🏏IPL 2025 - Qualifier 1: PBKS vs RCB at Mullanpur @ 7:30pm🏏 - Page 7

A minute yo go for the toss and Shashank has this update for the RCB fans: Just as I said no sign of Hazlewood, he comes on like a gentle trundler and bowlers a 100kph warm-up delivery. Tim David has abeen a mere observer during the pre-match drills. Tushara & Muzarabani have been doing a lot of bowling.

Toss: Righto, Rajat Patidar is carrying the team sheet, so he is back captaining.

Shreyas Iyer has the coin, Patidar calls heads, it is a head. RCB will bowl first in Qualifier 1.

Bad move???

I hope they can chase

Rajat Patidar: We will bowl first. Wicket looks very hard, decent covering of grass and will try to maximise the first few overs

Rajat Patidar: We will bowl first. Wicket looks very hard, decent covering of grass and will try to maximise the first few overs. Everyone gave more than 100 percent in the last game, Jitesh Salt and Kohli they were tremendous. One change for us. Hazlewood comes in place of Thushara.

Azmat in for Jansen

Shreyas Iyer: Would have bowled first as well. If you look at the record here, teams batting first have done well, so I am optimistic. They have been tremendous and you need such kind of vibration when you enter the ground and it gives us a lot of energy as well. The way they have been showing the fearless approach and the attitude has been brilliant. Marco goes out and Azmatullah comes in for him.

Royal Challengers Bengaluru (Playing XI): Virat Kohli, Philip Salt, Rajat Patidar(c), Liam Livingstone, Jitesh Sharma(w), Romario Shepherd, Krunal Pandya, Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Yash Dayal, Josh Hazlewood, Suyash Sharma
