IPL 2025, RCB vs PBKS Highlights: Nehal Wadhera ensured that the Punjab Kings survived a scare and successfully chased down a target of 96 to seal a five-wicket win over RCB. Batting was not an easy occupation at the Chinnaswamy Stadium and the Punjab Kings have been made to feel the heat by RCB despite chasing a target of just 96 in a match that had been curtailed to 14 overs a side. Josh Hazlewood left the chasing side rattled with two wickets in he eighth over. However, Nehal Wadhera has since got PBKS closer to the target....Read More
It had earlier been a rather shaky start for Punjab Kings. Openers Prabhsimran Singh and Priyansh Arya both fell inside the first four overs with just 33 runs on board.
Tim David earlier gave RCB something to fight for by smashing his way to an unbeaten 50 in 26 balls. RCB had lost as many as seven wickets before they reached 50 but David's late surge has taken them to a score of 95/9 in 14 overs. Punjab Kings thus have to chase down a target of 96 in 14 overs, with the match being heavily curtailed due to a rain delay that pushed back toss by over two hours.
Arshdeep Singh earlier dismissed Virat Kohli in the third over after sending back his opening partner Phil Salt in the first to give Punjab Kings a strong start in their rain-curtailed match against Royal Challengers Bengaluru. The match has been reduced by six overs due to a rain delay which lasted more than two hours.
Shreyas Iyer won the toss, which was delayed to 9.30pm IST, and Punjab Kings are bowling first against the Royal Challengers Bengaluru at the Chinnaswamy Stadium. Rain forced the match to be delayed for more than two hours. It has led to the game being reduced to a 14-overs-a-side affair.
Royal Challengers Bengaluru: Philip Salt, Virat Kohli, Rajat Patidar(c), Liam Livingstone, Jitesh Sharma(w), Tim David, Krunal Pandya, Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Josh Hazlewood, Suyash Sharma, Yash Dayal
Punjab Kings: Priyansh Arya, Nehal Wadhera, Shreyas Iyer(c), Shashank Singh, Josh Inglis(w), Marcus Stoinis, Marco Jansen, Harpreet Brar, Xavier Bartlett, Arshdeep Singh, Yuzvendra Chahal
It is the 18th anniversary of the first-ever IPL match. There have been unseasonal showers the past few days in the city of Bengaluru and it is no different today. The ground was all covered up and it was drizzling steadily in the minutes leading up to, and in the hours after, the originally scheduled time for toss.
