KKR vs PBKS Live Score: Good performance expected from Rahane
Captain Ajinkya Rahane will also have to perform better who has failed to take the team to victory by playing fast. They will have to be cautious of Chahal who bowled a dangerous spell last week and took the wickets of Rahane, Raghuvanshi, Rinku and Ramandeep. The contest between KKR bowler Harshit Rana and Punjab opener Priyansh Arya will also be worth watching. This time KKR has won only one match out of four on its home ground. The unnecessary controversy with curator Sujan Mukherjee regarding the pitch has also been in the headlines.
