In a thrilling IPL 2025 clash, Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) chased down a mammoth 228-run target set by Lucknow Super Giants (LSG), securing a top-two finish in the points table. LSG skipper Rishabh Pant dazzled with a scintillating 118 off 61 balls, guiding his team to their highest-ever IPL score of 227. However, Jitesh Sharma turned the tide with a superhuman knock of 85 from just 33 balls, supported by Virat Kohli’s crucial half-century. The electrifying match confirmed RCB’s place in Qualifier 1 and showcased Sharma’s explosive finishing under pressure, overshadowing Pant’s valiant effort. (PC: BCCI)
