Royal Challengers Bangalore has ended the drought of 18 years. RCB finally won the title of IPL 2025 in the 18th season. RCB defeated Punjab Kings by 6 runs in the final. With this victory, the dream of Virat Kohli and all those fans of RCB was fulfilled who were dreaming of winning the title since 2008. At the same time, Punjab Kings, who reached the final after 2014 under the captaincy of Shreyas Iyer, was heartbroken. Punjab team lost in the final.

Philp Salt could not give a great start to RCB, who came to bat first after losing the toss in Ahmedabad ground. Salt was trapped by Jamieson and he went out after scoring 16 runs in nine balls. While Virat Kohli remained firm at one end, on the other side Mayank Agarwal could only score 24 runs in 18 balls with two fours and a six and after him captain Rajat Patidar could only score 26 runs in 16 balls with one four and two sixes. Due to which RCB lost three wickets for 96 runs.

After three for 96, Kohli was trapped by Omarzai in the 15th over of the innings and he went after scoring 43 runs in 35 balls with three fours. Fans also trolled Kohli for his slow play. While in the end Jitesh Sharma scored 24 runs in 10 balls with two fours and two sixes for RCB, Arshdeep Singh kept RCB away from 200. In the last over, Arshdeep showed his flair and took three wickets. Due to which RCB's team could only reach 190 runs for nine wickets in 20 overs and remained away from 200. Arshdeep and Kyle Jamieson took the maximum three wickets for Punjab.

Punjab's middle order flopped

Punjab Kings got off to a good start. Priyansh Arya and Prabhsimran Singh started in the opening. Both of them together added 43 runs for the first wicket but then Priyansh Arya was out for 24 runs. Arya was caught by Phil Salt. Now Josh Inglis came to the crease and he fully supported Prabhsimran Singh. Both of them together took the score to 72 runs. Prabhsimran was playing big shots but then Krunal Pandya dismissed him and gave a big success to RCB.

Now Punjab Kings captain Shreyas Iyer is at the crease but Iyer flopped. Iyer was run out by Romario Shepherd for just one run. Iyer's wicket was the biggest success for RCB. Inglis was playing from the other end but he was out on a score of 98. Inglis' wicket was taken by Krunal Pandya. Inglis scored 39 runs in 23 balls. Nehal Vadhera was expected to perform brilliantly but he was out on 15 runs. Finally RCB won the finals after 17 years.
