Punjab Kings
Punjab Kings were very impressive in the first half of the season last year but lost their mojo towards the latter stages. Shikhar Dhawan will lead the side and will look to get off to a good start and will also have one eye on the trophy which has been never won by this franchise.
PBKS have bagged some exciting players in the auction last year and have a well-balanced side. Jonny Bairstow will miss this season as well and all-rounder Matthew Short was named as his replacement. Punjab Kings would be hoping that their star signing of Sam Curran for a whopping sum of Rs. 18.50 crores, pays off this season.
Arshdeep Singh was the pick of the bowlers last season and also made it to the Indian team, he will look to put in a similar performance this season as well.
Kolkata Knight Riders
Kolkata Knight Riders were below par with the bat in the last season and will look to turn things around this season. However, their bowlers have done a fantastic job in both matches and will look to replicate the same performance this season as well.
Shreyas Iyer will miss the 1st half of the season due to injury and Nitish Rana will lead the team in his absence. Andre Russell and Sunil Narine will be key for KKR in the encounter against PBKS. Both these West Indians can bat anywhere in the order according to the team’s needs and can even bowl overs in crucial moments.
Punjab Kings vs Kolkata Knight Riders: Pitch Report
It’s a balanced pitch at the IS Stadium in Gujarat. The boundaries are short in this ground, which will aid the batters. Anything over 175 is a good score here. There could be some dew in the latter half of the send innings, hence the captain winning the toss will look to field first.
