Shreyas Iyer looked absolutely pumped up after taking a fine catch to dismiss Phil Salt in the ongoing IPL 2025 final between Punjab Kings and Royal Challengers Bengaluru at the Narendra Modi Stadium.
The match began on a good note for Shreyas Iyer as he won the toss and opted to bowl first. With batsmen likely to dominate proceedings, batting second is definitely a big advantage. Arshdeep Singh opened the attack for the Punjab-based outfit in the title-decider.

Phil Salt made his intentions clear by taking on Arshdeep in the very first over. The RCB opener hit the pacer for a 6 and a 4 in the very first over to help RCB collect 13 runs. Salt began the second over on a good note too by hitting the second ball from Kyle Jamieson for a four.
However, Jamieson had his man on the very next ball thanks to a fine catch under pressure from Shreyas Iyer. It was a length delivery from the New Zealand star and Salt wanted to play a big shot but ended up miscuing the shot towards mid-on where Shreyas Iyer stayed calm and completed a brilliant catch.
