The stage is set for a historic IPL 2025 final as Punjab Kings and Royal Challengers Bengaluru, both chasing their first-ever title, face off at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad on Tuesday, June 3. Ahead of the D day, Punjab Kings skipper Shreyas Iyer's family sent special message for the team.

Punjab Kings shared the video on social media, where Iyer’s mother and sister sent heartfelt wishes filled with Punjabi pride and positivity. The video began with a spirited “Chardi Kala”a Punjabi phrase for staying in high spirits, after which Shreyas’ sister said, “Thank you to all the Punjab fans for supporting us since day one. We are very, very grateful. To the team all the very best for tomorrow."

"And we are incredibly proud of each one of you. Tomorrow is our day. Just go out there and lift the cup. And we are super excited for tomorrow. Shreyas’ mother ended the video with a powerful message, "Bas Jeetna Hai"

RCB & PBKS date with history

While RCB will be playing in their fourth IPL final, it's a big return for Punjab Kings, who are making their first appearance in the final since 2014.

Leading the charge for PBKS is captain Shreyas Iyer, who has been in top form this season, scoring 603 runs in 16 matches at a strike rate of 175.80 and an average of 54.82, with six half-centuries.

Punjab Kings finished the league stage on top with 19 points. Though they lost Qualifier 1 to RCB, they bounced back strongly by defeating Mumbai Indians in Qualifier 2, earning a rematch with Bengaluru in the final.

Punjab Kings captain Shreyas Iyer is chasing history. If he wins tonight, he has the chance to write history by becoming the first captain to win IPL titles with two different teams. He previously won with Kolkata Knight Riders last year.
