RR vs PBKS, IPL 2025: Punjab Kings would be aiming to bounce back in the top two in the points table when they take on already eliminated Rajasthan Royals in their Indian Premier League (IPL) clash at the Sawai Mansingh Stadium in Jaipur in the afternoon game on Sunday.

The Kings have won seven of their eleven games, making it their finest season in ten years. With only three victories from 12 games, the Royals have had a terrible season and are therefore out of the running for the playoffs.

The balanced T20 surface at Jaipur's Sawai Mansingh Stadium is well-known for providing a thrilling contest between bat and ball. The track cracks more in afternoon matches, though, which benefits spinners. In their four IPL 2025 games played in Jaipur, RR has suffered three defeats.

This season, RR have suffered in every area, leading to a string of crushing losses. They will be keen to ruin other teams' chances even if they have been eliminated from the playoffs chase. Jofra Archer, their top pacer, would be sidelined for the remainder of the season, though.
