Match Preview : PBKS vs RR at Mullanpur
🏏 IPL 2025 Match Preview: Punjab Kings vs Rajasthan Royals — Clash of Contrasts at मुल्लांपुर
The Maharaja Yadavindra Singh International Cricket Stadium in Mullanpur is about to witness a riveting contest as high-flying Punjab Kings (PBKS) take on a struggling Rajasthan Royals (RR) side looking to course-correct under the returning leadership of Sanju Samson.
Pitch & Conditions: What’s Cooking at Mullanpur?
If you’re expecting a batting paradise, think again. The Mullanpur pitch has played slow in the past with only two 180+ scores in five IPL 2024 games here. Spinners and cutters thrive. Boundary dimensions are large — expect bowlers like Chahal and Hasaranga to rule the middle overs.
Weather forecast? Pleasant Chandigarh evening. No rain, but dew could make chasing slightly easier.
