New Chandigarh, Punjab:

As the excitement builds for Qualifier 1 of IPL 2025, Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) and Punjab Kings (PBKS) are preparing for what could be a season defining clash. Both teams are likely to benefit from the return of two of their key bowlers Josh Hazlewood and Yuzvendra Chahal ahead of this high-stakes encounter.

Josh Hazlewood Boosts RCB’s Pace Battery

Punjab Kings vs Royal Challengers Bengaluru IPL 2025 Qualifier 1, Predicted XIs: Will Josh Hazlewood, Yuzvendra Chahal return? - India Today

Josh Hazlewood, the experienced Australian fast bowler, is expected to make a timely comeback to the RCB squad. Having missed several games due to injury and international commitments, Hazlewood’s availability could be a game-changer for RCB. Known for his accuracy and ability to pick up wickets in the powerplay, his return gives RCB a potent edge, especially on pace-friendly pitches.

RCB, who have relied heavily on Mohammed Siraj and the young Reece Topley, now have the chance to field one of the most balanced bowling attacks in the playoffs.

Chahal Set to Rejoin PBKS After Injury Scare

Punjab Kings, too, have reason to smile. Star leg-spinner Yuzvendra Chahal, who was sidelined due to a minor finger injury, is expected to be fit and available for Qualifier 1. Chahal has been one of PBKS’s most consistent performers this season, often breaking partnerships in the middle overs and keeping run rates in check.

His presence on turning tracks could prove vital, especially against a strong RCB batting unit that has struggled at times against quality spin.

Why Their Return Matters

Both Hazlewood and Chahal bring not only skill but also vast playoff experience to the table. In a pressure-cooker match like Qualifier 1 where a win secures a direct ticket to the IPL final the presence of seasoned campaigners can make a world of difference.

Hazlewood’s ability to strike early and bowl with discipline in the death overs complements RCB’s attack perfectly, while Chahal’s control and guile can help PBKS put the brakes on even the most aggressive middle orders.

With both franchises on the cusp of history RCB looking to end their title drought, and PBKS aiming for their first-ever IPL crown the return of Josh Hazlewood and Yuzvendra Chahal could significantly tilt the balance in their favor. Their fitness and form could well decide who takes the first big step toward IPL 2025 glory.

All eyes now turn to the playing XIs  and the weather as we gear up for one of the most anticipated matches of the season.
