According to the IPL 2022 schedule, the 60th match will see Punjab Kings (PBKS) lock horns with Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) at the Brabourne Stadium in Mumbai on Friday, 13 May.
Royal Challengers Bangalore come into the game on the back of a couple of crucial wins, boosting their chances of qualification. A win will, more or less, ensure a top-four spot, but it is easier said than done for Faf du Plessis and Co. They face Punjab Kings, for whom this is a must-win game by all means. PBKS will bank on the likes of Shikhar Dhawan and Arshdeep Singh to deliver the goods against an in-form RCB side. With two valuable points hanging in the balance, a cracking game beckons in Mumbai.

Today’s RCB vs PBKS Dream11 match top picks
Wicketkeeper
Jonny Bairstow: Jonny Bairstow finally struck some form in the previous game, scoring a half-century against the Rajasthan Royals (RR), albeit in a defeat. However, Bairstow has a terrific record at the top of the order with his range against pace being brilliant. Given his knack for scoring big and quick runs, Bairstow should get the nod over Dinesh Karthik in the game.
Batter
Faf du Plessis: Like Jonny Bairstow, Faf du Plessis comes into the game on the back of a half-century. The South African has been RCB's best batter in IPL 2022, scoring valuable runs at times of need. Given his experience and form, he is a must-have in your RCB vs PBKS Dream11 fantasy team.
All-rounder
Liam Livingstone: Liam Livingstone has been the Punjab Kings' go-to player in IPL 2022, scoring quick runs in the middle overs. Although his batting ability should guarantee him a spot in your RCB vs PBKS Dream11 fantasy team, Livingstone adds value to his bowling as well, holding him in good stead ahead of the game.
Bowler
Josh Hazlewood: Josh Hazlewood is one of the best pacers in the world with his recent numbers in the format speaking for themselves. His ability to hit hard lengths and stick to his strengths has served RCB well in the powerplay and death overs. With Hazlewood in good wicket-taking touch, he can be backed to sustain his form.
