Yash Dayal struck early to get rid of Priyansh Arya in Qualifier 1 of IPL 2025 between Punjab Kings and Royal Challengers Bengaluru at the Mullanpur Cricket Stadium. The 23-year-old departed after scoring seven runs off five deliveries.

The left-arm seamer bowled a delivery on the good length outside the off stump channel. Priyansh leaned into the cover drive and timed it quite sweetly, However, he could not find the desired placement and ended up offering a straightforward catch to Krunal Pandya at cover.

Dayal secured his second breakthrough in his third over as Nehal Wadhera (eight off 10) fell victim to a half-hearted drive, which ended up disturbing his stumps. Wadhera was the fifth batter to fall for PBKS. RCB were on an absolute roll after winnning the toss and electing to field first.

The winner of the game will straightaway secure a berth in the final. The summit clash will be played at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedad on Tuesday, June 3. Given RCB impeccable start with the ball, they seem the favourites to be going through.

As far as their standings after the league phase is concerned, PBKS and RCB won nine, lost four, and had a no-result apiece. Both of the franchises ended up on 19 points. Although PBKS topped the points table courtesy of their marginally superior net run rate (+0.372 vs 0.301).
