Punjab Kings' Innings: A Promising Start Derailed
PBKS began their innings with a solid opening partnership. Priyansh Arya and Prabhsimran Singh added 42 runs for the first wicket. However, Krunal Pandya's introduction into the attack turned the tide. He dismissed Arya for 22 in the fifth over and then removed Prabhsimran Singh for 33 in the seventh over. Romario Shepherd further dented PBKS's innings by taking a wicket shortly after the powerplay. At the end of 11.5 overs, PBKS are 95/4, with Josh Inglis and Shashank Singh at the crease.

🧠 Match Situation: What’s Next?
As PBKS rebuild their innings at 95/4, the next few overs will be critical. A good finish from the lower middle order — with batters like Liam Livingstone and Sam Curran still to come — can push their total past 160, which could be a competitive score on this pitch.
For RCB, another couple of quick wickets could allow them to restrict PBKS under 150 — a chaseable target for their power-packed batting lineup led by Virat Kohli, Faf du Plessis, and Glenn Maxwell.
