Preview

The Shreyas Iyer-led Punjab Kings (PBKS) are all set to lock horns with Rajat Patidar's Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) in Match 37 of the ongoing IPL 2025 at the Maharaja Yadavindra Singh International Cricket Stadium in Mullanpur. Notably, the game is slated to take place on Sunday, April 20. This upcoming game will serve as a race to challenge the table-toppers, Delhi Capitals.

Punjab are once again ready to roar after a dominant win over Bengaluru just two days ago. The side is high on confidence and appears to be in great form, with five wins out of the seven matches they have played so far. Shreyas Iyer and his men will be looking to complete a double over the visitors to strengthen their position in the IPL points table. On the other hand, Rajat Patidar and his men will aim to pose a serious threat to the Punjab Kings in their own backyard.

The two IPL teams met just 48 hours ago, where Punjab Kings came out on top in a DLS-affected 14-over match. It was a stellar show, with both batters and bowlers stepping up when needed from either side, and fans will be hopeful for another strong performance in the next game.

Who holds a stronger chance to win this clash?

The hosts of this game seem to have the upper hand against RCB, given their current form. Shreyas Iyer and his men are in rhythm, and they have already shown they can handle RCB's power-packed line-up with ease. The side will be backing themselves for another win, especially with the home crowd behind them this time.
