The Rajasthan Royals lost badly in their last game against Mumbai Indians, which was unexpected given their great run of form in the last few games. On the other hand, Punjab Kings were brilliant against table-toppers Gujarat Titans and beat them comprehensively to get some momentum behind them.

The Punjab Kings would be hoping to get themselves ahead in the race for a playoff position as they take on the Rajasthan Royals. Only two points separate the two teams and they have played an equal number of games too. Thus this game is very important for both sides.

If Punjab win today, they would jump to the third position in the points table with 12 points to their name. But if Rajasthan win, they can get to the second place ahead of the Lucknow Super Giants. Thus, this game holds a lot of importance.

These two teams will now take on each other at the Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai on May 07th from 03:30 pm IST.

It was yet another toss that Rajasthan Royals captain Sanju Samson lost, but this time around, they were asked to bowl first by Punjab Kings skipper Mayank Agarwala who cited heat as the reason for them deciding to bat first

There were not many changes in the Playing 11 as Punjab went with the same 11 and Rajasthan did drop Karun Nair, but did not bring in Jimmy Neesham, Who could have been the game-changer with his death overs hitting.
