PBKS vs KKR Match Prediction

While it is difficult to predict the outcome of the match, this early encounter is crucial for both teams as they appear to be weaker than other teams this IPL 2023 season. In IPL 2022, Punjab Kings had a strong squad but missed out on the playoffs. However, with Sam Curran back in the lineup and Shikhar Dhawan leading as captain and their main batsman, they have a good chance to win. Arshdeep Singh has also become a regular T20 International Player for India, strengthening their bowling.

On the other hand, Kolkata Knight Riders have experienced players like Andre Russell, Sunil Narine, and Venkatesh Iyer, but may struggle to find balance without Shreyas Iyer. They may choose one overseas bowler Ferguson and one additional overseas all-rounder Shakib Al Hasan.

We expect a high-scoring encounter on a pitch that is likely to favor the batters.
