Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) are all set to play their third home match of IPL 2025 at the M. Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru. They will take on Punjab Kings (PBKS) on April 18 in what promises to be a thrilling encounter.

RCB and PBKS Are In Great Touch

RCB, now led by Rajat Patidar, are currently placed third in the points table. PBKS, captained by Shreyas Iyer, are not far behind at fourth. So far, both sides have won four out of their six matches, making this clash an exciting one as they’re neck-and-neck in the standings.

In their last matches, both teams showed impressive performances. PBKS created history by defending the lowest total ever in IPL - just 111 runs - in a game played at Mullanpur. RCB also looked dominant, defeating Rajasthan Royals by 9 wickets in their recent match in Jaipur.

However, there’s some concern about the weather possibly affecting the match. According to sources and videos shared by users on the social media platform X (formerly Twitter), the ground in Bengaluru is currently covered, which usually happens when there is a chance of rain. 

Clouds have been seen hovering near the stadium, raising doubts about whether the game will go ahead without interruptions.
