After being put in to bat first, Punjab Kings were eventually bundled out for just 101-the joint second-lowest total in IPL playoff history. Only Marcus Stoinis crossed the 20-run mark, as the team folded in 14.1 overs. Suyash Sharma (3/17) and Josh Hazlewood (3/21) were the pick of the bowlers for PBKS.
In response, Kohli and Phil Salt added 30 for the first wicket. Although Kohli fell for 12, continuing his poor playoff record, Salt's unbeaten 56 off 27 balls sealed an eight-wicket win in just 10 overs.
RCB reached the IPL final for the first time in nine years. Meanwhile, Punjab Kings will face the winner of the Eliminator between Mumbai Indians and Gujarat Titans in Sunday's Qualifier 2.

Shoaib Akhtar served legal notice by Nauman Niaz over 'kit man' remark
Former Pakistan speedster has landed in legal trouble after making allegedly defamatory comments about cricket analyst and broadcaster Nauman Niaz.

Tired of too many ads? go ad free now 'Dr Nauman basically used to carry our bags and luggage for us in the team,' Akhtar claimed in the discussion, further adding, 'That is what he did in the team. I don't know about anything else he did.' Go Beyond The Boundary with our YouTube channel. Niaz, who previously served as Sports Director at Pakistan Television Network (PTV) and was also involved with the Pakistan team in a data analyst capacity during Akhtar's playing days, has taken strong exception to the remarks. Through his legal counsel, Niaz has issued a defamation notice demanding an unconditional public apology within 14 days. The notice states that failure to comply will lead to further legal action, including the pursuit of monetary damages. IPL 2025 Winner Prediction: What Greenstone Lobo's Astrology says The relationship between the two has been turbulent in the past. In 2021, Niaz infamously asked Akhtar to leave a live PTV show following an on-air disagreement, which led to public outrage. Although Niaz later apologised under government pressure, tensions between the two appear far from settled.

'Have to find out how MI get so lucky': Ashwin draws curious 2018 parallel after Hardik and co's Eliminator win over GT
Mumbai Indians stayed alive in the race for the final after defeating Gujarat Titans in the Eliminator in Mullanpur on Saturday. After opting to bat, MI were dominant from ball one, with Jonny Bairstow – the franchise's debutant for the marquee clash – turning up the heat with a lightning-quick 47 off 22 balls. Rohit Sharma, meanwhile, got two reprieves early in his innings as he was dropped twice before scoring a brilliant 81 off 50 balls. Ravichandran Ashwin, India's former spinner who plays for the Chennai Super Kings in the IPL, made an interesting observation about MI's lucky reprieves in the Eliminator match. The spinner drew parallels from his own experience facing MI during a 2018 match to illustrate his point. 'Prasidh Krishna was after the Purple Cap. The way he was bowling today, he would've gone to another level in the Eliminator. He was clocking 150kph. There was one over where Jonny Bairstow smashed him for 26 runs, but in that over, he tried to get his wicket in 2-3 balls. It was an incisive over, but he couldn't get the wicket. And after that, the game went for the worse,' Ashwin began. "He dropped a catch. Then, Kusal Mendis dropped a catch off Siraj's bowling. Then, Rohit was unstoppable. It looked like a hand of god was with Rohit Sharma. He had the luck but he capitalised on the chances. 'I've seen one thing against Mumbai Indians, every time. In 2018, I was leading Punjab against MI. They were 80-odd for five wickets in 13 overs. They weren't anywhere in the game. Suddenly, the floodlights lost current and we had a 20-minute break. And when the game resumed, Kieron Pollard went ballistic and they went to smash around 180-200 runs.' Ashwin added that MI "always get lucky.' 'Of course, you earn your luck. But MI always get lucky. We have to find out how they're getting so lucky,' said Ashwin. MI are the five-time champions of the league and are the joint-highest winners alongside Chennai Super Kings. Mumbai Indians will face Punjab Kings for a place in the final of the IPL. Punjab Kings might be low on morale after an 8-wicket thumping against Royal Challengers Bengaluru, but they finished at the top of the points table in the league stage with 19 points.
