The IPL final is slated for the Narendra Modi Stadium on Tuesday, the 3rd of June 2025, wherein RCB-i.e., Royal Challengers Bengaluru-will meet with PBKS-i.e., Punjab Kings.
This is a rematch of the first qualifier, which RCB won with ease, chasing down a meager total of 102 runs in just 10 overs. To make it to the final, PBKS advanced from the eliminator after defeating Mumbai Indians. PBKS bowled first after MI was tog get 203 runs, taking 2 wickets-with the name of Azmatullah Omarzai coming across. The target was chased successfully by PBKS, with Shreyas Iyer leading the charge to an unbeaten 87 off 41 balls, winning by five wickets in 19 overs.
The biggest eyes are, of course, on Virat Kohli, who is about to achieve a gigantic record. He has had a major role to play for RCB; he has amassed 614 runs in 14 matches, including eight half-centuries, and if he adds a further 86 runs, he will be the first player ever to…in three different IPL seasons; not even Tendulkar could reach this feat. Kohli had scored 973 runs in 2016 and 741 runs in 2024, tying with Chris Gayle who did it in 2012 and 2013.
