PBKS vs RCB Betting Tips

  • Shikhar Dhawan signed for Punjab Kings ahead of this season and hit 587 runs in 2021. He is our tip for their highest run scorer in this match. Spinner Rahul Chahar has been a consistent wicket-taker in the tournament and is a strong choice for Punjab Kings’ top wicket taker against RCB.
  • Virat Kohli will be free of the captaincy in this IPL season and he is our pick for RCB’s highest run scorer in this game. With the ball, Mohammed Siraj has taken 11 wickets in both of his last IPL campaigns and is well worth backing as RCB’s top wicket taker against Punjab Kings.
  • No one has scored more IPL runs than Virat Kohli and he is our prediction for the Player of the Match Award.

PBKS vs RCB T20 Match Prediction & Betting Tips, IPL 2022

Match 3 of the 2022 Indian Premier League brings Punjab Kings and Royal Challengers Bangalore together at the DY Patil Stadium, Navi Mumbai on Sunday evening. Punjab Kings finished in sixth place for the third successive season last year with RCB coming fourth for the second year in a row. Read on as we preview this group stage game. The match begins at 19:30 local time.

Punjab Kings have had a complete revamp of their side across all departments and including the captaincy. A fresh look and new players may well reap rewards in this opening game.

RCB have a very strong group of players who can not be ruled out from challenging for the title this year. They have a particularly fearsome batting line-up and they will be relishing this match.

TV channels: This match will be shown live on Star Sports in India, Sky Cricket in the UK and Fox Sport in Australia. Flow Sports will broadcast in the Caribbean with SuperSport possessing the rights in South Africa

PBKS vs RCB Match Toss Prediction

We expect that both Mayank Agarwal and Faf du Plessis will want to field first. With due coming into the equation later in the evening, neither side will want to have to handle a wet ball.

PBKS vs RCB Match Pitch Report

The surface at the DY Patil Stadium is often fast and pacey which attracts both the quick and spin bowlers. The ball should come nicely onto the bat and we expect to see some high individual scores.

Weather Report

Initially sunny before clear skies take over during the evening. Highs of 30 degrees with humidity increasing.

PBKS Team News & Playing 11

PBKS Team News

The Kings will be without England keeper-batter Jonny Bairstow who is playing in the Final Test of the West Indies v England series. They will also not be able to call upon the services of South African pace bowler Kagiso Rabada who was playing in an ODI series against Bangladesh until Wednesday.

PBKS Key Players

  • Shikhar Dhawan - The opening batter is an excellent new recruit for Punjab Kings. No player has hit more fours than Dhawan in the history of the IPL.
  • Liam Livingstone - The big-hitting Lancashire all-rounder has rapidly developed into one of the most sought after white ball batters in the world over the last 12 months.
  • Rahul Chahar - The spinner has a lot of responsibility on his shoulders and will be leading a relatively inexperienced bowling attack in this game.

PBKS Team Form

Punjab Kings won two of their last three and three of their last five games last season. They will be hoping to find more consistency this year and move up the table.

PBKS Predicted Playing 11

Shikhar Dhawan, Mayank Agarwal (c), Liam Livingstone, Bhanuka Rajapaksa, Shahrukh Khan, Prabhsimran Singh (wk), Benny Howell, Odeon Smith, Rahul Chahar, Arshdeep Singh, Sandeep Sharma

RCB Team News & Playing 11

RCB Team News

RCB will be missing two of their Australian contingent for their first game of IPL 2022 and other early games of the tournament with all-rounder Glenn Maxwell getting married and Josh Hazlewood on international duty in Pakistan. However, they have strength in depth in their squad and will still put out an impressive XI.

RCB Key Players

  • Virat Kohli - There will be plenty of debate over whether Kohli should open the batting for RCB or play at number three or four. Irrespective of his batting position, he will deliver runs.
  • Faf du Plessis - It will require a big character to fill the captaincy shoes of Virat Kohli in the RCB side. Fortunately, du Plessis is a natural leader and scored 633 IPL runs last year.
  • Mohammed Siraj - The India international bowler is a competitive individual and he will take the new ball for RCB in this game.

RCB Team Form

RCB ended the 2021 campaign with two defeats from their final three games. Prior to those results they had won three matches on the bounce and looked to be the team to beat.

RCB Predicted Playing 11

Virat Kohli, Finn Allen, Faf du Plessis (c), Sherfane Rutherford, Mahipal Lomror, Wanindu Hasaranga, Shahbaz Ahmad, Dinesh Karthik (wk), Harshal Patel, Mohammed Siraj, Siddarth Kaul

PBKS vs RCB Head to Head

Punjab Kings finished two points outside of the play-offs last season but, in spite of winning three of their final five matches, failed to string together successive wins all season. RCB began the 2021 tournament in fine form but their wobble came at the wrong time and coincided with the play-offs.

The two teams have been very well matched over the history of the IPL with Punjab Kings currently enjoying a small lead of two wins.

PBKS vs RCB Betting Odds

Although Punjab Kings have got a new look team for 2022, the bookies have them as narrow outsiders against RCB.

Who will win PBKS vs RCB IPL T20 Match?

Neither team will be able to field their first choice XI and this will give opportunities to some of the younger and less known players in the squad. However, Punjab Kings will certainly be weaker without Bairstow and Rabada and RCB will miss the consistent runs from Glenn Maxwell.

In Shikhar Dhawan and Faf du Plessis, we have two of the leading run scorers from the 2021 tournament on show. We also expect to see some big scores from Virat Kohli and Liam Livingstone.

PBKS vs RCB Top Team Batsmen

Shikhar Dhawan, Mayank Agarwal and Liam Livingstone are our batting tips for Punjab Kings. Dhawan has hit 654 fours in his IPL career. Liam Livingstone left the bio-bubble early last year but has since flourished at international level and in the Hundred and T10 tournaments.

Virat Kohli, Faf du Plessis and Finn Allen are our batting recommendations for RCB. Kohli has only passed 50 on three occasions in each of the last three seasons and he will be very determined to produce bigger numbers this season. du Plessis averaged 45.21 in 2021, his second successive IPL season with an average above 40.

For Punjab Kings, Rahul Chahar, Arshdeep Singh and Liam Livingstone are our bowling tips. Livingstone can bowl both off and leg-spin and often picks up more wickets than expected. Singh took 18 wickets in the 2021 IPL including figures of 5-32 against Rajasthan Royals.

For RCB, Harshal Patel, Wanindu Hasaranaga and Mohammed Siraj are our bowling tips. Patel won the Purple Cap, taking 32 wickets from 15 games, last season. Hasaranga is a very talented spin bowler and finished as the leading wicket taker in the 2021 T20 World Cup.
