PBKS vs KKR IPL 2025 Key Battles
It will be a big test for captain Shreyas Iyer, who is leading Punjab Kings this time, after not being retained by Kolkata Knight Riders in IPL 2024, despite winning the title. Shreyas Iyer hit a 82 in his last match, and a similar inning will be a statement to his ex-team. Iyer's biggest challenge will be playing KKR's legend Sunil Narine, who is in good form having picked three wickets in the last match. Sunil Narine with the bat was also explosive at the tricky Chennai wicket, so an even more lethal hitting should be expected in the flat track of New Chandigarh. Prabhsimran Singh averages just above 26 in IPL 2025 but has a strike rate of 160. Vaibhav Arora's test will be to pick him up early and be economical as he was the only KKR bowler to bowl above 5's economy in the last match. Arshdeep Singh has seven wickets in IPL 2025, being the side's highest wicket-taker. His target should be to pick Quinton de Kock with the new ball, as he has been out early in major times this season. Quinton de Kock must also try to get back to runs, as this batting-friendly wicket can be his chance to find form.
