Indian Premier League battles are getting intense, and we have entered the most important stage of this season.

Rajasthan Royals are set to take on Punjab Kings in their upcoming clash. After a slow start to the season, RR bounced back with back-to-back wins to regain momentum. Meanwhile, Royal Challengers Bengaluru began their campaign with consecutive victories, faced a setback against Gujarat Titans, but quickly recovered to win their next match. RCB have now secured three wins in their first four games this season.
