Virat Kohli’s ‘18 till I fly’ dream takes off as RCB universe conspires to try giving their talisman the elusive IPL trophy

Couple of years ago, a bespectacled Virat Kohli unexpectedly opened his heart out to a small gathering of RCB women players. They had had a disastrous season that year, their first, and Kohli didn’t just offer vague consultatory words, but dipped into his own experiences, his failures, his insecurities and his long wait for the IPL trophy. “If we don’t win I am not going to go to my grave thinking only if I had won the IPL I would have been a happy man dying; it doesn’t happen like that!” he smiled.

Rain is expected to play some role in IPL 2025 final, as PBKS and RCB look to lift the IPL trophy for the first time.

As the weather report suggests, a brief rainfall spell is expected in the evening at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad. However, the weather conditions remain quite dynamic, with potential drizzle holding the potential to become incessant rainfall.

What happens if IPL 2025 final is washed out due to rain?

Unlike Qualifier 1, Qualifier 2, and Eliminator, the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) has kept a reserve day in place for the IPL 2025 final. If the match isn't possible on Tuesday due to rain, it will be completed on Wednesday (May 04).

What happens if IPL 2025 final is washed out on Reserve Day too?

In such a case, the team that finished higher in the league stage will be crowned champion. This means Punjab Kings would go on to lift the title while Royal Challengers Bengaluru would return empty-handed.

RCB vs PBKS: IPL Awaits a new winner

Punjab Kings and Royal Challengers Bengaluru have never won once. RCB has reached the IPL final thrice (2009, 2011, 2016) and returned home without a trophy. On the other hand, Punjab earned a spot in the final for the first time in 11 years. In 2014, Punjab made its way into the final but fell short against the eventual winners, Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR).

Bengaluru and Punjab have played 36 IPL matches against each other so far. So far, nothing separates the two as both teams have won 18 each. En route to the final, RCB defeated Punjab Kings by eight wickets in Qualifier 1, with Philip Salt smashing a solid 56-run knock. Meanwhile, Punjab Kings reached the final by overcoming Mumbai Indians by five wickets, powered by Shreyas Iyer's crucial 87-run innings.
