Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) will take on Punjab Kings (PBKS) in the final of the IPL 2025. RCB qualified for the summit clash after they beat PBKS in Qualifier 1. The Shreyas-Iyer-led side, however, beat the Mumbai Indians to book a return fixture for the IPL title. There is very little to choose from when it comes to the teams' performance in IPL 2025, and the final promises to be a cracking affair.

Both teams have not won an IPL trophy in 18 years, and the wait will end for one of the teams, while the other will suffer yet another heartbreak. It will be a high-pressure game, and the team that is temperamentally better will hold a significant advantage. The match will be played at the Narendra Modi Stadium and start at 7:30 PM IST.

RCB vs PBKS IPL Final Pitch Report

The surface at the Narendra Modi Stadium should be a great one to bat on. The previous game at the venue between PBKS and MI saw MI chase a 200+ score. The batters should enjoy the conditions again, but overcast weather could provide some assistance to the bowlers.
