The Yuvraj Singh-led side lost their campaign-opener against Delhi Daredevils by 10 wickets under laden sky before going down to the Shah Rukh Khan-owned Kolkata Knight Riders in another rain-truncated proceeding.
Although they are yet to open account a week into the IPL's second edition, the Punjab team undoubtedly posses a mighty batting order, led by the stylish left-hander and poised to take on Bangalore's bowling line-up consisting Protea paceman Dale Steyn and Kiwi all-rounder Jesse Ryder.
Skipper Kevin Pietersen will surely draw from his experience to recapture the form they showed in the first match.
Besides Pietersen, the onus of building the innings will also be on star South Africa all-rounder Jaques Kallis and Dravid, whose 48-ball 66 laid the cornerstone of Bangalore's win against the Rajasthan Royals.
