RR vs PBKS, IPL 2024 Highlights: Captain Sam Curran takes Punjab to spirited win as Royals suffer 4th loss in a row
As they say, winning is a habit, losing is one too and Rajasthan Royals are currently clung onto the latter. Dominating the table at one point with eight wins in nine games, the Royals have gone on to lose four in a row and will need to pick themselves up quickly as they face the Kolkata Knight Riders, the table-toppers in their final league stage game before the playoffs. Rajasthan Royals now don't have their qualification in the top two in their hands as Sunrisers Hyderabad will now have to lose one of their games at least for the Men in Pink to push for that second spot. For Punjab Kings, Sam Curran in his last game of the season before leaving for England, gave an all-round performance to remember scoring an unbeaten fifty and taking two important wickets as the Men in Red played party-spoilers not for the first time.

Rajasthan Royals win toss, opt to bat
Rajasthan Royals skipper Sanju Samson has won the toss and opted to bat first saying that the wicket looked good and that there might be no dew, which means the surface is going to remain the same for the 40 overs and if they put a big score on the board, the chasing side might succumb under pressure.

RR vs PBKS pitch report - High scores in the offing
63m and 60m boundaries aren't huge and hence, Guwahati has been a high-scoring venue. The surface is a black soil pitch with a firm little bit of grass. The seamers might get help at the start but it should be a high-scoring game. The last match that was played at the venue was in November last year when Australia chased down 223 against India with ease.

Pitch Report
13th venue of the season, the most in an IPL season. This has traditionally been a very high scoring venue, with 63m and 60m side boundaries, with the straight boundary at 73m. We are playing on a black soil pitch which is firm and rolled nicely. Surely a surface on which a lot of runs can be scored. The pitch has a few cracks but it generally plays much better than the looks. Last year, both games here were won by the side batting first. Teams prefer doing that because when you are chasing, you are under pressure, but in an India Australia game at this venue, Australia chased a huge score of 222 in the last over. Irrespective on when you bat, there are a lot of runs to be had here.

Rajasthan vs Punjab - a El Clasico in reality but lacks sheen
Rajasthan Royals and Punjab Kings have played a lot of thrilling encounters against each other in the last few years, however, the Wednesday clash would miss some star quality with the likes of Liam Livingstone, Jos Buttler and Kagiso Rabada being not there. The objectives of the two teams are also different. The Royals are jostling for a top-two spot while Punjab are playing for pride. Who will be it tonight? Welcome to our live coverage of the RR vs PBKS match from the Barsapa Cricket Stadium in Guwahati.
