Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) captain Rajat Patidar has made some shocking revelations about his match fitness ahead of the IPL 2025 final against Punjab Kings (PBKS) on June 3 at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad.
In a display of immense grit and commitment, Rajat Patidar has been playing in the business end of the IPL 2025 with an injury. The Royal Challengers Bengaluru skipper got injured during his team’s home match against Chennai Super Kings (CSK) last month at the M. Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru.
Ahead of the IPL 2025 final between RCB and PBKS, Patidar revealed that his injury is yet to heal completely, and he is playing while carrying a fracture. However, with the maiden title on the line, the RCB skipper has decided to bear the pain and take the field for one last battle this season.

He was born to play cricket: Rajat Patidar's father on RCB captain
Patidar’s father was quoted as saying by The New Indian Express, “It was all his hard work. He didn't need to study, and he didn't need to take care of the house. He was free from the beginning. I didn't give him any load. He was born to play cricket. When I didn't force him, he used to do what he wanted.”
The Madhya Pradesh star’s career has taken flight in recent years, and his father said that leading RCB in the IPL is a very big thing for them. He signed off by saying, “We are very proud; it feels very good. It is a big deal becoming the captain of RCB.”
Now, Rajat has a chance to script history, as if RCB manages to beat PBKS in the final on Tuesday, he will become the first male captain to win the IPL trophy for the franchise. He has scored 286 runs across 14 innings in the ongoing season so far, with the best score of 64 runs at a strike rate of 142.
