Delhi: In the final match of IPL 2025, Punjab Kings (PBKS) captain Shreyas Iyer was dismissed for 1 run in just 2 balls on one important occasion. He gave a simple catch to wicketkeeper Jitesh Sharma off Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) bowler Romariyo Shepherd. This wicket shocked Punjab’s hopes and the match turned out to be overturned.
Yograj Singh’s anger erupted
Former Indian cricketer Yograj Singh was very angry with Shreyas’s mistake. He said that the shot that Iyer played was like “criminal crime”. Yograj said in a conversation with ANI, “The shot that Shreyas Iyer played in the final was a criminal act according to me. Ashok Mankad told me that such a shot comes under Section 302, and a two -match ban may be taken for it. It is not worth forgiving.”
Hero was in the last match, Villain made in the final
Shreyas Iyer played a brilliant innings of 87* (41) in qualifier 2 against Mumbai Indians and took the team to the finals. In such a situation, the fans had high expectations from him, but his early dismissal in the final proved to be expensive for the team.
Shashank Singh fought the last battle
After Shreyas was dismissed, Shashank Singh scored an excellent innings of 61* runs in 30 balls and hoped to win, but the team remained 7 runs away from the target.
Pandya and Bhubaneswar overturned
For RCB, Krunal Pandya took 2 wickets for 17 runs in 2 overs and became ‘Player of the Match’. Bhuvneshwar Kumar also kept pressure on Punjab with 2 wickets.
Kohli and Jitesh shine in RCB’s innings
Batting first, RCB scored 190/9 in 20 overs. Virat Kohli scored 43 runs in 35 balls, while Jitesh Sharma scored a fast of 24 runs in 10 balls. For Punjab, Arshdeep Singh and Kyle Jaymison took 3-3 wickets. With this, once again after 11 years, Punjab could not win the IPL trophy even after reaching the final.
