Rajasthan Royals vs Punjab Kings: DRS unavailable briefly after Prabhsimran’s dismissal; glitch hits start of 5th over in Jaipur clash

During match 59 of IPL 2025 between Rajasthan Royals and Punjab Kings at the Sawai Mansingh Stadium in Jaipur, a brief technical glitch disrupted the Decision Review System (DRS). As confirmed by commentators, DRS was unavailable for around four deliveries at the start of the 5th over of the Punjab Kings’ innings.

However, DRS was operational just moments before the glitch when Prabhsimran Singh was dismissed in the 4th over. He was caught down the leg side by Sanju Samson off Tushar Deshpande after scoring a quickfire 21 from 10 balls, including 3 fours and a six. The dismissal was reviewed and upheld, helping Rajasthan Royals remove a key threat during the powerplay.
