IPL 2025 final: How many titles have the RCB squad members won with other teams? All you need to know
Royal Challengers Bengaluru play Punjab Kings in the IPL 2025 final in Ahmedabad on June 3 (Tuesday). RCB are playing an IPL final for the first time since 2016. Rajat Patidar, the current RCB captain, made his IPL debut only in 2021. RCB may have won zero IPL titles, but the squad members have won plenty of IPL titles with other teams. Player Titles and finals Virat Kohli 0 (4th IPL final - 2009, 2011, 2016, 2025) Phil Salt 1 (Kolkata Knight Riders - 2024) Rajat Patidar 0 (Maiden IPL final) Mayank Agarwal 0 (3rd IPL final, 2011, 2017, 2025) Jitesh Sharma 0 (Maiden IPL final) Romario Shepherd 0 (Maiden IPL final) Tim David 0 (Maiden IPL final) Liam Livingstone 0 (Maiden IPL final) Krunal Pandya 3 (Mumbai Indians - 2015, 2017, 2019) Suyash Sharma 1 (Kolkata Knight Riders - 2024) Yash Dayal 1 (Gujarat Titans - 2022) Bhuvneshwar Kumar 1 (Sunrisers Hyderabad - 2016) Josh Hazlewood 1 (Chennai Super Kings - 2021)
Bhuvneshwar Kumar won the purple cap in 2016. His tight bowling in the final against RCB was invaluable. He conceded just 25 runs in his four overs at an economy rate of 6.25. In a chase of 209, RCB scored 25 runs off Bhuvneshwar Kumar's four overs and smashed 175 runs in the other 16 overs. Krunal Pandya was the player of the match in the final of IPL 2017. Josh Hazlewood was the best bowler for CSK in the 2021 final. Yash Dayal provided the first breakthrough in the 2022 final in Ahmedabad, the venue for this year's final. His stocks have gone up after bowling a stellar final over to MS Dhoni in two consecutive seasons.
Suyash Sharma played only two matches in 2024 for KKR and failed to take a single wicket. Yet, it doesn't matter. He has the experience of being a part of a title-winning squad.
Virat Kohli was the player of the match in the final of ICC T20 World Cup 2024 against South Africa. Kohli scored 75 off 59 and was adjudged the player of the match in Barbados. He also scored a vital 35 off 49 balls in the 2011 final against Sri Lanka in Mumbai.
Mayank Agarwal captained Punjab Kings in 2022. Liam Livingstone and Jitesh Sharma represented PBKS till IPL 2024.

RCB, KSCA must pay ₹1 crore each to stampede victims' families, says Karnataka Minister
Karnataka's Women and Child Development Minister Laxmi Hebbalkar on Friday called on the Karnataka State Cricket Association (KSCA) and Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) to provide ₹1 crore each as compensation to the families of those who lost their lives in the stampede outside M Chinnaswamy Stadium earlier this week, Deccan Herald reported. According to the report, speaking to reporters, Hebbalkar said she was deeply affected by the deaths, describing the tragedy as a 'heart-wrenching' incident. 'It is extremely unfortunate that 11 people lost their lives during the celebrations. KSCA and RCB must step up and support the victims' families with meaningful compensation,' she said. (Also Read: Chaos in Bengaluru Metro: Viral video shows fans jumping gates amid stampede frenzy. Watch) The stampede occurred on Wednesday evening when a massive crowd gathered outside the stadium to catch a glimpse of the IPL-winning RCB team. Poor crowd control and confusion over entry procedures reportedly contributed to the chaos, leaving over 50 injured in addition to the fatalities. Hebbalkar also took aim at opposition parties, accusing them of politicising the tragedy. 'The opposition is trying to mislead the public. Instead of turning this into a political slugfest, we must focus on understanding the root causes and ensuring such an incident is never repeated,' she said, adding that Congress leaders would respond appropriately to the allegations being made.

Police have arrested and questioned several individuals, including RCB's marketing head and officials from the event management firm DNA Entertainment. An FIR has also been filed against KSCA, DNA, and RCB. (Also Read: How a Bengaluru DCP, with just two cops, fought to control Chinnaswamy stampede)

Despite police denying permission, Congress leaders in government exerted pressure: R Ashoka
Bengaluru: The government itself is the culprit in the stampede incident that occurred around Chinnaswamy Stadium. We will fight until the case is handed over to a judicial inquiry and the guilty are punished. The police have been made a scapegoat in this incident, said Opposition Leader R. Ashoka, expressing his outrage. Speaking at a press conference, he said Chief Minister Siddaramaiah has kept the state's law and order in the dark. This is the result of the "great socialist, fun-loving" Siddaramaiah. If the RCB team had won the IPL, the KPCC team posed for photos. Chief Minister Siddaramaiah is the batsman, and DK Shivakumar is the bowler. While DK Shivakumar is trying to bowl out Siddaramaiah, the CM is striving to score a century for five years. Amid their tussle, the people of the state have been hit wicket. Eleven talented youths lost their lives, he alleged. The trophy was in the hands of Congress leaders on the stage. The players who toiled for years were sidelined. Some Congress leaders are calling this celebration a hasty decision. For their own rallies, Congress made extensive preparations in Bengaluru, even during floods. However, no preparations were made for a sports event involving youths. If even one percent of the effort put into Congress rallies had been made here, young lives could have been saved, he said. Commissioner's Suspension For the first time in Karnataka's history, a police commissioner has been suspended. People on social media are saying they stand with the police. The police carried injured youths to hospitals, but no Congress workers were present. Yet, the police have been suspended. We will continue our political fight until justice is served and against making someone a scapegoat, he said. The police commissioner had denied permission, but the FIR states that the RCB franchise decided to hold the event in the evening. This means it was an unauthorized event. If Section 144 had been imposed, no one would have attended. Since it was unauthorized, the program should have been canceled by imposing that section. The government took action against the police to avoid embarrassment. We all say the government is the culprit, and the guilty are within the government. Who instructed the franchise to hold the event? Who brought the cricketers? he questioned. The police had advised against holding events at two locations. Yet, CM Siddaramaiah said the incident didn't happen at Vidhana Soudha but at Chinnaswamy Stadium. Both places are adjacent. Despite the police denying permission, the Congress government took the law into its own hands and held the event. Everyone was busy with photo shoots, and no one cared about the people, he said. Government is the Culprit Initially, they said the district commissioner would investigate. Then, they said the CID would probe. This will be covered up like the MUDA and Valmiki Corporation scams. Since the government itself is the culprit, no one from the government should investigate. A judge must conduct the inquiry. We need to know who pressured for permission and who instructed to hold the event. The fight will continue until then, he stated.

Why arrest Virat Kohli is going viral amidst tragic stampede at RCB's IPL victory parade
Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) finally clinched their maiden IPL title after eighteen years, a moment that should have been pure joy for Virat Kohli and fans alike. However, the celebrations took a grim turn in Bengaluru when a massive crowd gathered to greet the team outside M. Chinnaswamy Stadium. A stampede broke out, tragically claiming eleven lives and injuring sixty-seven others. Watching and hearing about the stampede in Bangalore made me wonder where we are going ! This is not a national team winning the World Cup ! It's a mere franchise called RCB which works on commercial lines and does not have a single Hyderabad player in it !? It's not even a… Tragedy mars RCB's historic IPL win Despite the chaos outside, festivities continued inside the stadium. Kohli and RCB captain Rajat Patidar addressed enthusiastic fans, while the squad was earlier honoured by Karnataka Chief Minister Siddaramaiah at Vidhana Soudha. The joyous mood was in stark contrast to the distress unfolding beyond the stadium gates. Police action and FIR registrations The Bengaluru Police responded swiftly, taking four officials from RCB and event management firm DNA Entertainment Private Limited into custody. An FIR has been registered against RCB, DNA Entertainment, and the Karnataka State Cricket Association (KSCA), citing serious charges including culpable homicide not amounting to murder and other sections relating to public safety and unlawful assembly under the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita. 1 parade, 0 brains, & now 7 funerals. What kind of idiots plans a mass celebration without barricades, without strategy?This isn't a celebration gone wrong, this is an administration that went brain-dead🤬#chinnaswamystadium #stampede #RCB Why is #ArrestViratKohli trending? The incident sparked outrage on social media, with #ArrestViratKohli trending prominently on the platform X (formerly Twitter). Many users blamed Kohli and other RCB players, suggesting they share responsibility for the tragedy due to inadequate crowd control and safety measures. Others criticised Kohli for reportedly leaving for London soon after the incident instead of staying back to console victims' families.
