Punjab Kings and Royal Challengers Bengaluru will take on each other for a place in the final at the Maharaja Yadavindra Singh International Cricket Stadium, Mullanpur, Chandigarh, in the ongoing IPL 2025 on Thursday.
These two teams have ticked the right boxes for the major part of the season and they have been coming up with a collective effort. Shreyas Iyer has been phenomenal as a leader, whereas Rajat Patidar’s form has gone down a bit in the last few games.
Both of these teams had won one match apiece when they faced each other earlier in the season.
