Anushka Sharma Looks Grim As Virat Kohli Fails To Go Big In RCB vs PBKS IPL 2025 Final
Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) icon Virat Kohli hit a clumsy 35-ball 43 in the Indian Premier League (IPL) final against Punjab Kings (PBKS) on Tuesday. Kohli hit just three boundaries during his stay in the middle, before being caught and bowled by Azmatullah Omarzai on the penultimate ball of the 15th over. The 36-year-old mistimed a rising delivery to give Omarzai a crucial wicket for PBKS. Kohli's wife Anushka Sharma, who was in the stands, was completely shattered following the dismissal. Anushka seemed visibly subdued, just like thousands of fans who were in the stands to support RCB and Kohli. US ANUSHKA US. #IPLFinals #RCBvPBKS — Prashant Shukla (@PrashantSh67875) June 3, 2025 Virat played the anchor's role for the majority of the first innings but failed to convert it into a substantial score. RCB struggled to find its power-hitting mojo in the middle overs and required firepower to shift the momentum in their favour. For the majority of the time, Virat struggled to find a way to escape Punjab's short-ball ploy before returning on 43 from 35 deliveries. Irfan wasn't pleased with Virat's 122.86 strike rate, considering how the pitch played out and the amount of time he spent on the field. Following his dismissal, the 36-year-old batting maestro ended his campaign with 657 runs in 15 matches and innings at an average of 54.75, with a strike rate of 144.71, with eight fifties. His best score this season is 73*. It took a brisk approach from the middle-order to notch up cracking shots and power RCB to 190/9. Still, Arshdeep Singh (3/40) and Kyle Jamieson's (3/48) sizzling three-wicket hauls denied Bengaluru a 200-run mark. Earlier, PBKS captain Shreyas Iyer won the toss and opted to bowl in what was a repeat of IPL 2025 Qualifier 1.

Shreyas Iyer Slammed After Flop Show vs RCB In IPL 2025 Qualifier 1: "Put Your Ego in Your Pocket"
Former Australian cricket team all-rounder Tom Moody asked Shreyas Iyer to 'keep his ego inside his pocket' after failing to score big against Royal Challengers Bengaluru in the IPL 2025 Qualifier 1 match on Thursday. Shreyas could score just two before he was dismissed by Josh Hazlewood for 2 as PBKS were bundled out for 101. Shreyas was criticised heavily for his shot selection with Sunil Gavaskar talking about it on commentary during the match. Moody said that Shreyas did not read the situation properly and considering his terrible record against Hazlewood, he should have approached it in a different way. 'At times, you need to put your ego in your pocket and just move forward. To me that was the perfect example of not reading the situation – trying to overcome something that has been a darkness in the past instead of just swallowing your pride and just moving on by just accumulating,' said Moody on ESPNCricinfo 'Timeout'. 'You only had to see Hazlewood out. It was a simple thing – see him out and look to dissect the rest of their attack,' he added. Moody added that Shreyas misread the game situation and his wicket was a huge moment that played a part in PBKS losing the game comprehensively. 'The first ball he played and missed – the perfect line that you'd expect Hazlewood to bowl. He sort of played at it, but didn't really want to play at it. And then, that third ball he got out,' said Moody. 'To me, he totally misread the game situation and his own situation. Yes, he would be aware that Hazlewood has had him a few times in the past. He would know the exact numbers,' he added. Listen to the latest songs, only on
