Rajasthan Royals will next face Punjab Kings in their home game this evening.
RR will be without explosive opener Jos Buttler, who has returned home to lead England against Pakistan in a four-match T20 series as part of preparations for the upcoming T20 World Cup in June. Uncapped English opener Tom Kohler-Cadmore is expected to partner with Yashasvi Jaiswal at the top of the order.
Already at the bottom of the standings with eight points from 12 matches, the Punjab camp has been further impacted by the unavailability of several key players ahead of their penultimate game. Jonny Bairstow and stand-in skipper Sam Curran are set to leave for England after Wednesday’s game, leaving Punjab with the task of finding another captain for their final match against Sunrisers Hyderabad. Liam Livingstone and Chris Woakes have already departed India.
