RCB vs PK Dream11 Predictions: Form Preview
Bangalore’s quest for the maiden title:
RCB lost 2 games in a row post landing in UAE. The whispers of another campaign going haywire started gaining momentum. But RCB put all those rumours to rest with successive wins over MI and RR. They looked like a complete unit in both the games. RCB are currently sitting pretty with 7 wins. They will love to notch up a few more wins in the quest to end in the top-2. RCB very well know how it feels to miss out on playing the first qualifier. They will do everything in their capacity to grab those points.
Are Punjab heading for the last dance?
Punjab lost a game against RR they had no business losing. Needing to win 10 from the last 15 balls, they went on to lose the game by 2 runs. They have won 2 out of their next 3 games albeit both in the last over. Punjab are currently placed 5th in the points table. They need to win both their remaining games in order to qualify for the playoffs. Punjab will take confidence from the fact that they had defeated RCB earlier in the season. It promises to be an interesting encounter.
