NEW DELHI: Rajasthan Royals (RR), now back under the leadership of Sanju Samson, will take on an in-form Punjab Kings (PBKS) in a high-stakes Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025 clash on Saturday.
A big focus of the match will be on a struggling Yashasvi Jaiswal, who will be eager to shift attention back to his batting. Jaiswal has had a turbulent few weeks — switching domestic allegiances from Mumbai to Goa amid reported internal rifts and posting underwhelming scores of 1, 29 and 4 in this IPL season. The 22-year-old southpaw, hungry for leadership roles, now finds himself needing runs more than ever, especially after being overlooked for the Champions Trophy squad.
