Match 66 of the 2025 Indian Premier League season sees the Punjab Kings (PBKS) take on the Delhi Capitals (DC) at the Sawai Mansingh Stadium in Jaipur this Saturday. Punjab have already confirmed their place in the playoffs, currently holding third place on the table with 17 points from 12 games. With two league matches left, they will look to climb into the top two, a position that offers an additional opportunity to reach the final.

Punjab Kings Overview

After more than a decade of waiting, Punjab have made a successful return to the IPL playoffs. The team’s consistent form this season has been underpinned by a powerful batting lineup and key individual performances.

Openers Prabhsimran Singh and Priyansh Arya have laid solid foundations throughout the season. Prabhsimran has accumulated 458 runs from 12 innings, while Arya has contributed 356 runs. In the abandoned fixture between these two sides earlier this season in Dharamsala, the duo had raced to 122 in just 10 overs—highlighting their destructive potential.

Shreyas Iyer has been central in holding the innings together in the middle overs, compiling 435 runs at an impressive strike rate of 175. Lower down, Nehal Wadhera has chipped in with timely contributions, striking around 160 when needed most. Shashank Singh has also stood out as a finisher, managing pressure situations effectively and swinging games in the death overs.

Punjab’s overseas options have now been bolstered with the return of Marcus Stoinis, Josh Inglis, Aaron Hardie, and Kyle Jamieson. While only two are expected to play, Stoinis and Inglis may be favored due to their explosive capabilities.

On the bowling front, Arshdeep Singh has led the attack, claiming 16 wickets while maintaining an economy rate of 8.70. However, Marco Jansen has had a subdued season. Spinner Yuzvendra Chahal has been inconsistent—threatening on his day but expensive when off form. Harpreet Brar, after picking up 3 for 22 against Rajasthan, could play a pivotal role again, especially in the middle overs.

Delhi Capitals Overview

Delhi’s campaign started brightly with four consecutive victories but quickly deteriorated. In their next nine games, they managed just two wins and lost seven times, ending their playoff hopes. Their final match offers a chance to regroup and finish the season on a more positive note.

KL Rahul has been the standout performer with the bat, registering 504 runs in 12 matches. Alongside him, Abishek Porel has made a useful contribution, scoring 301 runs at a strike rate of 147. Middle-order support has come from Axar Patel and Tristan Stubbs, who have added resilience when required. Axar, who missed the last match due to illness, is expected to return.

Ashutosh Sharma has been a late-season bright spark, showing composure during high-pressure finishes. Delhi’s bowling attack, though, has struggled without Mitchell Starc. Mustafizur Rahman has provided control and experience, while Dushmantha Chameera has been more expensive. Spinner Kuldeep Yadav has delivered consistently, with 13 wickets and a tight economy of 6.85.

Vipraj Nigam, although picking up nine wickets, has proven costly, going at over nine runs an over. Mukesh Kumar has shown promise but conceded heavily in his final over against Mumbai. Punjab’s batters are expected to target him and Chameera in the final overs.

Sawai Mansingh Stadium Pitch Report:

The Sawai Mansingh Stadium in Jaipur has hosted five games in IPL 2025. The average first-innings total has been around 200. Three games have been won by teams batting first, while chasing teams have emerged victorious on a couple of occasions. The new ball could swing around for the first few overs and the opening batters will have to be wary. Once the shine goes away, runs could be scored for fun.

Weather Conditions in Jaipur

Weather conditions in Jaipur are forecast to be hot and dry, with no threat of rain. The pitch should remain true throughout the match, setting up the possibility for a high-scoring contest.

Impact Player: Mukesh Kumar

PBKS vs DC Probable Best Performers

Probable Best Batter – Shreyas Iyer

Shreyas Iyer has been in magnificent form in IPL 2025. He has been equally destructive against spinners and pacers. In 12 matches, he has amassed 435 runs at an average of 48.33 and a strike rate of 174.70. The PBKS captain dropped himself down to No. 5 in the last game against the Rajasthan Royals. It will be interesting to see where he bats on Saturday.

Probable best bowler – Arshdeep Singh

Arshdeep Singh had a forgettable outing against the Royals in the last game, conceding 60 runs in his four overs without picking up a wicket. The PBKS seamer tends to go for runs in some matches, but bounces back strongly every time. This season, he has bagged 16 wickets from 12 games at an average of 21.94. He will have a crucial role to play against the Capitals.

Toss Strategy: Prefer Batting First

Given the last two fixtures at this venue have favored sides batting first, captains are expected to opt for setting a target if they win the toss.

Prediction

Scenario 1

Punjab Kings win the toss and bowl
PP Score – 50-60
DC – 180-190
Punjab Kings win the match

Scenario 2

Delhi Capitals win the toss and bowl
PP score – 60-70
PBKS – 200-210
Punjab Kings win the match

Punjab Kings have delivered one of their most complete IPL campaigns in recent memory. With a playoff place already locked in, their focus will now be on securing a top-two finish to increase their chances of progressing to the final. Delhi, having fallen short of expectations, will try to end their season with a competitive showing, though the odds are stacked against them.

Eventually, LSG held their nerve and clinched the win comfortably.

In IPL 2025, the playoff-bound teams are now finalized. The remaining seven matches will decide the top-four order. Each team aims to finish in the top two positions.

Prasidh Krishna: India’s Dynamic Fast-Medium Bowler

Early Career & Domestic Rise

Prasidh Krishna began his journey in Bengaluru, Karnataka, where he honed his raw pace and bounce through local cricket academies . Initially overlooked, he broke into the spotlight as a net bowler for Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) during the 2017 IPL season . His relentless work ethic paid off when Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) signed him in 2018 as a replacement for Kamlesh Nagarkoti, marking his IPL debut against Mumbai Indians . Domestically, Krishna became a key figure for Karnataka, showcasing his ability to extract bounce and trouble batsmen. His performances helped Karnataka win the 2019–20 Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy and Vijay Hazare Trophy , cementing his reputation as a rising star in Indian cricket .

International Breakthrough

Krishna’s international debut came on March 23, 2021 , in an ODI against England, where he stunned the cricketing world with 4/54 —India’s best ODI debut bowling figures . His ability to bowl yorkers and maintain accuracy under pressure made him a vital cog in India’s limited-overs setup. Transitioning to T20Is, he became a reliable option for death-over spells, leveraging his height (6’4”) to generate steep bounce and awkward angles . Despite fluctuating form, his knack for breakthroughs in crunch moments kept him in the selectors’ radar.

Prasidh Krishna IPL factfile

– After finishing as the joint second-highest wicket-taker in the 2017-18 Vijay Hazare Trophy to help Karnataka win the title, Prasidh Krishna was signed by Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) as an injury replacement. He ended up with 10 wickets from seven matches

– He had a couple of quiet seasons before taking 12 wickets to help KKR reach the final in IPL 2021.

– In 2022, he had his best IPL season after being bought by Rajasthan Royals (RR). He took 19 wickets from 17 games and was more economical than ever before.

– A lumbar stress fracture and then a quad injury ruled him out of the 2023 and 2024 seasons respectively. Gujarat Titans (GT) then splashed INR 9.5 crore to secure his services ahead of IPL 2025.

Strong Zones & Legacy

Krishna’s strongest zone lies in exploiting pitch conditions —especially pitches offering assistance to seamers. His 6’4” frame enables him to extract extra bounce, making life difficult for batsmen in both powerplay and death overs . While consistency remains a challenge, his 4/54 on ODI debut and IPL economy rate of 8.2 highlight his game-changing potential . As a Karnataka icon and Indian national team member, Krishna’s legacy hinges on evolving into a consistent all-format performer , bridging the gap between domestic brilliance and global excellence.

Mohammed Siraj: India’s Relentless Pace Sensation – A Career Unfolding

Born on March 13, 1994 , in Hyderabad, Telangana , Mohammed Siraj emerged from humble beginnings to become one of India’s most feared fast bowlers . His journey, marked by raw aggression and technical evolution, reflects a relentless pursuit of excellence.

Early Career: The Spark of Potential

Siraj’s talent ignited at 16 , when he took 9 wickets in an innings for his local team, showcasing early promise 6. This breakthrough performance caught the eye of Hyderabad’s domestic selectors, propelling him into competitive cricket. His fiery pace and ability to generate bounce from flat Indian pitches set him apart, even as he honed his craft against seasoned batsmen.

Domestic Cricket: Building Foundations

Representing Hyderabad in domestic tournaments, Siraj became a linchpin of their bowling attack. His performances in the Ranji Trophy and Vijay Hazare Trophy highlighted his adaptability across formats, though red-ball cricket remained his primary focus initially. His consistency at the state level earned him recognition, paving the way for higher honors.

International Career: From Struggles to Stardom

Siraj’s international debut came after years of perseverance. Initially criticized for inconsistency, he transformed into a key member of India’s pace battery . By 2025 , he had claimed nearly 200 international wickets , excelling in both ODIs and T20Is . His role in India’s 2024 T20 World Cup triumph cemented his legacy as a big-match performer. Known for his aggressive yorkers and death-over mastery , Siraj thrives under pressure, often dismantling tailends with precision.

IPL Journey: Rise to Prominence

Siraj’s IPL career began with the Sunrisers Hyderabad , but it was his move to Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) in 2018 that defined his trajectory . Becoming RCB’s go-to powerplay bowler , he mastered swinging the new ball, consistently troubling openers with sharp seam movement . In 2023 , he delivered his best IPL season, taking 19 wickets in 14 matches , while his 15-wicket haul in 2024 underscored his reliability . Notably, he became the first RCB bowler to claim a five-wicket haul in IPL history , a testament to his match-winning potential. In 2025 , Gujarat Titans acquired him, banking on his experience and strike-bowling prowess .

Strong Zones: Powerplay Precision & Death Bowling

Siraj’s forte lies in exploiting the new ball’s swing , particularly in the powerplay overs , where his accuracy and movement unsettle top-order batsmen . Equally lethal in the death overs , his variations—** Yorkers, slower balls, and sharp bouncers**—make him a dual-threat. His ability to reverse-swing older balls adds another layer to his arsenal, often turning matches in India’s favor.

Legacy: A Modern-Day Indian Pace Icon

From battling financial hardships to becoming India’s premier fast bowler , Siraj’s story symbolizes resilience 9. His 200+ international wickets and 2024 World Cup glory mark him as a generational talent. As he enters the twilight of his career, his influence on young Indian pacers ensures a lasting legacy—a bowler who redefined intensity and heart in Indian cricket.

RCB vs SRH Key battles:

Virat Kohli vs Pat Cummins

The former RCB skipper Virat Kohli is the leading run scorer for RCB in the ongoing season with more than 500 runs under his belt.

Kohli will have to tackle the accurate bowling of the opposition captain Pat Cummins, who will look to build on the good performances he has delivered in the last couple of matches.

Rajat Patidar vs Zeeshan Ansari

The RCB captain Rajat Patidar, who is expected to feature in the upcoming match against SRH, will look to keep up the good work he has done so far while batting in the middle overs.

The right-hander will go head-to-head against Zeeshan Ansari, who, although he hasn’t picked up a lot of wickets but has looked the most effective bowler in a bowling attack which lacks an expierence spinner.

Bhuvneshwar Kumar vs Abhishek Sharma

Abhishek Sharma, who is coming on the back of a match-winning half-century, will look to add to his tally of runs in the game against RCB on Friday.

Abhishek will have to deal with the swing of Bhuvneshwar Kumar, who will hope to get things right in the last couple of matches to help his team gather the momentum on their side.

Ishan Kishan vs Josh Hazlewood

Ishan Kishan looked in good touch in the previous match against LSG and would want to make the most of it in the remaining two encounters.

The wicketkeeper batter will be up against Josh Hazlewood, who has been the pick of the bowlers for RCB in the ongoing IPL season.

Toss Prediction

Winning the toss is crucial. Batting first offers a slight edge, as teams scoring 180+ win 65% of matches here.

RCB vs SRH Win Prediction

As per the current form of the two teams, Royal Challengers Bengaluru are better placed to win this contest. They have an added motivation of finishing in the top two having already qualified for the playoffs.

M Shahrukh Khan: India’s Dynamic Batter and Emerging All-Rounder

M Shahrukh Khan, a right-handed batter and off-spin bowler, has carved a niche for himself in Indian cricket through relentless aggression and adaptability. Born in 1995, his journey from Tamil Nadu’s domestic circuit to becoming a key IPL performer showcases his tenacity and evolving skill set . Below is a comprehensive breakdown of his career:

Early Career: Foundations of a Finisher

Shahrukh’s cricketing journey began in youth tournaments, where his all-round talent shone. In 2014, he dominated the Under-19 Cooch Behar Trophy, scoring 624 runs and claiming 18 wickets , signaling his potential as a hard-hitting lower-order batter and handy off-spinner . This performance laid the groundwork for his rise in senior cricket.

Domestic Cricket: Building Consistency

Shahrukh made his first-class debut for Tamil Nadu in 2018 against Kerala, cementing his place as a reliable middle-order batsman . Over six seasons, he became known for his ability to accelerate in pressure situations, often anchoring Tamil Nadu’s lower order. His consistent performances earned him leadership roles in Tamil Nadu’s T20 teams, including stints with the Lyca Kovai Kings and Siechem Madurai Panthers in the Tamil Nadu Premier League . In 2024, his value surged when the Gujarat Titans acquired him for INR 7.4 crore ahead of the IPL, a testament to his domestic prowess .

International Cricket: The Elusive Cap

Despite his domestic success, Shahrukh remains uncapped at the international level , competing with India’s stacked middle-order options. However, his aggressive style and off-spin variations have kept him in contention for limited-overs roles. Coaches often praise his adaptability in high-stakes games, a trait that could bridge the gap to national selection if form persists .

IPL Career: The Rise of a Finisher

Shahrukh entered the IPL in 2021 , signed by Punjab Kings (PBKS) for INR 5.25 crore , where he quickly became a fan favorite for his explosive lower-order cameos . Over 52 matches , he has scored 643 runs at an average of 20.74 , including a solitary half-century . His turning point came in 2024 when Gujarat Titans retained him for TATA IPL 2025 , valuing his match-finishing ability and fielding sharpness 6. Notably, his role clarity under Titans—often promoted up the order—has amplified his impact, exemplified by his crucial knocks in tight chases .

Strengths: Power-Hitting and Tactical Flexibility

Shahrukh’s strongest zone is his ability to dominate spinners and late-innings death bowling. His off-spin , though not primary, provides tactical depth, allowing captains to exploit matchups. Additionally, his athletic fielding and composure under pressure make him a multifaceted asset.

Legacy: A Star in the Making

Though still building his legacy, Shahrukh’s journey reflects resilience and growth. From a domestic stalwart to an IPL mainstay, he embodies the modern cricketer’s blend of power, adaptability, and versatility. If he secures an international cap, his legacy could evolve into that of a reliable finisher or impact all-rounder , inspiring future generations in Tamil Nadu and beyond.
