PBKS vs RR Head-to-Head Records

In match 66 of the IPL 2023 at the Himachal Pradesh Cricket Association (HPCA) Stadium on May 19, 2023, Rajasthan Royals (RR) and Punjab Kings (PBKS) will square off for the second time.

The last meeting between the two teams took place in the eighth game of the current season, with Punjab Kings emerging victors by a margin of five runs. Shikhar Dhawan (87), PrabhSimran Singh (60), and the rest of the batting order helped PBKS score a massive total of 197/4 in 20 overs. 

Sanju Samson (42) of RR led the comeback in reply, with cameos from Shimron Hetmyer (36) and Dhruv Jurel (32) for RR. However, they were unable to cross the finish line since they missed their target by 5 runs. Check complete details on PBKS vs RR head-to-head records.

Punjab Kings

Punjab Kings will enter the match on the heels of a spoiler play committed by Delhi Capitals in the previous game. Despite Liam Livingstone’s heroics in the closing innings while pursuing a huge 214, they were defeated by DC by a margin of 15 runs. 

To qualify for the playoffs, PBKS will now need more than just a sizable victory. They will also need a lot of favourable results. They will definitely be eliminated from the competition if they lose the upcoming game. 

Rajasthan Royals

On the other hand, Rajasthan Royals will be entering the match after suffering a humiliating loss to Royal Challengers Bangalore in their last match. 

Their qualifying campaign has been hindered by a significant 112-run defeat margin. In order to get past RCB and MI, RR now requires a victory over PBKS in addition to a favour from SRH.
