IPL 2024: RCB vs PBKS, Match 6- Top 5 player battles to watch out for
Take a look at the top five best battles ahead of the game between Punjab Kings and Royal Challengers Bengaluru.
3. Shikhar Dhawan vs Mohammed Siraj
The Punjab Kings skipper could not dominate with the bat as he is known to do during the last game against Delhi Capitals. He could only muster 22 runs off 16 balls as he lost his wicket while trying to up the ante for his side. At the batter-friendly surface of the M.Chinnaswamy stadium, Shikhar Dhawan would be expected to do the bulk of the scoring for his side.
The opener would be up against one of the best Indian fast bowlers of this generation. Mohammed Siraj would be hoping to demonstrate his new ball abilities early on and scalp a few wickets for his side. He had a disappointing performance against the Chennai Super Kings but would be hoping to move on from that.
Their battle can be the one that decides who has early momentum for their franchise. If Dhawan can continue his attacking approach, then he might just notch up one of the highest scorers in the match tomorrow. The Team India pacer would be hoping to derail the opener within the powerplay itself.
