Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) are all set to take on Punjab Kings (PBKS) in the final of the IPL 2025 which is set to take place on June 3 (Tuesday) at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad. This is the first time that RCB will be looking to win the trophy, in what is their fourth fginal appearance after 2009, 2011 and 2016. For that they need to field a strong playing XI.
Virat Kohli and Phil Salt will continue to open the batting, with captain Rajat Patidar at no.3. Mayank Agarwal will be the no.4 batter, with Jitesh Sharma at no.5. Tim David has been rested for the past three games, and RCB might field him at no.6, as he might recover from the niggle that kept him out.
In that case, it will be Liam Livingstone who will make way for him. Romario Shepherd and Krunal Pandya will complete the batting order. Pandya and impact player Suyash Sharma will lead the spin attack. Josh Hazlewood will lead the pace attack alongside Yash Dayal and Bhuvneshwar Kumar.
