Punjab Kings take on Rajasthan Royals in match number 8 of IPL 2023. The Shikhar Dhawan-drove side gave a sign of its enormous capacity with both the bat and the ball in their seven-run win against the Kolkata Knight Riders at Mohali. This implies that the game on Wednesday ties into a specific performance in Guwahati. PBKS will find a truly extreme rival in RR, who have some quality batting and bowling assaults available to them.
While the experience of top-requested India player Dhawan will prove to be useful alongside the bowling ability of youthful left-arm India pacer Arshdeep Singh, the group will be enthusiastically anticipating the arrival of Britain power-hitter Liam Livingstone, who missed the opener against KKR after not getting the wellness leeway from the England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB). The player experienced a knee injury in December last year.
The English sets of Livingstone and speed bowling all-rounder Sam Curran — the most costly purchase ever in IPL history at Rs 18.50 crore — could be PBKS’ ace in the hole this season alongside the thin left-arm fast Arshdeep.
