PBKS vs RCB, Match 27: Top Three Dream11 Picks
- Faf du Plessis (RCB): Bangalore's skipper has been in fine form in IPL 2023. Faf du Plessis has scored 259 runs in five matches in the tournament and is looking in great form. Besides, he has a good record against the Punjab Kings, which makes Du Plessis a prime pick for the match.
- Kagiso Rabada (PBKS): The South African speedster still needs to find form with the ball in IPL 2023. But Kagiso Rabada has an impressive record against the Royal Challengers, which makes him an excellent choice for the Dream11 contests of the match.
- Virat Kohli (RCB): The Indian superstar has been the man in form for RCB along with their skipper, Faf du Plessis. Virat Kohli does not have a very impressive record against the Punjab Kings, but the way he has started the tournament and the fact that he will be rearing to go after the failure in the last match makes him a brilliant choice for the Dream11 contests of the match.
