Today the world will get a new champion in IPL 2025. On one side is Royal Challengers Bangalore and on the other side is Punjab Kings team. While RCB defeated PBKS in the first qualifier, punjab made a strong comeback in the second qualifier and won and made it to the final of the title match.
Now before today's match, the question is which of the two teams is stronger. Who has the upper hand. So let's see.
Performance of both the teams
RCB and PBKS both teams had reached the playoffs by winning 9-9 matches. Both have clashed with each other 36 times in the history of IPL. Interestingly, both the teams have won equal i.e. 18-18 matches.
Still, if seen, RCB has had the upper hand in the recent figures. This season, RCB played three matches against PBKS, in which RCB won two, including a win in the playoffs.
The title match has also been held six months ago
Even before IPL 2025, a title match has been held between RCB captain Rajat Patidar and PBKS captain Shreyas Iyer. This is the second title clash between the two within six months. In fact, in the final match of the syed mushtaq ali Trophy in december last year, Patidar was leading madhya pradesh while Shreyas was leading Mumbai, although then Shreyas's team won the title match.
