Teams have been able to defend scores at an alarming pace on the Wankhede pitch, which has been significantly slower. The batters should be kept on their toes by the pacers’ movement and increased bounce off the surface. Batters will have to pick and choose their fights, preserving wickets for a late attack, with spin likely to play a role. Both IPL sides are likely to prefer chasing after winning the toss, thus dew could play a role.

On May 7th, these two teams will face off in the 52nd match of the Indian Super League (IPL) in Wankhede Stadium, Mumbai. Punjab Kings are currently in seventh position, while Rajasthan Royals are currently in third position in the Indian Super League standings.
Rajasthan are now in the top half of the table, but losing momentum at this point will be detrimental to their campaign. There’s a tangle of sides 10 points behind the top four, and Rajasthan should be cautious if they keep losing.
The middle order remains an issue, as it did previously, and batting at 7 and 8 with Ravichandran Ashwin and Trent Boult was never a good option. Their bowling is unquestionable, but their batting, which is largely reliant on Jos Buttler, needs to be brace up.
Punjab’s season, on the other hand, was never promising. It has been marked by inconsistency, with five wins and five losses, and they have yet to win consecutive games in this edition. They defeated one of the tournament’s favourites in their most recent match and will be full of confidence. Punjab’s bowling set the tone against Gujarat, with Kagiso Rabada leading the charge once again.
His alliance with Arshdeep Singh is proving to be a powerful weapon for Punjab, particularly when it comes to death. Punjab will be looking to string together a few wins from here on out, with their batting also performing admirably.

Top Picks from PBKS vs RR for Dream11 Fantasy Team:
After being handed the opportunity to open the innings alongside Shikhar Dhawan in the last encounter, Jonny Bairstow failed to impress once again. However, the Englishman is one of the best players of pace and can hold his own against spin. Bairstow is one to watch in this game, as he is expected to have a huge game in the IPL 2022.
Sanju Samson has struggled in the IPL recently, frequently squandering promising beginnings. However, in the middle overs, Samson is possibly RR’s greatest bet against spin, and his ability against high-end pace is also remarkable. Samson, who is due for a big innings, is a player to keep an eye on in this game.
Liam Livingstone has been an excellent addition to the Punjab Kings’ lineup, scoring runs frequently in the middle overs. The Englishman has also contributed with the ball when needed, benefiting his team. Livingstone is a must-have on any PBKS versus RR Dream11 fantasy team due to his recent form.
Yuzvendra Chahal is the highest wicket-taker in IPL 2022, with 19 scalps. In the middle overs, the star spinner has been RR’s go-to bowler, even bowling often at the death. Chahal should be included in your PBKS versus RR Dream11 fantasy team due to his recent form and wicket-taking prowess.
