Background

PBKS vs RR IPL 2024 Live: Welcome to ABP Live’s live coverage of the 27th match of the Indian Premier League (IPL) season 2024 that will feature Punjab Kings (PBKS) going up against Rajasthan Royals (RR) tonight in Mullanpur, Chandigarh. It promises to be another thrilling match in the IPL 2024 season, with both teams eager to bounce back after their respective losses in the tournament.

After suffering their first loss of the IPL 2024 season, to Gujarat Titans, RR will be eager to get back to winning form. On the other hand, PBKS lost their last match against Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) in a thrilling battle that unfolded at the Maharaja Yadavindra Singh International Cricket Stadium in Mullanpur, Chandigarh. 

RR batter and bowlers have shown impressive form thus far and will be keen to improve their performance tonight. Riyan Parag, with 261 runs and Sanju Samson, with 246 runs, rank among the top five run-scorers of the season. Additionally, Yuzvendra Chahal, with 10 wickets, is second on the list for the Purple Cap. Rajasthan, with four wins in five matches, enjoy the top position on the IPL 2024 points table.

Punjab's performance has been inconsistent, placing them in the lower half of the IPL 2024 points table with only 2 wins from 5 games. In their recent match against SRH, Ashutosh Sharma and Shashank Singh almost led them to victory, narrowly missing out by 2 runs. However, their top order batters, including Shikhar Dhawan, Jonny Bairstow and Prabhsimran Singh, have struggled to find their form and would be eager to do so in tonight’s contest.

PBKS vs RR, IPL 2024 Live Score: A Close Encounter!

In another closely contested match between the two teams, RR emerged as strong favorites after the first innings. However, Punjab put up a resilient fight. Opting to bat first, Punjab struggled to build momentum on a sluggish track. Ashutosh Sharma, coming in as the Impact Player at number eight, top-scored with a quickfire 31 off 16 balls, guiding his team's total close to 150.

In response, Rajasthan got off to a solid start, not losing a wicket in the powerplay but managing only 38 runs. Opening batter Kotian faced difficulties and was dismissed in the ninth over. Although the required run rate was under control, Rabada's two quick wickets, removing Jaiswal and Samson, added pressure. Punjab bowlers fought valiantly to keep Rajasthan batters in check. The arrival of two Caribbean power-hitters accelerated the chase, scoring 18 runs in just 4 balls. However, Curran dismissed Powell with a short delivery, bringing the equation down to 10 runs off the final over. Arshdeep delivered crucial yorkers, but Hetmyer's composed innings ensured Rajasthan's victory with a couple of sixes.
