The Royal Challengers Bengaluru have made it to the finals of the Indian Premier League 2025 edition for the fourth time. Though Virat Kohli is the team’s highest run-getter, each player’s contribution has been significant. This can be advocated by the fact that in nine matches, the RCB players have been awarded to nine different players in every game. – Krunal Pandya, Rajat Patidar, Phil Salt, Tim David, Virat Kohli, Josh Hazlewood, Romario Shephard, Jitesh Sharma and Suyash Sharma in the qualifier 1 against the Punjab Kings were awarded the players of the match award for his remarkable spell of 3/17.
“My coaches gave me just one role, which is to hit the stumps whether I bowl legbreak, googly, flipper or any other variation. It (googly) is my stock ball and also I got a bit of help from the wicket as well. Not quite now (whether he will be celebrating tonight), I will celebrate on 3rd (June) and very hard as well.” Suyash Sharma said.
