Rajasthan Royals will host Punjab Kings in the 65th match of the IPL 2024 at the Barsapara Cricket Stadium in Guwahati. Following their three consecutive losses in the IPL 2024, Rajasthan Royals’ campaign has derailed in the tournament, but still, they are within touching distance to make the playoffs, courtesy of their outstanding start to the season. For Punjab Kings, it’s important to deliver an improved performance in their last couple of matches in the IPL 2024, to ensure they don’t finish the tournament at the bottom. Pitch Report Barsapara Cricket Stadium in Guwahati is a small ground, where the pitches for T20 matches generally support batters. In a couple of IPL matches played at this venue last year, the average first innings score is 198, which could turn out to be a par score when Rajasthan Royals and Punjab Kings take the field.
