IPL 2025 Final Royal Challengers Bengaluru vs Punjab Kings Showdown

The IPL 2025 final is set to deliver an unforgettable cricket spectacle as Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) take on Punjab Kings (PBKS) at the iconic Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad on June 3. Both teams are hungry to break their long title drought and bring home their very first IPL trophy. Cricket Army fans across the nation are buzzing with excitement, ready to witness this thrilling showdown.

Royal Challengers Bengaluru’s Road to IPL 2025 Final

RCB has reached the IPL final three times before — in 2009, 2011, and 2016 — but has never lifted the trophy. Their past heartbreaks, including narrow losses to Deccan Chargers, Chennai Super Kings, and Sunrisers Hyderabad, have only fueled the team’s determination. Led by Rajat Patidar in IPL 2025, RCB aims to finally fulfill the famous chant “Ee Sala Cup Namde” (this year is our year) and end the wait.

Punjab Kings Eager for Their First IPL Title

Punjab Kings reached the IPL final once before in 2014 but lost a nail-biter to Kolkata Knight Riders by just three wickets. Now under the captaincy of Shreyas Iyer, who has been a rock all season, PBKS looks stronger than ever. With star players like Arshdeep Singh and Kyle Jamieson, Punjab Kings have shown resilience and grit, finishing top of the league stage and fighting hard to reach the final.
