Analysis

In their IPL 2024 opener, the Royal Challengers Bengaluru batting lineup had a good start with their captain Faf du Plessis and Virat Kohli before Anuj Rawat and Dinesh Karthik resurrected their innings to a competitive total. But, the bowling attack for RCB didn’t perform well, conceding the runs to CSK in the 19th over, despite the couple of wickets from the all-rounder Cameron Green.

Meanwhile, the Punjab Kings will be quite reliant on their experienced players to deliver the goods in the IPL 2024 season, including the likes of captain Shikhar Dhawan, Jonny Bairstow, Kagiso Rabada, and Arshdeep Singh. Some of the young players who could make an impact for PBKS in the new year could be Prabhsimran Singh and Jitesh Sharma.
