Kohli and Co. aim to register fourth consecutive win
Speaking of Royal Challengers Bengaluru, the side has had a season to forget in the IPL 2024 so far. Having played 11 games in the tournament, RCB has managed to win only four matches and lose the remaining seven.
The side finds itself in seventh place in the standings, with their hopes for playoff qualification barely alive. The team, however, has recently found its form and has won three consecutive matches, moving up on the table, keeping the calculators busy. As their clash against Punjab approaches, RCB will be keen on maintaining their momentum, registering their fifth win of the season, and keeping moving up in the standings.
It is worth noting that the team cannot lose a single game now if they want to qualify for the playoffs. On the other hand, Punjab Kings find themselves in eighth place in the standings with eight points in 11 matches. The team will hope to take advantage of the conditions and defeat RCB.
