PBKS vs RR: Rajasthan captain Sanju Samson has made some major changes in his playing eleven. For Rajasthan, star batsman Jos Buttler and experienced bowling all-rounder Ravichandran Ashwin are out of the team due to separate injuries. Meanwhile, Punjab Kings captain Shikhar Dhawan is not playing in the important match against Rajasthan due to injury. Livingston is back.
In the IPL, Punjab Kings have experienced a significant defeat. Captain Shikhar Dhawan was ruled out of Saturday's pivotal IPL 2024 match against the Rajasthan Royals. Sam Curran approaches the pitch at Mullanpur's Maharaja Yadvendra Singh International Cricket Stadium to toss the coin. Jos Buttler and Ashwin, however, are not included in Rajasthan's playing eleven.
Sanju Samson, the captain of Rajasthan, won the toss and chose to bowl first in the 27th match of the Indian Premier League 2024. Sanju's starting lineup has undergone a few significant adjustments. Due to various injuries, Rajasthan's star batsman Jos Buttler and seasoned all-round bowler Ravichandran Ashwin will miss the match.
In their place, Rovman Powell and Tanush Kotian have been included in the team. Sanju Samson said that about 5-6 players are not available due to injury. Our legends Buttler and Ashwin are out and will be replaced by Rovman Powell and Tanush Kotian.
At the same time, Punjab Kings suffered a big setback before the important one. Captain Shikhar Dhawan missed the match against Rajasthan due to injury. Atharva Tayde has been given a chance in the team in place of Shikhar Dhawan. Livingston has also returned.
Sam Curran said Shikhar is injured that is why I am captaining. We would also have liked to bowl first, but now we have to make a big score. The middle order with Shashank and Ashutosh is quite excellent. Atharva Tayde has come in place of Shikhar, and Livingston has also returned.
Playing XI of Team Punjab Kings: Atharva Tayde, Jonny Bairstow, Prabhsimran Singh, Sam Curran (captain), Liam Livingstone, Shashank Singh, Jitesh Sharma (wicketkeeper), Harpreet Brar, Harshal Patel, Kagiso Rabada, Arshdeep Singh.
