IPL 2025 Final: Josh Hazlewood extends perfect finals record, wins another trophy with RCB
By News Desk Published on June 3, 2025, 23:34 IST
Josh Hazlewood's remarkable record in tournament finals remains intact — the Australian pacer added yet another trophy to his glittering career as Royal Challengers Bengaluru clinched their maiden IPL title with a 6-run win over Punjab Kings in the 2025 final.
Hazlewood, who played a key role in RCB's bowling effort on the night, continued an astonishing personal streak — he has never lost a final in any major tournament he has played.
A graphic shown during the broadcast highlighted Hazlewood's unbeaten record in finals: Champions League T20 2012 — Champion
World Cup 2015 — Champion
BBL 2020 — Champion
IPL 2021 — Champion
T20 World Cup 2021 — Champion
World Cup 2023 — Champion
IPL 2025 — Champion
Known for his calm under pressure and consistent performances on big nights, Hazlewood once again delivered for his team when it mattered most. His spells through the middle and at the death were instrumental in restricting Punjab's chase and ensuring RCB finally broke their IPL title drought.
With this latest win, Hazlewood further cements his reputation as one of cricket's greatest big-match players — a bowler who simply doesn't know how to lose in a final.

🥇 Sunday's World Cup highlights: generous Messi, Leila ‘Balboa' and Didico
The round of 16 of the World Cup continued this Sunday (29). Another quarter-final duel was defined after PSG and Bayern dispatched Inter Miami and Flamengo, respectively. You can subscribe to DAZN to watch all the FIFA Club World Cup games for free. Advertisement And there were highlights on social media. With Leila Pereira taking the lead and much more. Leila 'Balboa' 🥊 It's impossible to go to Philadelphia and not repeat the steps of Rocky Balboa, the character immortalized by Sylvester Stallone back in 1976, right? That's what Leila Pereira did when she climbed the 72 steps of the Philadelphia Museum of Art staircase. Which became the Rocky Steps after a statue of the character was installed there. The president of Palmeiras celebrated the team's qualification to the World Cup quarter-finals in this way. And, of course, there was a photo "next to" Rocky. It got tough, Messi... Lionel Messi had "only" his former club in front of him this Sunday. Advertisement The star faced an "away" game even while playing in the United States. The match was played at the Mercedes-Benz Stadium, in Atlanta. The stadium that is home to Atlanta Utd. There was even an unkind banner reminding of Messi's losses against the local rival. Atlanta also defeated Inter Miami 5 x 2 in September 2023. But Messi didn't play. The Argentine, on the other hand, has three victories against the rival. The other match between the teams with Messi on the field ended in a draw. Speaking of Messi... Lionel had a reunion with several former teammates. Dembélé, for example, played with him at Barcelona - he moved to PSG after Messi's departure. Advertisement And he took almost EVERYTHING from the Inter Miami star home. Many joked about the situation: Dembélé also got shirts from two other former Barça teammates: Did Busquets not want to collaborate? It raises the question. Was there a spot for him? Former striker Adriano couldn't contain himself in the final minutes of Flamengo 2 x 4 Bayern. Would it have been different with him there?
