PBKS vs KKR LIVE Score – Punjab Kings Batting 1st: Punjab Kings (PBKS) and Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) face battle in the second game of the Indian Premier League 2023 on Saturday. Both sides hope to dispel any scepticism and have a strong start to the season, especially after both teams missed the playoffs in the IPL 2022. Sam Curran, who became the most expensive player in competition history, will take front stage with significant losses for the Kings in the form of Liam Livingston and Jonny Bairstow. The season’s biggest setback for KKR is the absence of captain Shreyas Iyer. Iyer’s back ailment, which he is still recovering from, will probably keep him out of action for the entirity of IPL 2023. Nitish Rana will captain the squad without Shreyas. Follow IPL 2023 LIVE updates with InsideSport.IN
PBKS came in sixth, followed closely by KKR in seventh last season. Punjab hasn’t made the playoffs in almost ten years, but Kolkata have had title aspirations since the same year, 2014. The team combination for either or both sides must be perfected right away if they want to have a good season, as switching things up early in the season is never ideal.
