Punjab Kings (PBKS) will be hosting Rajasthan Royals (RR) in this do-or-die clash of Indian Premier League 2023. A defeat for either of the sides will end their campaign in the tournament. PBKS, who will be playing their second match in the adopted home of HPCA stadium in Dharamsala, were outdone by a confident Delhi Capitals side in the last clash. RR, too, faced defeat in the last match vs Royal Challengers Bangalore.

They will then hope RCB, MI and KKR lose their group clash and they have better NRR than all these teams to qualify for the next round of the competition. The Preity Zinta co-owned Punjab will enjoy the backing the local crowd and will hope to stay in hunt for a berth in playoffs with a win.

PBKS vs RR IPL 2023 Live: That is it!
RR needed to win the match by 18.3 overs to temporarily surpass RCB. Although they couldn't achieve the target in the given time, they managed to win a close game. Dhawan took a risk by bowling a spinner in the last over, but it didn't yield favourable results. RR used their resources early in search of wickets, leaving only 9 runs to play with in the final over bowled by Chahar. Dhruv Jurel, a standout player for RR this season, sealed the victory with a six. Buttler failed to score again, but Jaiswal, Padikkal, Hetmyer, and Parag contributed with fifties and crucial boundaries. Jurel provided the finishing touches. With this loss, Punjab is officially eliminated. While batting first, Punjab faced a top-order collapse, but Curran, Jitesh, and Shahrukh Khan's scores in the 40s helped them reach a total of 187.
PBKS vs RR IPL 2023 Live: Hetmyer out
Hetmyer falls as Sam Curran claims the catch, caught by Dhawan. Curran emerges victorious in their brief battle. However, Hetmyer had already made a significant impact. The delivery was a fuller one, outside off, and Hetmyer attempted to once again clear the cover region. However, due to the lack of pace on the ball, he mistimed the shot, resulting in a cue-end. The ball was descending towards Dhawan, but he exhibited excellent agility by diving forward to grasp the catch. With 9 runs still required and a well-set batter departing, this wicket adds pressure to the batting side.

Nevertheless, he had a commendable tournament and played a good innings today. Despite not performing at his best, he managed to score a fifty off 35 deliveries. The dismissal came from a low full toss, as Jaiswal attempted a reverse shot but ended up hitting it flat to the fielder stationed at point. Dhawan displayed agility and took a sharp catch.

The fielder at deep mid didn't have to make much of an effort as Samson failed to time or place the shot properly. It turned out to be a simple catch in the end. Unfortunately, Samson couldn't make a significant impact in RR's final game, and he would have certainly hoped for a better performance.

PBKS vs RR IPL 2023 Live: Jaiswal, Padikkal Stead RR
The leg-spinner has made a promising start, maintaining accuracy and consistency in the opening over. Considering there are two left-handed batsmen at the crease, he may opt to deliver a considerable number of googlies, distinguishing himself from conventional leg-spinners. Additionally, it will be intriguing to see if Dhawan, the captain, decides to utilize Brar's bowling skills in today's match.

PBKS vs RR IPL 2023 Live: Duck For Buttler
Buttler falls victim to Rabada's bowling, as he is dismissed LBW (leg before wicket). It's another disappointing duck for Buttler, marking his fifth this season. The delivery from Rabada is clocked at 142.9kph, slightly fuller in length, and angled in towards Buttler. Caught in his crease while attempting to defend, Buttler is unable to connect the ball. After being beaten on the outside edge twice, he now falls to an inside edge. The ball strikes his front pad in line with the off-stump, resulting in the LBW decision.

Punjab Kings managed to score an impressive total of 187 runs on the board, with 46 runs coming off the last two overs. After being inserted to bat, they lost Prabhsimran in the very first over to Boult. Atharva Taide and Dhawan displayed positive batting, but unfortunately, both of them were dismissed during the powerplay. Saini added to the Kings' troubles by cleaning up Livingstone for 9 runs, leaving them in a difficult position at 50/4 in the seventh over. Jitesh Sharma then entered the scene and launched a counterattack. He swiftly scored 44 runs off just 28 deliveries, forming a valuable 64-run partnership with Curran. Following Sharma's dismissal, the Kings struggled to score big runs for the next four overs. However, Shahrukh Khan and Sam Curran settled into their rhythm, and with Chahal being assigned to bowl the penultimate over, the game took an exciting turn. The over proved to be costly for Chahal, as it yielded 28 runs, including a sequence of 4, 6, Wd, 1, 6, 6, 4.

PBKS vs RR IPL 2023 Live: Sharma Departs
Jitesh Sharma, caught by substitute fielder Ferreira! Navdeep Saini gets the better of him, and he celebrates with a triumphant punch in the air. Saini's slower delivery does the trick, deceiving Sharma completely. With a speed of 118.6kph, Sharma attempts to slash the ball over covers, but his timing is off, and the bat turns at the wrong moment. The ball goes up in the air off the lower part of the bat, and Ferreira, positioned at extra cover, showcases excellent fielding skills as he backpedals to secure a fantastic catch.

PBKS vs RR IPL 2023 Live: Pitch Report By Murali Kartik And Matthew Hayden
"It's the same surface which was used against DC. Talking about dimensions, it's equidistant on either side - 65 metres apiece, a hit straight downtown is 76 metres. Tonight it's a similar surface, although I do note one change is it there isn't so much of that green, that live grass into it. It's not going to have as much movement off the seam inside the powerplay. Don't think it's gonna help the spinners much either. Good batting track. I would bat first, the dew is not going to be a factor either. Bat first, know your total and get about defending it. That's key tonight."

Shikhar Dhawan has been dismissed three times each by R Ashwin and Yuzvendra Chahal, while Sandeep has managed to dismiss the PBKS skipper twice.

After watching the Punjab vs Delhi contest in Dharamshala, RR pacer Sandeep Sharma observed that yorkers are hard to bowl on this venue.
"I feel we have good swing bowlers. When you bowl in such conditions you try to bowl in the right areas, bowl good lengths and try to swing the ball till it is swinging. And then after that you need to bowl your variations. yesterday we saw the game and it is always easier to plan your bowling seeing other games. We saw yesterday when people were trying to bowl yorkers more, it was going out of the ground. They were not executing their yorkers because of dew. We will sit today and try to make better plans" - Sandeep Sharma, on the learnings from the PBKS-DC game.
