Kohli's dream faces Kings' blockade
Cape Argus
|June 03, 2025
PUNJAB Kings stand in the way of Virat Kohli’s dream of finally winning the IPL in Tuesday’s final at the world’s biggest cricket stadium.
-
No matter which team prevails at the 132 000-capacity venue in Ahmedabad, it will be a first — neither Punjab nor Kohli’s Royal Challengers Bengaluru have won the IPL since its launch in 2008.
Punjab booked their place in the decider with a five-wicket victory over five-time champions Mumbai Indians on Sunday. Shreyas Iyer played a captain's knock with an unbeaten 87.
Kohli and Bengaluru will carry a psychological edge after thrashing Punjab by eight wickets at the start of the playoffs last week. It is the fourth time that Kohli and his team have reached the final of cricket's richest tournament, but they have never been able to take that last step.
