The Royal Challengers Bangalore have stunned the cricketing world by becoming the first team to qualify for the IPL 2025 final. They got their on the back of a dominating win in the first Qualifier, where they absolutely decimated PBKS on all fronts. Hazlewood and Suyash shared three wickets between them, and an overall combined bowling effort resulted in a total capitulation of the PBKS batting lineup as they folded for a meager 101. The target was then chased down swiftly thanks to Salt's unbeaten 56 in a matter of only 10 overs.
This is also the franchise's fourth appearance in the IPL final in 18 years, and also their first since 2016. With a possibility of a new title winner looming large, retired South African batter and former RCB legend AB de Villiers has rallied behind his former franchise. The 41-year-old issued a strong support for RCB and shared a message across to his fan base who are eagerly anticipating RCB to lift the trophy for the first time.
In a close-up interaction with a news reporter, De Villiers was asked how he feels after seeing RCB into the finals. The Protea legend replied by saying that he feels great to see them in the final. He further added how MI outclassed GT in the Eliminator and promises to see a thrilling Qualifier 2 match between PBKS and MI.
