PBKS vs RCB Head to Head Records Ahead of The 37th Match of IPL 2025
PBKS vs RCB preview: head-to-head stats, form guide, and key insights ahead of IPL 2025 clash in Mullanpur, Chandigarh

Punjab Kings and Royal Challengers Bengaluru will square off once again in IPL 2025, just three days after their previous encounter in Bengaluru. PBKS came out on top in that rain-curtailed 14-over contest, adapting better to tough conditions to secure a five-wicket win. Now playing at home in New Chandigarh, Punjab will aim to complete the double over RCB and solidify their place in the top half of the points table.
PBKS have been one of the most well-rounded teams this season, with five wins from seven games, a balanced squad, and growing belief under head coach Ricky Ponting. Their batting line-up has delivered with depth and consistency, while their bowling—led by a resurgent Yuzvendra Chahal—has turned matches in their favor.
Chahal, in particular, was instrumental in defending 111 against KKR at this very venue, underlining Punjab’s ability to thrive even in low-scoring games. Meanwhile, RCB remain winless at home but boast a perfect away record, with impressive victories in Mumbai, Kolkata, and Chennai.
Phil Salt’s aggression at the top, backed by steady contributions from Kohli, Patidar, and Tim David, has been the cornerstone of their success on the road. Their bowling lacks a marquee spinner, but Krunal Pandya and Suyash Sharma have done well in containing roles, while Hazlewood and Bhuvneshwar Kumar continue to shine with the new ball.
Historically, PBKS lead the head-to-head record against RCB with 18 wins from 34 matches, including their recent triumph. RCB have won three of the last five encounters, but Punjab have taken two of the most recent, including this season’s first clash—tilting the momentum in their favor.
