Match 66 of IPL 2025 will see Punjab Kings (PBKS) take on Delhi Capitals (DC) on May 24, 2025, at Sawai Mansingh Stadium in Jaipur, starting at the usual 7:30 PM IST. PBKS has already clinched their first playoff spot since 2014 and will be looking to secure a top-two finish to give themselves an easier path into the IPL 2025 final. On the other hand, after being eliminated from playoff contention following a mid-season slump, DC are playing for pride and may be tinkering with their lineup and might welcome back Axar Patel, who missed their previous match through illness. This is a historic rivalry, competitive at the worst of times, with PBKS’s explosive batting taking on the ambidextrous bowling of DC.
