Former India cricketer Yograj Singh believes Punjab Kings can lift their maiden Indian Premier League (IPL) trophy by staging Royal Challengers Bengaluru`s downfall in the final of the 18th season in Ahmedabad on Tuesday.

The pulsating contest in the world`s biggest cricket stadium is expected to deliver a spectacle unlike the Qualifier 1 contest, which was one-way traffic in Bengaluru`s favour. Yograj, who believes Punjab can pip RCB, emphasised the importance of franchise stalwart Virat Kohli`s wicket, which could dictate the title`s fate.

"If Punjab doesn`t get Virat out, then they are in trouble. If he doesn`t get out, then he can chase 250 or 300. I believe Punjab can win. The game is done if Virat doesn`t get out in the first 10 overs. My senses say Punjab will win," Yograj told ANI.
