Punjab Kings will face off against Kolkata Knight Riders in match No. 31 of the IPL 2025 at the New PCA Stadium in Mullanpur, New Chandigarh on Tuesday. While PBKS faced a disappointing loss even after posting a massive 245-run score in their last match, Ajinkya Rahane’s KKR are coming into this contest full of confidence with win over Chennai Super Kings at Chepauk.
Shreyas Iyer’s PBKS, though, will have to rethink their playing 11 with New Zealand pacer Lockie Ferguson ruled out of the entire IPL 2025 season. All-rounders Azmatullah Omarzai or Aaron Hardie might come into the side to replace Ferguson.
PBKS vs KKR Live Score, IPL 2025: Nortje to Nehal Wadhera, out Caught by Venkatesh Iyer! Just earlier, skipper Rahane had praised Nortje’s hard work and said he was looking forward to watching him bowl tonight. And here he is delivering. Nehal Wadhera, who had just hit back-to-back boundaries and looked at ease, was undone by Nortje’s extra pace. Despite the short length, the delivery cramped him for room. Wadhera attempted a flick but mistimed it completely, sending a leading edge straight to deep square leg. He departs for 10 off 9 balls (2 fours), and half the side is now back in the pavilion.
PBKS vs KKR Live Score, IPL 2025: Harshit Rana is running riot against Punjab Kings, and once again, it’s Ramandeep Singh with the catch! The ball seems to be following him around like a magnet.
PBKS vs KKR Live Score, IPL 2025: Inglis committed to the sweep shot regardless of the delivery. Unfortunately for him, Varun Chakaravarthy adjusted the length ever so slightly, getting the ball to skid through and beat the bat’s under edge. The result: timber disturbed and Inglis walking back for just 2 runs off 6 balls.
PBKS vs KKR Live Score, IPL 2025: What a catch by Ramandeep — absolute brilliance! There’s a stunned silence across the New Chandigarh crowd. Harshit Rana offered plenty of width outside off, and Shreyas Iyer went for a booming drive over the covers. But he couldn’t keep it down, and Ramandeep took a sharp catch to dismiss him for a duck.

PBKS vs KKR Live Score, IPL 2025:
Ajinkya Rahane: We were looking to bowl first on this wicket. For me, toss is something you cannot control. We have a batting that can chase the target. Just one change. Nortje comes in for Moeen Ali. He has been working hard on his game and I am really looking forward to see him bowl tonight.
Shreyas Iyer: We are going to bat first. Feel the wicket has been really well for the last couple of matches, the dew comes in but the outfield doesn’t skid through. Don’t remember the team changes, I will tell later. We need to take as many catches in the fielding and create some sort of brilliance.
PBKS vs KKR Live Score, IPL 2025: The ground features asymmetric boundaries — 70 metres on one side and just 61 metres on the other, with 75 metres straight down the ground. The pitch looks fantastic for batting: it’s rock hard and the ball comes onto the bat beautifully. Teams batting first have consistently done well here, with both managing to post 200-plus totals and successfully defending them. One concern for the home side, Punjab Kings, is their record at this venue — they’ve won only 2 out of their 7 matches. Additionally, PBKS have struggled to make early breakthroughs, taking very few wickets during the powerplay.
