PBKS vs RR – Player of the Match

Donovan Ferreira gave RR the perfect finishing punch when the chase was still alive but dangerous. His unbeaten 52 off 26 balls was calm, powerful, and calculated, not just blind hitting.

He trusted the setup from Jaiswal and Sooryavanshi, built a crucial stand with Shubham Dubey, then finished the chase with a six to hand PBKS their first defeat of IPL 2026.

PBKS put up a strong 222, but RR showed why their batting depth matters beyond the openers. Jaiswal and Sooryavanshi gave Rajasthan a fast start, while Ferreira and Shubham Dubey turned the final overs into a controlled chase instead of panic.

For PBKS, the loss exposed their bowling cracks, especially their poor execution of slower balls under pressure.

A SIX to seal the 6️⃣th win of the season! 👊#RR claim two crucial points, ending #PBKS’ unbeaten streak in New Chandigarh 👏
