Virat Kohli's nearly two-decade long agonising wait to lay hands on an Indian Premier League (IPL) Trophy with Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) could finally end on Tuesday when the Bengaluru-based franchise lines up against Shreyas Iyer-led Punjab Kings (PBKS).
The summit clash at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad could witness thousands of fans donning jersey No.18 to support Kohli, who is in an IPL final for a fourth time overall.
The IPL 2025 will also have a new champion crowned as the title had remained elusive for both RCB and PBKS till now.
Skipper Iyer made an unbeaten 87 to carry PBKS to a five-wicket win over Mumbai Indians in the Qualifier 2 on Sunday.
This will be Punjab’s first title clash since 2014, and second successive for Iyer as captain after marshalling Kolkata Knight Riders’ triumph in 2024.
The summit clash between RCB and PBKS will be held at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad.
The match is scheduled to be held on Tuesday, June 3, at 7:30 pm (IST).
The Star Sports Network will broadcast the final match on TV, across multiple Star Sports channels.
The action-filled match will be digitally streamed on JioHotstar.
