Eighteen seasons, endless heartbreaks — and now, one night to rewrite history. The IPL 2025 final offers a fresh script and brand-new champions. Royal Challengers Bengaluru and Punjab Kings, two of the league’s longest-suffering franchises, meet in a grand finale that guarantees a first-time champion. One will break the curse.
RCB are into their fourth final — and perhaps their most balanced one. Rajat Patidar has marshalled the side with quiet assurance, Phil Salt has exploded at the top, and Josh Hazlewood has bossed every big game. Their demolition of Punjab in Qualifier 1 was clinical as well.
Punjab Kings, however, have shaken off that bruising loss with grit. Shreyas Iyer’s unbeaten 87 in Qualifier 2 earned them a spot in their second IPL final — their first in 11 years. PBKS have all the tools to outclass RCB tonight.
