RR vs PBKS Player of the Match Predictions

Updated At:
After leading the points table with 16 points after nine games, the Rajasthan Royals have hit a slump, losing their last three matches and remaining at 16 points after 12 games. On Wednesday against PBKS, RR will be looking to break that winless streak and secure their spot in the playoffs. While the Punjab Kings, missing their World T20 bound England players, will have nothing to play for but pride. Let us delve into the players, excluding the England contingent from both teams, and focus on those with the best chance of emerging as Player of the Match. The players are picked with the help of statistics, head-to-head records, performance at the venue, and odds offered by top Indian bookmakers.
Yashasvi Jaiswal
Last match stats - 24 runs vs CSK
IPL 2024 stats - 344 runs in 12 matches
Record vs PBKS - 217 runs in 5 matches
Record at Guwahati - 71 runs in 2 matches
Yashasvi Jaiswal hasn't replicated his success from 2023, but with Buttler gone, there's a chance for him to step up. Historically, he scores around 24% of the total team runs against PBKS. So, if RR does well, Jaiswal could play a big role in their success.
Sanju Samson
Last match stats - 15 runs vs CSK
IPL 2024 stats - 486 runs in 12 matches
Record vs PBKS - 720 runs in 22 matches
Record at Guwahati - 0 runs in 1 match
Sanju Samson boasts decent stats against PBKS, but his selection is primarily based on his current form in the tournament, having amassed 5 fifties and 486 runs.
Sam Curran
Last match stats - 22 runs and 1 wicket vs RCB
IPL 2024 stats - 207 runs and 14 wickets in 12 matches
Record vs RR - 108 runs & 10 wickets in 8 matches
Record at Guwahati - N/A
In the absence of Bairstow and Dhawan, the responsibility of guiding the inexperienced batting lineup will fall to Sam Curran. His aggressive batting and high scoring rate mean Curran has the potential to be the standout player, especially if he can contribute with both bat and ball.
Apart from the above-mentioned names, you can also place their bets on players like Harshal Patel, Tom Kohler Core and Riyan Parag for today's RR vs PBKS match-up.

The average score batting first last season in Guwahati was 198, and RR themselves almost chased down that score once. Moreover, in the two games played there, four top-order batsmen scored fifties, with Jaiswal even winning Player of the Match in one of those games. Thus, we've chosen three in-form players who bat in the top order for their respective teams. However, it's also worth noting that someone like Boult can exploit the fragile-looking PBKS batting lineup and potentially deliver a match-winning performance if RR bowls first in the RR vs PBKS game.
