The Ahmedabad surface will assist batters in the powerplay overs. Any score above 220 would be a bit tough for the chasing side. The captain, who won the toss, would love to bat first if there are no overcast conditions.

RCB vs PBKS IPL 2025 Final Winner Prediction

Match Winner: Royal Challengers Bengaluru

RCB, led by Rajat Patidar, is coming into this contest after defeating PBKS by eight wickets in the first qualifier. Earlier in the league stage, these two sides bagged one win against each other.

However, this would be the first game for the RCB franchise this season. On the other hand, PBKS has already played two games at this venue this season. That said, with RCB getting more rest and practice, we can expect them to come out on top and claim their first ever title.
