IPL 2025: PBKS vs RR Stats & Records at Maharaja Yadavindra Singh International Cricket Stadium, Mullanpur
Punjab Kings are unbeaten in the tournament.
5 Min Read


Punjab Kings seem to have found a new wind in Indian Premier League 2025 winning both their games, and not even having played at home. PBKS's game against Rajasthan Royals, their third in the tournament, will be their first home game of the season. Just like 2024, PBKS will play five of their home games at the Maharaja Yadavindra Singh International Cricket Stadium in Mullanpur and the other two in Dharamsala.
PBKS are sitting pretty at the top of the points table while RR are second from last. Both teams did register wins in their most recent match. PBKS had an easy time against LSG. Punjab's bowlers set in a powerplay collapse, but Nicholas Pooran did as much as he could. But once a second collapse beckoned, Ayush Badoni and Abdul Samad gave the LSG total some respectability. PBKS made light work of the target banking on fifties from Prabhsimran Singh and Shreyas Iyer. Digvesh Rathi took both wickets to fall, but Nehal Wadhera too joined the party with some timely hits.
RR beat CSK in Guwahati in their last game. Nitish Rana took the attack to the bowlers in the powerplay, but the rest of the batting could not keep up with him. Jofra Archer's economical powerplay overs put RR ahead in the chase, and Wanindu Hasaranga induced a middle-order collapse. Ruturaj Gaikwad stood strong through it all, but his dismissal sealed the deal. Ravindra Jadeja and MS Dhoni kept the chase going till the final over, but RR prevailed by just 6 runs.
