Vidarbha face a major setback ahead of the 2025–26 domestic season as star performers Karun Nair and Jitesh Sharma are set to leave the team.

Jitesh Sharma once again came to rescue his team, this time with NECO Master Blaster. They need 5 runs in the very last ball of the Semifinal 1 of the Vidharbha Pro T20 league against Bharat Rangers, and Blasters did it with the help of Sharma, who, earlier this month, won the IPL 2025 with Royal Challengers Bengaluru and is now only a few inches away from lifting another trophy.

RCB chants resonated through the Vidarbha Cricket Association Stadium during Jitesh Sharma’s batting in Match 13 of the VPL 2025 PAS vs. NMB.

The article highlights the five best performers who played a key role during the 2025 IPL season for RCB, helping the team win its first IPL trophy.

Jitesh Sharma's cameo played a crucial role for Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) in the closing moment of the first innings. During the stormy innings, Sharma has played one of the most unorthodox shots in the final of the Indian Premier League.

Jitesh Sharma’s stunning one-handed catch off Josh Hazlewood’s delivery dismissed Azmatullah Omarzai in the IPL 2025 Qualifier 1.

That could've been a match-turning moment for Lucknow Super Giants (LSG), but it ended in a no-ball and extra delivery. Digvesh Rathi pulled out his trademark 'notebook celebration,' but it was the field umpire who asked Royal Challengers Bengaluru's stand-in skipper Jitesh Sharma to wait.

A Mankad controversy in the IPL 2025 LSG vs RCB match saw Digvesh Rathi attempt to run out Jitesh Sharma, who later scored 85* off 33 to lead RCB to a six-wicket victory.

RCB beat LSG by six wickets in a thrilling match to grab second place on the points table. Jitesh Sharma’s blazing 85 runs helped them chase down a big target and enter the playoffs with confidence.

Royal Challengers Bengaluru chased down 228 in style to defeat Lucknow Super Giants by 6 wickets in a high-scoring thriller.
