RR vs PBKS IPL 2024 Prediction & Playing 11: Rajasthan Royals will be hoping to seal their playoff status as they take on the bottom-placed Punjab Kings in Match 65 of IPL 2024 on Wednesday (May 15).

This will be the first of two home matches for RR at the Barsapara Stadium in Guwahati.

With 16 points in 12 matches, the Royals are yet to qualify for the playoffs. They are placed 2nd in the table but a string of three defeats have halted their positive momentum ahead of this important tie. Although Punjab Kings are out of the tournament, they would be hoping to end the campaign with a flurry and cause jitters in the Royals with a victory of their own, as it will also lift them up from the bottom spot.

Tom Kohler-Cadmore is also likely to open the innings with Yashasvi Jaiswal.

For Punjab Kings, Liam Livingstone has left the camp for international duties.
