PBKS vs DC OneCricket's Predicted Winner

Punjab Kings to win this crucial encounter, riding on their exceptional recent form and superior team momentum throughout IPL 2025. PBKS's dynamic batting lineup featuring captain Shreyas Iyer, who has scored 435 runs at a strike rate of 174.69, and the consistent Prabhsimran Singh provides them with a significant advantage. 

Although DC possess experienced campaigners like KL Rahul and the all-round capabilities of captain Axar Patel, PBKS's superior form in IPL 2025 and their recent success at the Sawai Mansingh Stadium should give them the edge. 

The venue's recent trend of high-scoring games and PBKS' ability to adapt to different conditions make them the favourites in what promises to be an entertaining contest.
