Etched in Red and Gold: The Night My King Won It All ❤️🔥
After eighteen long years, here it was!!! We were in the finals yet again!! And, 3rd June 2025, was the finale🔥
With such an outstanding performance by each individual in every game, I truly believed this was the year we’d finally win that maiden trophy!
Social media was buzzing with all kinds of content about RCB—expected celebrations, the emotional rollercoaster of a journey till 2025, poojas, prayers—it all connected with me deeply. And not just in Bengaluru; it was the entire country celebrating the team’s journey. Man! It is indeed a damn special team and a special year!!! I felt just like everyone else out there, wanting my team, my captain, my king to lift his trophy this year.
Never had I imagined that I would become this emotional, fuzzy, and on edge with just the thought of the match. I needed some kind of reassurance that we were going to win—more than anything else in the world that day. I even wanted to reconnect with people I had drifted apart from, just to talk to someone who felt the same. But sadly, that didn’t help much.
The match was even more intense because it was between RCB and Punjab. One team had my soul; the other had my love😜. Yes, it’s Iyer!!! He was also at his best this season—both as a captain and a player. With all this running through my mind, I couldn't bear the tension alone. So I went to my brother’s place, and we attended a live screening.
I was completely engrossed in the match. I honestly don’t know how I would’ve handled the stress if I had stayed home alone. I’m glad I went there—most of the people in the crowd were RCB fans, and celebrating with them felt so much better.
As the final moment approached, I was on my feet. And after that, all I remember is myself screaming all over the place, with tears rolling down my face as I watched my idol overwhelmed with emotion. It was one of the most special moments of my life—my happiness was at its absolute peak. Every cell in my body wanted to dance, and my vocal cords just wanted to scream louder and louder to the world: My man has done it!
He had finally achieved the one trophy that had eluded him—the IPL trophy. The trophy that made the league special, that had made the team’s journey so unique. And he did it after 18 iconic years!
What more could I wish for? The entire team ran toward him as he went down on his knees, flooded with emotions. It was a priceless moment—for the team, for the fans, and for the king himself.
And how could I forget our very own Mr. 360 and the Giant Gayle, both present on the field that day? These two legends made the IPL look like an easy game in their prime years at RCB and set a benchmark that stood for nearly two decades. Some of their records still remain untouched!
That moment when he lifted the IPL trophy—he completed cricket itself. Every major cricketing trophy is now in his cabinet. He is the GOAT for real.
Even now, three months later as I type this, it still feels like yesterday. I can replay every scene of that day in my head as clearly as ever. That victory has etched itself into my heart forever. I would give anything to see that joy on his face again and again, for years to come.
A special shoutout to our queen, Anushka, who has stood by him through every phase of this journey. They truly are the luckiest to have each other. I’m sure every girl dreams of a man like him. I hope that dream comes true in my own story one day—because he’s set the bar high.
That day, I felt every emotion—joy, love, happiness, pride, the satisfaction of seeing a dream fulfilled. And the beauty of it all? It happened in the 18th year of IPL, and it was jersey no. 18 lifting his very first trophy. If that’s not a god-written script, I don’t know what is.
He knows what to give, whom to give it to, and exactly when to give it. That’s the lesson I take with me from that day—trust the timing of the universe. It always delivers.
If you’re an RCB fan—or a fan of any IPL team—I’d love to hear your story and how you celebrated your team’s journey!
