Patidar: ‘Virat Kohli is more entitled to someone else’
Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) Beat Punjab kings (PBK) By six runs In IPL 2025 To take up his first title in Ahmedabad. Here is described how his players reacted after the victory.
Silver: This is really special to me, special for special Virat Kohli And all fans who have supported us for years. So I think they all deserve it. After qualifier 1, we thought we could do it.
I think 190 was a good score on this track because it was a bit slow. The way our bowlers carried out their plans were tremendous to see. (On Krunal Pandya) Of course, he is a wicket -taking bowler. Whenever I come under pressure, I check where KP is. I had a lot of faith in him.
Suyash (Sharma) also really bowled well throughout the season and all bowlers, fast bowlers, Bhuvi (Bhuvneshwar Kumar), Yash (Dayal), (Josh) Hazelwood. And the way Romio (Shepherd) came and the way he gave two-three overs and that success (wicket of Shreyas Iyer), I think it was really special.
It is a great chance for me to captain (Kohli) and it was a great learning for me. And as I said, I think he is more entitled to someone else – Virat Kohli and all fans. And after that, I think everyone who has supported, everyone, management, assistant staff, coaching staff. I think the way he has supported every player, I think it was beautiful.
Krunal PandyaPlayer of the Match: When we batted in the first innings, I held a discussion with the batsmen and felt that the slower you are, the better it is, and it is difficult (to hit the batsmen). In this format, as a bowler, you need courage to do so because the margin of error is very low. I just supported myself and thought that if I can separate my speed and keep it slow, I will create opportunities, instead of firing it.
What has been my greatest strength, learn what the situation is necessary. I have always supported my intestine and instinct, and even today, I realized that if I was able to take some wickets in the middle – I had to be a little brave – then the game would be in our hands. I just thought that if I could bowl slowly, I will be able to get some wickets. And I am happy that this happened.
If you bowled early on that surface, it would have been a good (for) batsman. But if you keep separating your speed, then some help. In the second innings, batting compared to the first innings became a little better.
When I joined RCB, I told him that I like to win the trophy. After three and a half months, it is happy that I was able to fulfill everything I had said – I really appeared.
(On his fourth IPL Trophy) This is great, right? I mean ten years, four IPL trophies. I also told Hardik (Pandya) on the phone that there will be nine trophies in Pandya’s house, in 11 years.
Phil Salt: This is an incredible feeling right now. Honestly, I do not know where I am in minutes. I have not slept the most, but the boys are so proud. Everywhere we go, we are the best supported team. It is ridiculous, fanbase. And we have found AB (de Villiers) here, we have found Chris (Gayle) here. Everyone is back. If you play for them, you love the franchise. If you support them, you love them, and we are very grateful to it. Thanks to us for supporting us, thanks for coming out in numbers. In the early days of Comp, there were some games where we were behind eight balls, and we rode the crowd, so you have won more games, as much as you think of this IPL for us.
Jitesh Sharma: I can’t express anything right now. I am very happy for Virat Brother As he has been waiting for it for 18 years. As a human, I can understand how he feels when a person waits for the trophy for 18 years. I have said that before you play for others, you do something extraordinary. When you play for yourself, you are conservative. You feel insecure. But when you want to do something for someone else, it is magical.
Josh hazalwood: I think 190 was a very good score. I think the wicket was slightly above and below. It may be better when it is night, but I think our people really fought with the bat to post that score. Everyone ran inside and the bowlers caught their veins. (Winning it after 18 years with RCB on Kohli) Yes, it may mean everything. Some of us come and others go to franchise, but to stay there from the beginning and just take it out for 18 seasons and tonight to get the results, I think we will see a little feeling. (Returning to the playoffs before the WTC final) You only play better in such situations, achieve that experience. It only connects strings to your bow, so I am very happy that I have come back, feel a part of this franchise that I have been for many years, and yes, it’s great.
Dinesh karthik: This is a team that waited for 18 years, played very good cricket, he had to wait for his time. This belongs to every fan. Virat Kohli, he has been for almost 18 years. Great like AB de Villiers, Chris Gayle, they all tried their hearts. Assistant staff like Shankar Basu, Mane Kaka – All these people have waited 18 years, so I am very happy for them.
From the very beginning, we were confident that we were a team that was good. We had a lot of locations covered. If the way we wanted, I knew that things would work in our favor. The boys stand at different points of great time to see. Even today, it was a high pressure game; He (PBKS) actually pushed us – it was not an easy wicket to bat. But I think we put a score that was equal. There was a little bit in the pitch. But it is not about the game, final, it is not about the pitch. It’s about the feeling, it’s about how much your tank is in and there is fire to win, and I think we had a lot today.
Andy Flower put us through hardness, actually pushed us to become a good assistant employee. I have become a better batting coach compared to starting, obviously this is my first time … The way he prepared me, helped me … There was a plan and a vision from the beginning of Mo Bobat. This is the culmination of efforts.
Bhuvneshwar Kumar: Of course, we knew that this (pitch) was not easy. So we thought that there would be a good score to defend 180 and we got 190. So it was ten more than what we thought. The way we carried out our plans say a lot about the bowling unit. I think his (Kunal Pandya’s) mantra changed the scenario for us, the way he bowled in the middle overs. But yes, the change of speed was not easy, but we talked about it, that we are not going to finish it. We will use our other options and then use a slow option.
Mayank Aggarwal (On arrival as a replacement): Life is very, very unexpected. If we can put, keep grinding, it can change and it can be 360 (180 degrees).
