Rajasthan Royals will clash with revamped Punjab Kings (former Kings XI Punjab) in match 4 of the 2021 Indian Premier League(IPL).
Notably, both the teams have struggled in the past season and hence they will look to start this season with a win along with their name. RR has named Sanju Samson as their new skipper and will also welcome South African all-rounder Chris Morris into the squad as their premium fast bowler Jofra Archer has been sidelined because of injury.
On the other hand, Punjab Kings spent big on pacer Jhye Richardson and would be hoping that their gamble pays off.
