Rajasthan Royals’ Bowlers Shine in Restricting Punjab Kings to Modest Total in IPL Encounter

In a thrilling IPL encounter in Mullanpur, Chandigarh, Rajasthan Royals’ bowlers showcased their skills on a challenging pitch to restrict Punjab Kings to a modest total of 147 for eight. Led by Avesh Khan and Keshav Maharaj, Rajasthan’s bowlers applied consistent pressure on the Kings’ batsmen, stifling their scoring opportunities and picking up crucial wickets.

Despite a brisk start from Punjab Kings, the momentum quickly shifted in Rajasthan’s favor as wickets fell at regular intervals. Atharva Taide’s aggressive innings was cut short by Avesh Khan, setting the tone for Rajasthan’s disciplined bowling performance. Spinners Keshav Maharaj and Yuzvendra Chahal posed significant challenges for the Kings’ batsmen, while Trent Boult’s economical bowling during the powerplay further added to Punjab’s struggles.
