Krunal's match-winning spell, Arshdeep's triple-strike and other key moments from RCB's victory over PBKS in IPL final
Krunal Pandya was adjudged the 'Player of the Final' for his haul of 2/17 from four overs, which played a key role in helping Royal Challengers Bengaluru restrict Punjab Kings to 184/7 after setting them 191 to win at Ahmedabad's Narendra Modi Stadium. read more Krunal Pandya's miserly spell, Arshdeep Singh's triple-strike in the 20th over and Shreyas Iyer's early dismissal were among the standout moments from the final of the 2025 Indian Premier League between Royal Challengers Bengaluru and Punjab Kings in Ahmedabad. AP/Reuters Royal Challengers Bengaluru finished the 2025 Indian Premier League with a 9-0 win/loss record away from home, their latest victory coming against Punjab Kings in the final in Ahmedabad on Tuesday that finally lifted a curse. One that had prevented them from lifting the trophy for 17 long years. RCB thus became the latest entrant in the IPL champions club and it took them 18 seasons to finally become a member when franchises such as Rajasthan Royals and Gujarat Titans lifted the trophy on debut. STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD And no one was more emotional at the Narendra Modi Stadium than Virat Kohli – the batting icon and former India and RCB captain who has called the Chinnaswamy his IPL home throughout his career, and was finally rewarded for his loyalty on Tuesday. After pulling off a heist for the ages last year to sneak into the playoffs at the last minute only to bow out with a defeat in the Eliminator, the Royal Challengers were the standout team this season. In Rajat Patidar's maiden season as captain, RCB narrowly missed out on the top spot at the end of the league phase thanks to PBKS' superior Net Run Rate but stamped their authority on the Shreyas Iyer-led side with a dominant 8-wicket victory in Qualifier 1 in Mullanpur. And while they had stumbled in the final hurdle not once but thrice in the past, each time under a different captain including Kohli, RCB finally lived up to their favourites' tag on Tuesday with a six-run victory over PBKS, with their bowlers playing a key role in delivering the franchise and its legion of passionate supporters a first trophy. Here are some of the key moments from Tuesday's final: Kohli misses out on a fifty thanks to Omarzai Kohli was a long way off from Gujarat Titans opener Sai Sudharsan's tally of 759 runs, but would have still been hopeful of crossing the 700-run barrier for only the third time in the IPL ahead of the final, needing another 86 runs for the same. Unfortunately for the 36-year-old, he would fall seven short of what would have been his ninth fifty of the season after getting a top-edge off a short delivery, with Azmatullah Omarzai completing a fine catch off his own bowling while running to his right. STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD Arshdeep's brilliant final over denies RCB the 200-mark Handy contributions from captain Rajat Patidar (26 off 16), Liam Livingstone (25 off 15), Jitesh Sharma (24 off 10) as well as Romario Shepherd (17 off 9) had RCB staring at the prospect of setting a 200-plus target, with the score reading 187/6 at the end of the 19th. Arshdeep Singh, however, had other plans and highlighted just why he is among the most premier of death bowlers in the current generation, conceding just three singles while collecting three wickets – including that of a set Shepherd. Shreyas perishes for just 1 Though they lost the wicket of opener Priyansh Arya at the end of the fifth over, Punjab Kings looked fairly comfortable at 72/1 in the ninth over; it was obvious at that stage that they needed to accelerate with the asking rate starting to climb, but they had enough wickets in hand and match-winners in their batting lineup to collect the runs. Trouble, however, began after Prabhsimran and skipper Iyer were dismissed in successive overs after the 'TimeOut', and it was the latter getting caught-behind off Shepherd's bowling over a simple poke that came as a body blow to Punjab's hopes of chasing down the 191-run target that was starting to look more difficult with each passing over. Iyer, after all, had smashed an unbeaten 87 in Qualifier 2 against Mumbai Indians just two days ago, the knock playing a key role in guiding the Punjab Kings into an IPL final for only the second time. And the kind of form that he has been in recent months, in international cricket as well as in the IPL and especially in crunch games, the RCB camp would have been eager to see his back as early in the chase as possible. STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD Krunal chokes Punjab's scoring rate in the middle overs PBKS, however, still had enough batters for a rescue act after Iyer's dismissal, and it was important for the Royal Challengers to not waste the momentum gained after getting rid of the key threat in the opposition batting lineup. That's where left-arm finger spinner Krunal Pandya, who has been a handy option for skipper Patidar throughout the 18th season, stepped in with a miserly spell in which the former Mumbai Indians and Lucknow Super Giants all-rounder conceded just 17 runs in four overs. Pandya had broken the second-wicket stand between Prabhsimran and Iyer by removing the former, and would later account for a well-set Josh Inglis – who was caught at the edge of the long on boundary while trying to smash him for a maximum, departing for 39 off 23 as a result. 'Considering the last game against MI, I personally felt that 200 was a par score. They bowled brilliantly, especially Krunal, he carries a lot of experience, he has done it over a period of time. I believe that was the turning point,' Punjab Kings skipper Shreyas Iyer said in the post-match presentation ceremony in which Pandya was adjudged the 'Player of the Final'. STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD Shashank smashes Hazlewood for a flurry of boundaries in vain Shashank Singh – who had been retained along with Prabhsimran ahead of the mega auction – waged a lone battle towards the end of Punjab's chase, with wickets tumbling continuously at the other end and the required rate spiralling out of control. The Chhattisgarh all-rounder had brought the equation down to an improbable 29 from the last over after collecting a six and a four in the 19th off Bhuvneshwar Kumar's bowling. And though he did smash Josh Hazlewood for three sixes and a four in the final over to finish unbeaten on 61 off 30 balls, the big hits unfortunately came at a time when victory was already out of reach for Iyer and company. Hazlewood, after all, put all of his effort in the first two deliveries of the final over, collecting back-to-back dots, and was left with the task of just bowling four legal deliveries thereafter. And the Aussie, who has never lost a final till date, did just that to seal a historic triumph for Royal Challengers Bengaluru.

Ahmedabad (Gujarat) [India], June 4 (ANI): Gujarat Titans (GT) batter Sai Sudharsan and pacer Prasidh Krishna emerged as the top performers of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025 season as the winners of the Orange Cap for most runs and the Purple Cap for most wickets, respectively. While Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) finally ended their 18-year-long title drought with a thrilling six-run win over Punjab Kings (PBKS) in the final, Sudharsan and Krishna stood out as the season's individual stars. Sudharsan ended as the top run-getter, with 759 runs in 15 matches at an average of 54.21, with a strike rate of 156.17, a century and six fifties. His best score was 108*. His side's journey came to an end with a loss to the Mumbai Indians (MI) in the eliminator. He is followed by MI's Suryakumar Yadav (717 runs in 16 matches with five fifties at an average of 65.18), Virat Kohli of RCB (657 runs in 15 matches at an average of 54.75 with eight fifties), GT skipper Shubman Gill (650 runs in 15 matches at an average of 50.00 with six fifties) and Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) opener Mitchell Marsh (627 runs in 13 matches at an average of 48.23, with a century and six fifties). Krishna took home the Purple Cap, with 25 scalps in 15 matches at an average of 19.52, best figures of 4/41. He is followed by Chennai Super Kings (CSK) Noor Ahmad (24 wickets in 14 matches at an average of 17.00, best figures of 4/18), RCB's Josh Hazlewood (22 wickets in 12 matches at an average of 17.54, with best figures of 4/33), MI's pacer Trent Boult (22 wickets in 16 matches at an average of 23.50, with best figures of 4/26) and PBKS' pace spearhead Arshdeep Singh (21 wickets in 17 matches at an average of 24.66, with best score of 3/16). Coming to the match, PBKS won the toss and elected to bowl first. Arshdeep Singh (3/40) and Kyle Jamieson (3/48) applied timely breaks with the ball, while Yuzi Chahal (1/37) also prevented batters from attacking. While Virat (43 in 35 balls, with three fours) tried to keep the innings together, skipper Rajat Patidar (26 in 16 balls, with a four and two sixes), Jitesh Sharma (24 in 10 balls, with two fours and two sixes) and Liam Livingstone (25 in 15 balls, with two fours) upped the attack enough to help RCB post 190/9 in 20 overs. In the run-chase, PBKS started well with Priyansh Arya (24 in 19 balls, with four boundaries) and Prabhsimran (26 in 22 balls, with two sixes) stitching a 43-run stand. Josh Inglis (39 in 23 balls, with a four and four sixes) and Shashank Singh (61* in 30 balls, three wins and six sixes) tried their level best to keep up with the rising run rate, but Krunal Panddya (2/17), Yash Dayal (1/18) and Bhuvneshwar Kumar (2/38) put a fine show with the ball to restrict PBKS to 184/7, despite a sensational 22 runs smashed by Shashank in the final over while needing 29. The title wait continues for PBKS, who reached their second final and their first in 11 years. (ANI)

IPL 2025: Suryakumar Yadav crowned MVP; Sai Sudharsan adjudged Emerging Player of the Season
Ahmedabad (Gujarat) [India], May 4 (ANI): Mumbai Indians' (MI) dynamic batter Suryakumar Yadav was crowned the Most Valuable Player of the Season, while Gujarat Titans' (GT) consistent top-order star Sai Sudharsan was adjudged the Emerging Player of the Season following the conclusion of the 18th edition of the Indian Premier League (IPL) on Tuesday. Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) ended its 18-year-long IPL trophy drought by trouncing Punjab Kings (PBKS) in a pulsating final at the Narendra Modi Stadium, the world's largest cricket venue, with a six-run triumph. Punjab misfired in its attempt to gun down Bengaluru's 191-run target and, in the end, stood one hit away from turning its sorrow into euphoria. Krunal Pandya bamboozled Punjab batters with his spin, while Josh Hazlewood added the finishing touches with his searing pace to cap off an impressive outing with the ball. After the final, India's T20I captain, Suryakumar, was named the Most Valuable Player of the Season after he enjoyed a stellar season with the bat. He ended the tournament with 717 runs in 16 fixtures with five fifties at an average of 65.18. In his splendid season, the 34-year-old star became the first non-opener to have a 700-run Indian Premier League (IPL) season. Meanwhile, Sudharsan brushed off competition from Priyansh Arya, Noor Ahmad, and other youngsters and walked away with the prized accolade. The 23-year-old southpaw, who enjoyed a rich vein of form, blazed his way to the Orange Cap. In his stellar season, Sudharsan pulled the curtains down on his season as the top run-getter of the 18th season of the cash-rich league. He carved out 759 runs in 15 matches at an average of 54.21, with a strike rate of 156.17, a century and six fifties. His best score was 108*. His side's journey came to an end with a loss to the Mumbai Indians (MI) in the eliminator. His compatriot Prasidh Krishna spearheaded the pace attack and clinched the Purple Cap with 25 scalps in 15 matches at an average of 19.52, best figures of 4/41. (ANI)
