PBKS vs RR: Punjab Kings will lock horns against Rajasthan Royals in Match 66 of the IPL, 2023 on Friday, May 19, 2023, at Himachal Pradesh Cricket Association Stadium, Dharamsala.
Punjab Kings have played 13 matches so far in the tournament, out of which they have won six and lost seven. Currently, they are sitting at the eighth spot of the points table with 12 points in their account, effectively eliminating them from the play-offs race. Even if they manage to win their last game, they would still have to rely on the outcomes of other games, making it practically impossible for them to qualify for the play-offs.
Rajasthan Royals, on the other hand, have experienced a similar fate in the tournament, as they have also won six games out of the 13 matches they played. Their chances of qualifying for the playoffs have almost diminished after suffering a massive 112-run defeat. All in all, they will still look to end their tournament campaign on a high.
