RR vs PBKS Dream11 Prediction

Trent Boult Stats in IPL

As predicted in our earlier article, Trent Boult showed his class in the first game itself as he picked two wickets in his first over to derail Sunrisers Hyderabad’s chase. Since IPL 2020, Boult has taken 17 wickets in the powerplay which is most by any bowler. He will once again be the key player in RR vs PBKS match.

Jos Buttler Stats in IPL

Jos Buttler started from where he left off last season. The Englishman started the new season with a fluent half-century. Buttler scored 54 off 22 deliveries to provide Royals with an explosive start. With Yashasvi Jaiswal also in form, Rajasthan Royals’ openers will be hard to stop.
