The Indian Premier League final concluded with Royal Challengers Bengaluru emerging as champions after a five-wicket victory over the Gujarat Titans. Held at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad, the match saw Bengaluru successfully chase the target set by their opponents to secure the title.

Gujarat Titans batted first, finishing their allotted twenty overs with a total of 155 runs for the loss of eight wickets. Washington Sundar provided a notable contribution for the Titans, reaching a half-century during the final stages of the innings. Rasikh Salam proved effective for the Bengaluru bowling attack, concluding his spell with figures of 3 for 27.

During the Gujarat innings, Bhuvneshwar Kumar also made a significant impact. By dismissing Jason Holder, Kumar reached 28 wickets for the season, equalling the record for the highest number of wickets taken in a single IPL campaign. Despite these efforts, the Gujarat total remained at 155, providing a target that Bengaluru aimed to surpass.

In the second innings, the chase was anchored by Virat Kohli. The match reached a critical moment in the 16th over when Kohli survived a potential dismissal. A lofted shot off Arshad Khan was initially caught by Shubman Gill, but the third umpire determined the ball made contact with the ground, resulting in a not-out decision.

As the game neared its conclusion, the required run rate remained manageable. Jitesh Sharma partnered with Kohli to maintain the scoring pace. The duo navigated tight bowling from Rashid Khan and Arshad Khan, ensuring the team remained in a strong position to reach the target without further loss of wickets.

In the final over, Kohli secured the victory with a decisive six. Facing Arshad Khan, Kohli cleared his front leg to launch a slower delivery over the long-on fence. This final blow confirmed the five-wicket win, marking a second IPL title for the Bengaluru franchise following their previous success.

The victory celebrations began immediately on the field as the Bengaluru camp acknowledged the achievement. The match officials and players concluded the tournament proceedings following the final delivery, which officially leveled the scores before the winning six was struck.
