Royal Challengers Bengaluru delivered a remarkable display of bowling to bundle out Punjab Kings for 101 in 14.1 overs in the first innings of Qualifier 1 of the ongoing IPL 2025 at the Maharaja Yadavindra Singh International Cricket Stadium in New Chandigarh.

Four of the first six overs in the powerplay resulted in wickets as PBKS’ top-order crumbled under RCB’s disciplined bowling. Barring Prabhsimran Singh (18 off 10), no one amongst the hosts’ batters up top registered double-digit scores.

The damage wasn’t limited to just the first six overs. Yash Dayal had Nehal Wadhera’s (8 off 10) leg stump flattened to leave them five down by the third delivery of the seventh over, as the scorecard read a mere 50 runs on the board. From there, leg-spinner Suyash Sharma made an instant impact after being brought on in the ninth over of the innings.

The Shreyas Iyer-led side was in all sorts of disarray after Shashank Singh (3 off 5) and Musheer Khan (0 off 3) headed back to the pavilion courtesy of leg-spinner’s bowling. PBKS were 71/7 at the halfway stage. Marcus Stoinis (26 off 17) departed on the third delivery of the 11th over, which looked like the only positive performance for the Kings throughout the innings

Dayal (2/26 in four overs) completed his entire quota by the 12th over. Romario Shepherd, like Suyash and Dayal, struck in his very first over to send Harpreet Brar (four off 11) back. Azmatullah Omarzai (18 off 12) was the last person to depart. A returning Josh Hazlewood and the leggie ended with respective three-wicket hauls.

 “We executed the plans that the coaches gave us. Today I felt good [with the ball]. Felt like batters did not pick the googly. The chat was this was a semi-final, but we will take it like a normal game. The previous game we played here helped us,” Suyash said after the first innings on air.
