PBKS vs RCB Live Score, IPL 2025: Rajat Patidar’s side eye redemption against Punjab Kings

The Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) and Punjab Kings will play their second match in three days. RCB, captained by Rajat Patidar, will visit Punjab Kings, led by Shreyas Iyer, in Mullanpur. Their previous encounter, shortened by rain, saw Punjab Kings victorious. RCB struggled batting, only reaching 96 runs despite a fifty from Tim David. Punjab Kings achieved a five-wicket win, largely due to Nehal Wadhera’s quick 33 runs from 19 balls.

If RCB found Chinnaswamy challenging, Sunday’s surface could prove even tougher. The match will be held at the same venue where Kolkata Knight Riders recently collapsed while chasing just 111 against Punjab, getting bowled out for 95. That game saw the lowest total ever successfully defended in IPL history.

Punjab is expected to retain its current team, particularly given Yuzvendra Chahal’s strong recent performance (two wickets against RCB and four against Kolkata). RCB, meanwhile, is likely to dismiss Friday’s loss as an unusual event, confident in their better away record this season.
