IPL 2023 Live: Mandeep Singh and Rahmanullah Gurbaz to open innings for KKR

Punjab Kings have set a tough total of 191 runs, thanks to the incredible innings by Bhanuka Rajapaksa and captain Shikhar’s back-up attack.

The purple army will have to put their hopes on new opening pair and Indian veteran Mandeep Singh will open the innings, which is rare for the batsman, considering his IPL history at 2nd or 3rd down. Mandeep Singh enjoyed success as a part of the Punjab Kings earlier, and today the hitter will face off against the old team.

Rahmanullah Gurbaz of Afghanistan will join Mandeep for the opening duo and Gurbaz’s recent form in national games will surely raise hopes for the batter in the IPL 2023.
