Win Projections to be updated soon
Match 58 of the Indian Premier League (IPL 2024) saw the Punjab Kings play Royal Challengers Bengaluru at the HPCA Stadium in Dharamsala on May 9. PBKS chose to field first after winning the toss. Star pacer Kagiso Rabada was rested, which caused Punjab to make a small alteration to their starting XI. They achieved this by strengthening their batting lineup by selecting Liam Livingstone ahead of the South African bowler.
Conversely, RCB also joined the battle with a significant alteration from the previous match. Glenn Maxwell was benched, the big spectacle. Consequently, they turned to Lockie Ferguson, a Kiwi pacer, to bolster their bowling attack. It is important to remember that Maxwell had previously given indications that he wasn’t feeling well. He had chosen to skip a few matches, but in the final two games for RCB, he returned.
I’m heading to the bowling alley. It appears as though they have slightly diluted the situation; it could be too early. attempting to exert early pressure on RCB. We want to use the new ball to get wickets with the team we selected for today. We currently have it rather easy: we just need a couple outcomes to move forward and win the games we still have left. Livingstone replaces Rabada. At the toss, Sam Curran remarked, “Our strength is our batting.”
