Punjab Kings will continue their unbeaten run against a struggling LSG side. Shreyas Iyer’s three consecutive half-centuries, combined with Prabhsimran Singh’s 131 runs at 157.83 SR, give PBKS the firepower edge. Rishabh Pant’s elbow injury is likely to keep him out or affect his batting significantly, forcing Nicholas Pooran to captain. Additionally, Pooran has managed just 41 runs in 4 innings at 10.25 average this season, deepening LSG’s batting woes.
