Match preview – Punjab Kings vs Royal Challengers Bangalore, Indian Premier League 2025 2025, Final
Big picture: Holy Trinity break-up
Seven teams have named their names on the IPL Trophy. One of them is no longer present. When it started, there were no part of the two leagues.
Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) and Punjab Kings (PBK) IPL are ever-present. He has made four finals between them, but has neither won the title.
Instead, RCB and PBK are combined with Delhi Capital (DC), another trophy-cum-OG franchise, which refers to the Social Media’s Holy Trinity of the IPL. The surname has a certain amount of ridicule, but it has been feeling a soft, warm, even with fans of three teams, it is used with a sense of irony and solidarity with its fellow victims.
On Tuesday night, Trinity will no longer be Trinity. One of RCB and PBK would finally have won the IPL in its 18th attempt. Other … Okay, you will not want to stay in that camp.
For a PBKS fan, this will be another pre -seson reset – they have lots to keep count – nothing, and one for an antibacide finish Ingredient campaign This will make a rolling sports film: A coach that went out of his way to bring a captain to a captain to prove, both of them created a place for a group of unaccounted, to play the local players unwanted to play the local players, hoping a team that was only known misery.
For an RCB fan, this will be the fourth defeat in the fourth final, and all the promises of a new way – a team that finally get the right balance between the bat and the ball, the top -order flash and the depth of the batting, between the superstar and the support cast – is coming at the same old end.
It will be above all, for another bitter shock Virat KohliThose who have placed another season together with run-scoring-500-Plus run in the eighth record-one tail-end of 12 months, including the T20 World Cup and Champions Trophy Triumphs on one side and a bitwatch test retirement on the other. Destiny, of course, can’t plan the 18th Trophy-cum IPL season, which is on its back with 18?
The former RCB batsman believes that the team has covered all the locations as it prepares to play Punjab Kings in the IPL final on Tuesday.
Then, two teams, tantalizali, are close to finding the supply that has removed them for 17 years, but will fall into the final stages of a trip. Rarely, an IPL final has promised to be very happy and very heartbroken at once.
In Spotlight: Rajat Patidar and Yuzvendra Chahal
SilverWinning six in qualifier 1 against PBK was a symbolic moment for RCB, because his batting approach IPL 2025 The captain who took over at the beginning of the season is reflected. He also set the tone quickly, with a player-of-the-match performance, which helped RCB defeat Chennai Super Kings (CSK) for the first time in 17 years and for the first time in ten years in Mumbai Indians in Mumbai Indians in Mumbai Indians. However, their returns are closed, and their number for the season – 23.83 runs at an average of 286 and a strike rate of 142.28 – does not capture their impact. However, the dip will not disintegrate it; He will come out to play his shots, and how it may just have to bat against a powerhouse PBKS line-up in Ahmedabad, one of the most scoring places this year.
Yuzvendra Chahal Once the IPL has won, technically, he has played a match for MI when he won the title in 2013. They will not feel that he won it, however: he is in two previous finals, with RCB and Rajasthan Royals (RR), and lost both. On Tuesday, he will be against RCB, with which he played for eight sessions. A hand injury dropped him out of PBK’s defeat in Qualifier 1, but with both of them winning the match against two other old teams. In Chahal’s last game before the injury broke, his middle -over craft helped RR to slow down RR after chasing 220 – PBK eventually won by 10 runs. Then, on his return, he took Suryakumar Yadav’s big wicket in qualifier 2 against MI. Chahal has already hurt RCB once this season, Taking 2 for 11 In low scoring, rain-shorted competition in Bengaluru; Can he do it again in the biggest match of the season?

Team News and Sambhavna XII: Will David play?
A big injury is suspected from the last around Tim davidWhich missed the last two matches of RCB with a hamstring injury. If she is fit, she is likely to return to her line-up directly at the price of Liam Livingstone.

Two days after winning the qualifier 2 against Mi in the same ground, PBK is likely to stick to the same combination. Chahal played against MI and bowled all his quota, but PBKS bowling coach James James Hopes revealed after the game that he was less than full fitness. If Chahal’s hand does not allow him to play in the final, PBK can either go with just a spinner or bring it to Harpreet Brar.

Big question

Pitch and Conditions: There is a reserved day in the final
The Narendra Modi Stadium has been the highest scoring of regular places of this IPL, in which the teams batted for the first time in eight innings and batted in the other innings – and were running the last 220 four times. The first team has won six matches out of eight matches, but the toss -winning team has tried to chase – possibly due to the difficulty of assessing yoga in high scoring situations – doing so in eight matches seven times.
PBK has played here twice this season and won both times. He played his first match of the season here and scored 243 runs for 5 in tone-setting performance, and returned to Qualifier 2, where he reduced RCB a controversial defeat for RCB in Qualifier 1, pursuing a target of 204 with an over against MI.
RCB comes in three meetings to beat PBK twice, but will be denied not being played in Ahmedabad this season yet.
The pitch square for the final will have a mixed -mitti (red and black) surface – this is where PBK opened its season with a win over the Gujarat Titans (GT).
The two -hour magic of unmatched rain delayed the beginning of Qualifier 2. There is a possibility of rain again on the final day, but according to the forecast one. A reserve day is in place, the finals should not be completed on Tuesday.
With Elite Control and Playoff Liney, he can be an ex-factor of RCB in the finals
Main Statistics and Strategic Points: Hazelwood Danger
Josh hazalwood Although this may not happen, Hazelwood can play an important role in shaping the final yet. He has already taken six wickets in three matches against PBK this season, and Josh England and Shreyas Iyer rejected twice twice. His T20 record against Iyer Unprecedented is: 11 runs in 22 balls, and four wickets.
Suyash Sharma The left -handed batsmen (193.00, 9.81) during IPL 2025 have a marked priority for bowling for right -handed batsmen (an average of 31.57, economy rate), and conversely PBKS (five wickets at 7.40 and five wickets at 7.40 and 5.84 economy at 7.40. Nehal waderaThe only left -handed batsman in the mid -order of PBKS hit Suyash in 21 in 12 balls during a win on RCB in this season of PBKS. He fell for a low score in the other two meetings, beyond which Suyash took a joint 5 for 43 in seven overs.
While Kohli has freed his normal view of T20 batting, he still shows a tendency to slow down in the middle overs – especially the period of immediately after the powerplay. In IPL 2025, out of 28 batsmen facing at least 50 balls in 7-10 overs, Kohli’s 109.61 strike rate is the third lowest, which is just above Ajinkya Rahane (102.97) and KL Rahul (107.31). If Kohli survives the powerplay, his partner at the crease during the early mid -overs, and the PBKS choice of bowlers in that period may be important for the flow of the game.
Patidars can destroy spin on their day, but he goes to the final against Harpreet Brar with a quite quiet record (18 balls, 21 runs, a dismissal) And Yuzvendra Chahal (27 balls, 40 runs, two dismissal,

Rajgir: Hockey India president Dilip Tirkey on Sunday confirmed that the team Gonasika, who competed in the Hockey India League in the previous season and finished seventh, would leave the tournament and be replaced by a new team. Odisha Warriors, the winners of the first edition of The Women Hills, will not participate in the next version and will be replaced by a new franchise. The former India Hockey captain said, “We will have a mini auction, and the new teams will be able to choose their players during that time. Also, the remaining teams will release some players, and some of them will be retained, but we have not yet decided on Nitty-Grittiies.” She said that there is a discussion about whether two more teams can be added to the women’s tournaments, which currently have four teams. Meanwhile, the tournament will be held in Ranchi and either Bhubaneswar or Rourkela in a third city. However, it will not happen anywhere in North India. “The names of Chandigarh and Mohali came out during the discussion, and we wanted to catch HIL matches in North India. But we analyzed that there is a heavy fog during the winter, which could delay flights and make it difficult to catch matches on time,” Tirkey said. Tirkey also confirmed that the players not paid by Odisha Warriors after the tournament were fully compensated with Hockey India Award Money Fund. He said that it is expected that there will be no such delay when the tournament is held again next year. Regarding India’s men’s team, who is currently competing in the Asia Cup after losing seven serial games in the Pro League, Tirkey rested a lot. “We have not put any pressure on the coach for previous demonstrations. He has won us a bronze medal in the Olympics and a gold in the Asian Games. Therefore, we are confident that he will be able to take the team globally in a year,” Tirkey said. However, the situation was different when they talked about the women’s team, which would start her campaign in Hangzo in China this week in Hangzo. He said, “The coaches, assistant staff and players of the women’s team need to focus on working hard. It is true that senior players are struggling with injuries, and we do not have many experienced replacements, but we can only hope that they will perform well,” they said.

For goals, Mandeep Singh opened the scoring after Sukhjit Singh with a field goal in the fourth minute, and Harmanpreet Singh The lead in the next minute doubled after winning a series of India’s penalty corner.

The Kavabe was once on the clock with a minute and once on the target as the protecting the Karkara was eventually dissolved after the ball was distanced away from the structure. Giving an opportunity to equal, Japan continued to apply pressure, but managed to capture India, even Harmanpreet received a yellow card. However, Carcaera was fantastic-especially when Japan won four back-to-back penalty corners in the second quarter and then three gradual corners in the final quarter. During one of them, he first stopped the ball with his left leg and then dives to block the deformed shot coming out of the rebound. Even Krishna Bahadur Pathak, playing his 150th match, about five savings, but it was a curkera that stole the show. Asked what is happening in his mind when Japan continued to win a gradual penalty corner, Indian Custodian said, “We planned a way to protect the PC, and we executed it. Certainly, there is a lot of space to improve. But we watched videos of the match against China and worked on wherever we did.” While Karkera has done a lot of work on his reflex, facing 500 shots in training sessions, he specially focused on counter control before the tournament, which was clear the way he managed the team as Japan had counters late stages of the game. Coach Craig Fulton was also happy with Karkera and Vivek’s performance, but prevented the absence of field balls despite the team making several opportunities. “We are really well buried, and that part of our game was excellent. We cannot convert some more field goals, but the data for us in that aspect are really high. We could not finish everything we start now, ”Fulton said. However, playing jointly with heat, playing such a high pressure game, left the team low on energy in the third quarter. The coach said, “These games are super difficult at 3 pm and 1 pm. Nobody really realize it. You do not play in 35-degrees with this humidity in summer, unless you come from Malaysia or are hot all the time,” the coach said. It was during this period that Japan pulled back one and worked hard in the last quarter, but India eventually held to win. Earlier in the day, China scored 13 goals against Kazakhstan after winning the second minute through the penalty corner. After that initial hiccup, China dominated and hoped to carry on that pace against Japan on Monday. India, meanwhile, will face the next Kazakhstan.
