IPL 2023: PBKS vs RCB, Match Prediction and more details

Punjab Kings will play host as Royal Challengers Bangalore look to bounce back after a defeat in their previous game. The match will be played at Punjab Cricket Association IS Bindra Stadium, Mohali.

The hosts will enter the contest fresh off a thrilling victory over the Lucknow Super Giants. The team, led by Shikhar Dhawan, will be motivated to beat an already suffering Bangalore team in the coming match. Bangalore, however, fell to Chennai Super Kings in their most recent match, thus the Faf du Plessis-led team will be eager to make a comeback.
