who have won both of their opening fixtures.
Here is the list of players who may make the cut in the playing eleven for Rajasthan in game number 18 against Punjab Kings.
RR Squad
Yashasvi Jaiswal, Sanju Samson (c), Nitish Rana, Riyan Parag, Dhruv Jurel (wk), Wanindu Hasaranga, Shemron Hetmyer, Jofra Archer, Kartikeye, Maheesh Theekshana, and Tushar Deshpande.
Rajasthan can expect their key opener, Yashaswi Jaisawal, to return in form. Sanju Samson has shown strong performance recently and is likely to adopt an aggressive approach against the opposition in the initial phases of the match.
Nitish Rana is expected to continue at number three after two forgettable knocks at the number four position. Dhruv Jurel may once again be entrusted with the responsibility of shouldering the out-of-form middle order.
