[Watch] IPL 2025: Krunal Pandya dismisses PBKS openers in consecutive overs

Krunal Pandya removed each of Punjab Kings’ openers throughout Royal Challengers Bengaluru’s ongoing conflict on the Mullanpur Cricket Stadium on Sunday, April 20. Priyansh Arya and Prabhsimran Singh have been the batters to depart within the fifth and seventh overs of the primary innings, respectively.

The second supply of Krunal’s spell produced Priyansh’s wicket. Coming from round, Krunal’s inventory supply slanted throughout the left-handed batter who was looking out of slogging throughout the road. The ball ended up slicing off the skin half of the bat to Tim David at mid-off.

The primary ball of Krunal’s second over was once more hit to David, this time at long-on. It was fired in full and straight by Krunal, and Prabhsimran, batting on 33, appeared to launch the ball down the bottom. Nonetheless, he couuldn’t generate the required elevation because the tall Australian ended up reverse-cupping the ball.

Earlier within the afternoon, RCB gained the toss and elected to discipline first. Whereas Shreyas Iyer introduced that the hosts can be going forward with an unchanged XI, RCB introduced in Romario Shepherd rather than the off-colour English all-rounder, Liam Livingstone.

The 2 sides clashed a few days earlier on the M Chinnaswamy Stadium when PBKS ended up clinching the rain-shortened recreation by 5 wickets and 11 deliveries to spare. David was awarded the Participant of the Match in a dropping trigger for his unbeaten 50 off 26 along with two catches.
