Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) finally won their first IPL trophy by defeating Punjab Kings by 6 runs in the final match of IPL 2025 played at Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad on Tuesday (June 3). After this victory, all the focus was on Virat Kohli and after winning the first trophy, he was also seen crying and many pictures of him celebrating happily also surfaced.
During this, Virat Kohli was also seen celebrating with his old coach Ravi Shastri. At this time, a video of Virat and Shastri is becoming very viral on social media, in which it can be seen that on seeing Shastri, he runs towards him like a small child and jumps into his lap. You can see the video of this funny moment below.
The relationship between Virat and Shastri is very old. During Shastri's tenure as India's head coach and Kohli's captaincy tenure, both have worked together and played a role in giving a new direction to the Indian Test team. Shastri's time with the Indian team ended after the 2021 T20 World Cup in the UAE, where India crashed out in the group stage. Kohli also resigned as India's T20 captain soon after.
At the same time, speaking to Matthew Hayden after the match, Virat Kohli said that this is a victory for the fans as much as anyone else. He said that he wants to celebrate it with AB de Villiers. He said, "This victory is as much for the fans as it is for the team. It's been 18 years. I have given my youth, my best and my experience to this team. I have tried to win it every season, given my all. It is an incredible feeling to finally win it. Never thought this day would come, I was filled with emotions after the last ball was bowled. I put all my energy and it is an amazing feeling. What ABD has done for the franchise is tremendous, I told him 'This victory is as much yours as it is ours. I want you to celebrate with us.'"
