New Delhi: Punjab Kings (PBKS) will be up against Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) in the 37th clash of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025 at the Mullanpur Stadium in New Chandigarh on Sunday. It will be a return fixture for the two teams who locked horns only two days before, on April 18 in Bengaluru, which turned out to be a rain-curtailed low-scoring thriller.
The game was shortened to 14 overs per side as rain delayed the toss and the start of the game. PBKS opted to bowl first and restricted RCB to 95/9 in their stipulated 14 overs. The Punjab side went on to register their fifth win of the season, on the back of Nehal Wadhera, who hit 33* off 19 balls and took his team over the line in just 12.1 overs, handing RCB their third loss of the tournament.
