June 2, IPL 2025: IPL 2025 has almost reached its conclusion. Today, the title match between Punjab Kings and Royal Challengers Bangalore will be played in Ahmedabad. Fans are eagerly waiting for this match. Fans are happy that the league will get a new champion. Both Punjab and Bengaluru have never won the title. However, the two teams have met earlier in the qualifiers, where RCB defeated Punjab by eight wickets.
In the figures and on paper, RCB’s claim looks stronger, but with the manner in which Punjab beat five-time champions Mumbai, the RCB team will not take the risk of taking Shreyas and Co lightly at all. As the fans are divided over the winner, some media platforms also asked AI platforms such as Grok, Gemini and ChatGPT for their predictions for the final. Everyone chose the same team.
X Grok
X Grok said, ‘Based on the available data, RCB seems to be getting the lead. They secured their place in the final with an eight-wicket win over Punjab in Qualifier 1. He was bowled out for 101 and reached the target with 60 balls to spare. RCB’s bowling has been strong under the leadership of Josh Hazlewood (21 wickets in 11 matches) and Suyesh Sharma, while its batting has been superb thanks to Virat Kohli (614 runs at an average of 55.81) and Phil Salt. RCB’s brilliant performance in Ahmedabad and their ability to handle high-pressure situations gives them the edge. Experts like David Warner and Shane Watson have also backed RCB. Warner predicts Hazlewood to be player of the final.
Punjab, however, did well in Qualifier 2. Thanks to Shreyas Iyer’s unbeaten 87, Punjab chased down 203 runs against Mumbai Indians. With the presence of Kyle Jamieson and Yuzvendra Chahal, Punjab has potential in bowling. However, due to the defeat against RCB in Qualifier-1, there will be pressure on them. Given RCB’s current form, balanced squad, I predict that Royal Challengers Bangalore will win the IPL 2025 final. The match could be close if Punjab chase the target and take advantage of the dew, but RCB’s depth and experience in big games make them potential champions.’
Gemini
Gemini said, ‘This is a much-awaited final between two teams eager to lift their first IPL trophy. RCB may have a slight edge based on recent matches this season and performance in Qualifier-1. Punjab Kings have played well and have the explosive batting to challenge any team. The result will depend on the performance of the day. Along with this, factors like toss and weather can also be important. If I were to bet on the IPL 2025 final between RCB and PBKS, it would be an incredibly tough call, as both teams have many reasons why they could win their maiden title. However, if I am forced to choose, I might lean slightly towards Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB).’
ChatGPT
ChatGPT said, ‘Given RCB’s consistent form and previous win over Punjab this season, they are being tipped as favorites for the final. However, the Shreyas Iyer-led Punjab team can challenge Bengaluru. The prediction is that looking at RCB’s recent form and head-to-head statistics, this team can win.’
