IPL 2025 Final: Punjab Kings vs Royal Challengers Bangalore Showdown

Exciting IPL 2025 Final Set for Tuesday

The highly anticipated IPL 2025 final is scheduled for Tuesday at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad, featuring a thrilling matchup between Punjab Kings (PBKS) and Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB).

Filmmaker S.S. Rajamouli recently shared a heartfelt post that resonated with fans, showcasing a moment between Punjab Kings' captain Shreyas Iyer and RCB's star player Virat Kohli shaking hands.

In his post, Rajamouli praised both athletes for their remarkable journeys. He highlighted Iyer's leadership, noting his past experiences with Delhi Capitals and Kolkata Knight Riders, where he faced ups and downs but ultimately led Punjab to the finals after an 11-year gap. He also commended Kohli for his consistent performance over the years.

Rajamouli expressed, 'This man leads Delhi to a final... and is dropped... Leads Kolkata to a trophy... dropped... Leads a young Punjab to the finals after 11 years. He deserves this year's trophy too... On the other hand, it is Kohli... who is performing year after year... compiling thousands of runs. The final frontier for him... He deserves it too. Whatever the result... it's going to be a heartbreak...'

Punjab Kings secured their spot in the final by defeating Mumbai Indians in Qualifier 2, with Iyer scoring an impressive unbeaten 87 runs off 41 balls. This achievement makes him the first player to lead three different IPL teams to the finals.

RCB earned their final berth by overcoming Punjab in Qualifier 1. Kohli has been in exceptional form this season, consistently scoring runs and leading his team effectively.

This final is particularly significant as neither RCB nor PBKS has claimed an IPL title before. This marks RCB's fourth final appearance and PBKS's second, their first in over a decade.

Fans are eagerly anticipating the showdown in Ahmedabad on Tuesday, eager to see which team will finally secure their first IPL championship.
