"Patience Zaroori Hai": Delhi Police's Viral Post After RCB Wins IPL After 18 Years
In the 18th edition of cricket's marquee league, it was India's number 18 who finally added the missing feather to his cap. Virat Kohli, the former RCB captain who persisted with the franchise for 18 years despite all the highs and lows, lifted the only trophy that eluded him for nearly two decades.
Celebrating RCB's win, the Delhi Police shared a post to draw home a point about being patient and not driving before you turn 18. " Virat jeet ke liye Patience zaroori hai! (You have to be patient for a huge win)," the Delhi Police wrote.
The post also carried a note to people who insist on driving a car or riding a bike before turning 18. "See, they waited for 18 years and you're already insisting your parents let you drive or ride," the note read.

Coming back to the game, RCB, batting first, were off to a flying start, courtesy of Phil Salt and Virat Kohli. After Salt's dismissal, Kohli and Mayank Agrawal steadied the RCB innings. With contributions from Rajat Patidar, Liam Livingstone, and Jitesh Sharma, RCB set a target of 191.
While chasing, PBKS, for the most part, stayed in the game despite losing wickets at regular intervals. However, it was Krunal Pandya's magical spell of 2-17 in four hours that turned the tie in RCB's favour.
Apart from Pandya, Josh Hazlewood, Bhuvneshwar Kumar, and Yash Dayal also bowled well towards the end of the innings to secure the maiden title for their side. Shashank Singh's brilliant unbeaten 30-ball 61 brought PBKS close to the target but not close enough. He hit Hazelwood for three sixes and a four in the last over, but the team fell short by six runs. And it was Bengaluru and Virat Kohli's night to celebrate.

IND vs ENG: Mohammed Siraj bowled lot of overs for a 5-Test series
India's Mohammed Siraj, right, reacts after bowls a delivery on day four of the fifth cricket test match between England and India at The Kia Oval in London, Sunday, Aug. 3, 2025. (AP Photo/Kirsty Wigglesworth) Chennai: England may have let themselves down by allowing India to draw the series from a winning position. But according to Australian whiteball allrounder Marcus Stoinis, that will not impact Ben Stokes' team come the Ashes later this year. 'They (England) have very talented players, and it will be interesting to see the style of cricket they play against Australia in the Ashes. I do not know what the pitches will be like, but I think they will be able to work out the plan that will be necessary to be competitive. Go Beyond The Boundary with our YouTube channel. SUBSCRIBE NOW! 'However, I believe that Australia are going to win,' said Stoinis, who will represent Trent Rockets in The Hundred that starts on Tuesday. Stoinis also had a word of praise for Mohammed Siraj, who played a big role in India's victory at The Oval on Monday. 'Siraj has just played a great five-Test series for India, bowled a lot of overs and done really well,' the allrounder said. Shubman Gill and Mohammed Siraj press conference: India stars answer all questions Stoinis is looking forward to working with Rockets coach Andy Flower, who guided RCB to their first IPL win earlier this year. 'Andy's had a very successful coaching reign for a long time now and the experience he has got is immense. His ability to work with a variety of set-ups and develop his own blueprint for building a winning culture quickly in itself is a valuable skill in T20s,' Stoinis said. 'We only got together yesterday (Sunday) for the first time, and the tournament will be over in about 29 days. So, you have to get up and running really quickly. I think having a head coach like Andy, someone who has been around and understands that dynamic and how to build a team quickly, is a big reason why he is such a sought-after coach.' Having failed to qualify for the playoffs in the last two years, Season 2 champions Trent Rockets will look to turn things around. 'We (players) shared some thoughts on the style of cricket we want to play, the type of environment we want in the changing rooms. There are a few familiar faces in the coaching staff and in the playing crew. I am looking forward to getting out to train and seeing the boys have a crack,' Stoinis added.
