RCB vs PBKS IPL 2025 Match No 34 LIVE: Rajat Patidar’s Royal Challengers Bengaluru or Shreyas Iyer-led Punjab Kings can both join Delhi Capitals at the top with a win on Friday.
Royal Challengers Bengaluru and Punjab Kings are both eyeing a place in the top two of the Points Table when they face off on match No. 34 of the IPL 2025 season at the M. Chinnaswamy Stadium on Friday. RCB and PBKS are currently 3rd and 4th on the Points Table with four wins each to their name.
Shreyas Iyer’s PBKS will be full of confidence having created a new record earlier this week by defending the lowest-ever score in IPL history against the defending champions Kolkata Knight Riders. The star of the show was leg-spinner Yuzvendra Chahal, who was bought for Rs 18 crore at the IPL 2025 mega auction, and claimed four wickets in the match.
Hosts RCB are also coming into this clash with a win under their belt over Rajasthan Royals. Rajat Patidar’s side easily over-hauled the 174-run target with nine wickets to spare thanks to brilliant fifties by openers Phil Salt and Virat Kohli.
PBKS took the big decision to drop all-rounder Marcus Stoinis and hand debut to Josh Inglis but the Australian wicketkeeper failed with the bat. If PBKS and head coach Ricky Ponting decide to continue with Inglis, they there could be a toss-up between Glenn Maxwell and Stoinis as the former is going through a lean run with the bat.
