The 66th game of the Indian Premier League 2023 will feature Punjab Kings hosting Rajasthan Royals at their adopted home, the HPCA Stadium in Dharamshala. The hosts, who have had a rather challenging IPL season, currently hold the eighth position on the table. Consequently, the upcoming game carries significant importance for them.
On the other hand, Rajasthan Royals recently suffered a defeat against Royal Challengers Bangalore in their last home league game on Sunday, May 14. As they currently occupy the sixth spot on the table, the Royals will be eager to improve their chances of qualifying for the playoffs this season with a victory in this match.
Both sides are all but out of the tournament barring a whole host of results going their way. However, for starters, they need to win this match to even be in contention.
Fantasy Player Picks for Punjab Kings vs Rajasthan Royals
Jos Buttler has tapered off in the last few games, but on a true batting surface in Dharamsala, he can be the main man for Rajasthan to tee off. Buttler can be the captain of your side.
For Punjab Kings, Shikhar Dhawan, their captain would want to end this season on a high and he would not get a better batting surface to showcase his prowess. He can be the vice-captain of your fantasy team.
Head To Head Records
Punjab and Delhi have locked horns against one another in 24 matches. While Rajasthan Royals have won 14 games, Punjab Kings have been victorious in 10 matches.
