Royal Challengers Bangalore is one of the teams which despite having big names in their squad have not been able to win a single IPL trophy. They have reached the finals three times but have failed to cross the last hurdle on all three occasions. Similarly, Punjab Kings (Previously named as Kings XI Punjab) too are yet to win an IPL title. They were runners-up in the IPL 2014 season where they lost to KKR in the finals. However, they did not make it to a single playoff since 2014. RCB beat PBKS in the only meeting of the league phase in IPL 2023 in Mohali.
Both teams will meet on 25th March for IPL 2024 at M. Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bangalore.
