PBKS vs SRH Dream 11 Predictions: Who Will be Victorious?
A close is promised in this PBKS vs SRH match! Now, each squad has two victories and two defeats. SRH’s well-rounded team gives them a slight advantage.
While Punjab’s batting mostly depends on Dhawan and Bairstow finding form, in but last match, Shashank made a huge knock for PBKS. SRH, with players like Head, Markram and Klaasen, is now dominating at the batting.
SRH bowling may exploit the Chandigarh pitch, which favours fast bowlers with Bhuvneshwar and Unadkat’s speed. Rabada and Arshdeep’s bowling for Punjab is strong, but their choices aren’t as deep as those for SRH.
While toss is a factor, at this pitch, chasing might be beneficial and give SRH an advantage. All things considered, SRH appears to be somewhat ahead.
