Pitch Report – Maharaja Yadavindra Singh International Cricket Stadium
The pitch at the Maharaja Yadavindra Singh International Cricket Stadium has been a bit slow this season, especially under lights. Spinners and clever pacers will have an advantage here, and batters might struggle in the second innings if there’s no dew. However, when the game is played under lights, the cracks on the pitch aren’t as noticeable, making it slightly easier for batters to tackle spin.
PBKS vs KKR Dream11 Prediction: Weather Report
Expect a warm evening with temperatures in the mid-to-high 20s°C. The skies will be clear with no rain expected. The wind will be moderate, and the humidity will also be at a moderate level.
3 Key Players to Watch Out For: PBKS vs KKR Dream11 Prediction
- Shreyas Iyer (PBKS): Shreyas Iyer has been in incredible touch this season. After a disappointing 2024, he has come back strong in 2025. With 250 runs in five games, including three half-centuries, Iyer has an average of 83.33 and a strike rate of over 200. He’s definitely one to watch.
- Sunil Narine (KKR): Sunil Narine delivered a fantastic all-round performance in KKR’s recent match against CSK, taking 3/13 with the ball and scoring 44 off 18 balls with the bat. Narine is showing that he’s still one of the best T20 players around.
- Priyansh Arya (PBKS): In his first IPL season, Priyansh Arya has quickly made a name for himself. After a slow start, he bounced back with a brilliant century against CSK. In the last game against SRH, while Iyer stole the show, Arya played a quick cameo, scoring 36 off 13 balls. Arya is certainly a player to keep an eye on.
