Two Unbeaten IPL Final Veterans Could Play Key Role in RCB vs GT Finale
Royal Challengers Bengaluru and Gujarat Titans will be facing each other tonight in the IPL final. And this is the game where even the numbers advantage comes out to be true. There are 2 players featuring in this game who have not lost even a single IPL final they played.
The day is here, and within a few hours, every cricket fan will be looking at the final clash between Royal Challengers Bengaluru and Gujarat Titans. Rajat Patidar will be going against Shubman Gill to showcase who has been the best captain in this season. While both teams are equally strong in this game, there is a rare IPL record which cannot be overlooked.
In the final game, there would be two players who have not lost any IPL final they have played before. And both of these players are a part of the Royal Challengers Bengaluru, as are Krunal Pandya and Josh Hazlewood. Krunal Pandya has featured in a massive total of 4 IPL finals, and his team ended up winning all of them.
He has also won the POTM award in the final two times, being the only player to do so. The second is Josh Hazlewood, who has featured in 2 IPL finals and won both of them. He also helped Chennai Super Kings to win their 4th IPL title, before helping RCB to win its first.
Our Take
The numbers do favour Royal Challengers Bengaluru to a great extent. But Gujarat Titans will be eager to ensure that this game becomes the first final lost by Krunal Pandya and Josh Hazlewood. The stakes are high, as it is not just the final winning streak on the line, it is the coveted IPL title.
