IPL 2025 Points Table, Orange Cap & Purple Cap List After RCB's 6-Wicket Win Over LSG
Last Updated:
IPL 2025 Points Table, Orange Cap and Purple Cap after LSG vs RCB match: RCB now finish at second on the points table and will take on PBKS in Qualifier 1.
Royal Challengers Bengaluru have gone on to secure a historic win over the Lucknow Super Giants that helped them secure a spot in the first qualifier after their win by six wickets at the Ekana Stadium in Lucknow on Tuesday.
Despite Rishabh Pant scoring a swashbuckling century in the first innings, alongside supporting performances by Mitchell Marsh and Nicholas Pooran, RCB turned up with the bat as the likes of Virat Kohli and Mayank Agarwal started things off while Jitesh Sharma played a knock for the ages to take them to a confidence-boosting win.
The Royal Challengers will now face Punjab Kings in the Qualifier 1 at Mullanpur on Thursday.
The RCB finished second on the table with 19 points, same as Punjab but finished behind them on net run rate — +0.30 against PBKS' +0.37.
The RCB started in a hurry chasing an imposing 228, as Virat Kohli (54, 30b, 10×4) and Phil Salt (30, 19b) added 61 runs in a mere 5.4 overs before Jitesh (85) and Mayank Agarwal (41) taking them home, making 107 runs for the impressive unbroken fifth wicket stand.

Orange Cap
In the race for the orange cap, Virat Kohli now breaks into the 600-run club for the season after his half-century, coming in at the top of the order. He now sits fifth in the run-scoring charts while Lucknow Super Giants' Mitchell Marsh gets one above the Indian batting icon after his fifty to take him up to fourth with 627 runs to his name as well.

Purple Cap
There isn't much change for the wicket-taking lists. LSG's Will O'Rourke was the only bowler who managed to take two wickets, whilst the remaining bowlers picked up a wicket each. RCB's Josh Hazlewood maintains his spot at the fourth position with 18 wickets in his tally for the season. Despite seeing him warm up for the game, he was not included in the side, but it remains to be seen if the Australian pacer will shift for national duties during the playoff stages.

Suruchi aims for golden repeat in Munich
New Delhi: Not many professional shooters describe their process as succinctly as Suruchi Phogat. The latest 10m air pistol sensation to emerge from domestic ranges couldn't care less about techniques such as visualisation or meditation or even the flow state that shooters fret over. Neither does she bother about shooting against Olympic medallists or much-accomplished competitors. 'It's simple. I just pick up the gun and shoot. It's not a very complicated sport,' she said when asked to explain her process. One may be tempted to attribute her assessment to inexperience at the elite level, but the results belie any trace of fluke or complacency. Four medals from her first two senior World Cups in Buenos Aires and Lima this April, including three gold, underscore her growing prowess and the 19-year-old will be the one to watch out for when she takes aim at the Munich World Cup from June 8. 'Shooting always felt natural to me. Somehow, I have never had to try extra hard to nail good scores. I hit 580-585 in training which is usually enough to put me in the finals,' she said. 'In the finals though, I sometimes tend to shoot a little below par which is one area I am working on and would like to get better in this World Cup. The Indian shooting contingent had a two-week training camp at the Dr Karni Singh Shooting Range in New Delhi where the shooters honed their skills ahead of year's third senior rifle/pistol World Cup. The 23-member squad is headlined by Olympic medallists Swapnil Kusale and Manu Bhaker. Besides Bhaker, Suruchi will be accompanied by 19-year-old Asian Games gold medallist Palak Gulia in the 10m event. After the golden harvest in South America, Suruchi will be expected to give a good account of herself in Germany where the competition is going to be sterner with reigning Olympic champion, South Korea's Oh Yejin, in contention. 'The South American leg didn't offer a very tough test, but in Munich, almost all top shooters will participate. It will be an exciting challenge,' said Suruchi. 'And as far as expectations go, I feel 0.01% pressure on match days. My entire focus is on my shooting.' 'My biggest strength is that I don't think too much. Even on match days, my mornings are relaxed and easy. I just try to execute whatever I do in training. It doesn't matter who is shooting next to me. The target is same for everyone,' she added, emphasising that her mindset has barely changed since the time she swept the individual events (junior, youth, senior) at National Championships late last year and followed it up with success at this year's National Games. The twin success at World Cups has brought a lot of attention to Suruchi's unassuming family in Haryana's Sasroli village. Jhajjar district, known for producing quality wrestlers, has lapped up its latest shooting star and Suruchi is still a little wonderstruck with all the adulation. 'We are simple people who live in a humble house in the fields. When I returned from South America, there were a lot of high-profile people who turned up every day to meet me. I felt a little embarrassed because we don't have any luxuries to offer our guests. It's a very humbling experience,' she said.

India yet to take a call on which three Tests Bumrah will play
The Indian team management is yet to decide which three Tests Jasprit Bumrah will feature in the upcoming five-match series in England, but head coach Gautam Gambhir and newly-appointed captain Shubman Gill made it clear that there's enough depth in its pace attack. 'We haven't taken that call, which three games is he going to play,' Gambhir said on Thursday. 'We are going to have a discussion with him and (it will) depend on the series as well. A lot will depend on the results of the series, where the series is heading. That is something which I am sure he is very well aware of as well and that is important.' Fitness worry While announcing the squad last month, the chairman of the selection committee, Ajit Agarkar, said that Bumrah had been advised by medical staff not to risk playing back-to-back Tests as part of his workload management in the wake of him breaking down during the fifth Test against Australia in Sydney in January. But Gambhir believes that this will also be an opportunity for the rest of the pace attack, comprising Mohammed Siraj, Prasidh Krishna, Akash Deep, Arshdeep Singh and Shardul Thakur to stand up and deliver. 'I have said it before during the Champions Trophy (which Bumrah missed) as well, it will give someone the opportunity to put his hand up and we have got enough talent there. I know that he is quality but we have got enough quality apart from him as well in the squad.' WTC cycle Under the leadership of Gill, the five Tests against England will be India's first in the 2025-27 World Test Championship cycle, and the young captain believes that there's enough firepower in the bowling department. 'We have picked enough bowlers and we have a good enough pace battery and a lot of fast bowlers are in a great space to be able to win us Test matches from any situation or any position,' Gill said.
