Thrilling and exciting games were part of the IPL 2025 season, making fans unable to look away until the end. Here is a review of the most memorable meetings.
1. RCB vs PBKS closed the IPL 2025 season
The match between Royal Challengers Bengaluru and Punjab Kings right to the very end was a very close one. Virat Kohli led the way for RCB by making 82 not out and late quick runs from others helped the team to 190/9. Shashank Singh from PBKS played brilliantly with 61 runs off 30 balls almost led them to the victory. Finally, with their good nerve, the bowlers made sure RCB earned their first IPL trophy, winning by just 6 runs in a thrilling finish.
2. RCB Never Lost an Away Game
RCB created a new record in IPL by winning every single away match in a season, proving they were very consistent in challenging conditions.
3. The Punjab Kings Make it to the Playoffs
Dominating victories by PBKS such as their 243/5 against Gujarat Titans in their first match, ended an 11-year gap since they last qualified for the playoffs. Surviving the knockout games, especially with Shreyas Iyer’s 87 runs not out in Qualifier 2, was one of the greatest memories of their WPL season.
Exciting games such as those where teams had to chase high totals and those decided on the last ball, helped build excitement throughout the season.
The tournament in 2025 will be remembered because of the thrilling finishes, record moments and a new team claiming victory after 18 years.
