PBKS vs RCB Live Score, IPL 2025 Qualifier 1: Punjab Kings vs Royal Challengers Bengaluru fight for a final berth
PBKS vs RCB Live Score, IPL 2025 Qualifier 1: For all the narratives that have shaped IPL 2025, none match the emotional depth and subtext of Qualifier 1 between Punjab Kings and Royal Challengers Bengaluru. These two teams, long denied IPL glory, now stand on the cusp of a breakthrough, with a direct ticket to the final up for grabs. The stakes are immense, not just for the teams but for the generations of fans who have ridden the rollercoaster of heartbreak and fleeting rejuvenated under the leadership duo of Ricky Ponting and Shreyas Iyer, have rediscovered their swagger. A clear identity, bold selections, and a fearlessness in play have helped them rise from a decade of mediocrity. Securing a top-two finish by thrashing Mumbai Indians was a statement in itself. Their squad exudes balance, with Josh Inglis and Marcus Stoinis lending power and flexibility, while Arshdeep Singh leads the bowling group with too, have undergone a transformation—this time, a more methodical one. With a cohesive unit led by Jitesh Sharma and powered by Kohli's vintage form, they've turned consistency into strength. Their bowling attack, possibly reinforced by a fit-again Josh Hazlewood, offers a formidable the game hinges on fine margins. Arshdeep Singh's record against Phil Salt and Bhuvneshwar Kumar's impact in the PowerPlay are critical dynamics. Shreyas Iyer's phenomenal numbers this season are balanced by his struggles against RCB, while Kohli's legacy against Punjab, especially while chasing, looms also history—PBKS's last final appearance was in 2014, and RCB's three final losses (2009, 2011, 2016) remain etched in IPL folklore. Now, both teams arrive not as underdogs, but as deserving contenders, having rewritten the field, the camaraderie between Ponting and Iyer has translated into on-field clarity, while Jitesh's words post-qualification—echoing Dinesh Karthik's mentorship—reveal a team mentally tuned for the big Mullanpur evening promises intensity, drama, and perhaps a moment that finally alters the course of one team's IPL story. In a game shaped by pain and potential, the winner moves a step closer to salvation; the loser, left to navigate familiar despair. This isn't just a Qualifier—it's a clash of legacy, redemption, and dreams deferred too long.

IPL 2025 Final: BCCI plans special tribute for Operation Sindoor heroes
The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) announced on Tuesday that it has invited the chiefs of the Indian Army, Navy, and Air Force to attend the IPL 2025 final on June 3 in Ahmedabad.

'We've extended invitations to the top leadership of the Indian Armed Forces and their personnel for the IPL final in Ahmedabad to commemorate the success of Operation Sindoor,' Saikia told PTI. He emphasized the BCCI's deep respect for the armed forces, stating, 'This is our way of saluting the bravery, dedication, and sacrifices of our soldiers. While cricket holds a special place in the hearts of Indians, the safety and sovereignty of our nation are paramount.'
