RCB Wins IPL After 17 years of emotional highs, crushing lows, and unwavering loyalty from millions of fans, Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) went through their roller coaster ride to lift the RCB First IPL trophy for the first time ever in 2025. What a beautiful and epic moment in cricket history. For a franchise that was so often ribbed about "Ee Sala Cup Namde" ("This time cup is ours"), well now it is theirs!

After 17 Long Years RCB Won IPL 2025

The 2025 RCB slight will be one that will be remembered for its exceptional season. The team was very professional, there was a good balance of experience and youth, key contributors, and good leadership. Whilst the season unfolded, the consistency and balance as displayed by the team were commendable. The talented batting line-up has set parameters, sensible use of bowling arsenal, and a buzz of fields. Leaders such as Faf du Plessis and teammates who were able to raise energy levels across the long finals were crucial. RCB weathered the pressure of the chase and finished the job with some balls remaining.

The unique moment was also documented in the influence of Virat Kohli as the face of RCB going on 10 years, and it ultimately influenced the Match and the team that day. Kohli will no longer be the captain for RCB, but his credentials as a leader should not be doubted!

Due to his phenomenal performance in the final, Kohli definitely rightfully received the Player of the Match accolade, while the emotional images of Kohli crying tears of joy at the final whistle resonated with fans all over the world.

From last-place teams in dormant seasons to three barren seasons with final defeats, RCB's sustained suffering lends weight to the victory. This is a story of persistence, trust, and the loyal support of fans. The streets of Bengaluru exploded with celebration as thousands flooded the streets, chanting slogans and waving RCB flags and reliving the moment every diehard fan had waited for after nearly two decades of failures.

The IPL 2025 win is not just about earning the trophy and bolstering the trophy cabinet; it totally shifts the story. The RCB is no longer a fan-favourite it is a champion franchise. Players, support staff, and the fans can now delightfully tell themselves their years of passion, support, and patience are finally rewarded. The 2025 season will forever be remembered as the season where RCB changed the story and broke the longest title drought in IPL history.
