At the same time, before this match, we know every small and big information related to PBKS Vs RR match.

What will happen in both teamsPbks vs rr ipl 2025

There may be a major change in the team of Rajasthan Royals against Punjab Kings. In fact, in place of RR's caretaker captain, now regular captain Sanju Samson has returned to the team as captain. In the first three matches, he was involved in the playing XI as an impact pai, but now he will join the playing XI completely and will handle both the responsibility and captaincy behind the wicket.

At the same time, Punjab Kings have won both the initial matches and rarely make some changes in their playing XI.

Who ahead in the head to head?

This time, the war of thorns between Rajasthan Royals and Punjab Kings (PBKS Vs RR) is going to be seen as Punjab Kings are seen in such a tremendous form for the first time. At the same time, after the return of Rajasthan's regular captain Sanju, Rajasthan is also seen stronger than before. At the same time, talking about the head to head between the two teams, the pan of Rajasthan is very heavy here.

In fact, a total of 28 matches have been played between the two teams in IPL history (PBKS Vs RR), in which Rajasthan has won the highest 16 matches and 12 times Punjab Kings have won. That is, Rajasthan's pan is very heavy in the head to head

Iyer is in danger from Sandeep

The performance of Punjab Kings (Pbks Vs RR) captain Shreyas Iyer has been very stormy this season. He has hit two consecutive half -centuries in two matches so far. But Iyer's figures in front of Sandeep Sharma are surprising. Actually, Sandeep Sharma has bowled a total of 56 balls to Shreyas Iyer and made his victim twice.

At the same time, during this time he has been able to score only 47 runs on Sandeep's balls. That is, Sandeep can become a big threat in front of Iyer.

Ryan will be hunted

This season, the bat of young caretaker captain Ryan Parag of Rajasthan Royals (PBKS Vs RR) has flopped in the opening matches. At the same time, Yuzvendra Chahal can become a big problem against Punjab Kings as Ryan's performance has not been special against the spinners and both these players were part of Rajasthan, due to which Chahal can attack Ryan in a weak place.

At the same time, apart from this, Yashasvi Jaiswal, who is out of form, will also have to survive by Arshdeep Singh, who has dismissed him twice in the IPL.

Weather and Pitch Report

At the Maharaja Yadavindra Singh Cricket Stadium in Mullanpur, high -speed bowlers get additional bounce in the initial over, but after that batsmen can easily bat on this pitch. For this reason, the team, which win the toss on most occasions, decides to bowl first so that the dew becomes a little easier batting in the second innings. At the same time, talking about the weather here, the rain will not come at all during the match, but during the match, the players may have to face a little heat.
