Royal Challengers Bengaluru Vs Punjab Kings, IPL 2025: Ball-By-Ball Commentary

After a steady drizzle pushed back the start, play finally got underway at 9:45 pm, with Punjab Kings' captain Shreyas Iyer opting to bowl first after winning the toss. RCB라이브 바카라 batting order collapsed, managing just 95/9 in their 14 overs.

Batting conditions were challenging on a sticky pitch. With the rain having disrupted the flow, RCB's batsmen had a tough task ahead.

The decision proved to be spot on as Punjab's bowlers struck early, claiming three wickets in the shortened four-over powerplay, which was a result of the delayed start.

Phil Salt began with a solid boundary but fell in the very first over, attempting to smash Arshdeep Singh (2/23) out of the park, only for Josh Inglis to complete a fine catch behind the stumps.

Virat Kohli followed soon after, dismissed by Marco Jansen, who sprinted 20 meters back to take a brilliant catch off Arshdeep라이브 바카라 delivery.

RCB라이브 바카라 collapse continued, with reckless shots sending wickets tumbling. When Manoj Bhandage was dismissed by Jansen, RCB were in deep trouble at 42 for seven.

But then, Tim David fought hard with a solid 50 to keep RCB in the game.

The chase for Punjab Kings began shakily, losing both openers, Prabhsimran Singh and Priyansh Arya, early, leaving them at 33/2.

However, Nehal Wadhera remained calm under pressure, scoring an unbeaten 33 off 19 balls, including 3 fours and 3 sixes. His steady knock guided Punjab to a five-wicket win, quashing any hopes of an RCB comeback.
