Currently occupying the seventh position on the points table with four wins out of 11 matches and 8 points to their name, RCB faces a must-win situation against Punjab Kings to keep their playoff hopes alive.
Kohli's individual brilliance has been a standout feature of RCB's resurgence, with the prolific batsman emerging as the highest run-scorer of the season, amassing 542 runs in 11 matches. His stellar performances have not only endeared him to fans worldwide but also earned him a spot in India's 15-member squad for the upcoming T20 World Cup.

However, as the anticipation builds for the marquee tournament, there remains speculation regarding Kohli's batting position in the Indian XI. While some advocate for Kohli to open alongside Rohit Sharma, a pairing that has only been tested once in the T20 format, others argue in favor of retaining Kohli's traditional spot at number three in the batting order.
As RCB gears up for their crucial encounter against Punjab Kings, who are also vying for a spot in the playoffs with the same number of points but a lower net run rate, the stakes couldn't be higher. Led by Faf du Plessis, RCB enters the showdown buoyed by their recent winning streak, aiming to maintain their momentum and secure a vital victory in their quest for IPL glory.
