Swastik Chikara, a young batter of Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) and one of the biggest admirers of Virat Kohli, has brutally mocked Punjab Kings (PBCK) after his team’s dominant eight-wicket win in Qualifier 1 in Chandigarh that took them to the IPL 2025 final.
On Thursday, May 29, Swastik Chikara could not hold back his excitement after Royal Challengers Bengaluru qualified for the IPL finals after nine years, and he went live on Instagram after forcing PBKS to try their luck in the Qualifier 2 to make it to the IPL 2025 final.
Swastik Chikara mocked Punjab Kings after RCB stormed into the IPL 2025 Final
During the live session, Chikara invited Suyash Sharma and Yash Dayal to show up while praising the duo for their stunning performance in crushing Punjab Kings in Qualifier 1, saying, “Bhaiyon ne dande ukhaad diye Punjab ke (Brothers uprooted the stumps of Punjab).”
While Suyash Sharma finished with a stunning spell of 3/17 in 3 overs, Yash Dayal scalped two wickets in his overs. He credited the duo for RCB’s one-sided victory in PBKS’s home ground.
He mocked PBKS, saying they didn’t even stand in front of the RCB, and they were mere spectators. Swastik Chikara said, “The Punjabi team couldn't even stand in front of us. It's all God's grace.”
By God's grace, we'll win the finals: Swastik Chikara
With RCB now just one step away from glory, Chikara fired shots at the other teams by saying only the Royal Challengers Bengaluru is the real contender for the IPL 2025 title.
Chikara added, “RCB will win the final one-sided. It's all God's grace. There's no team stronger than RCB. There's no competition.”
He also warned that the final will be a one-sided affair, no matter who will face RCB in Ahmedabad on June 3. Swastik added, “There's only one match now. We're going to Ahmedabad now. Let’s see which team comes, then we'll see. By God's grace, we'll win the finals.”

Swastik Chikara steals the spotlight with his bromance for Virat Kohli
Notably, RCB had signed Chikara for INR 30 lakh at the IPL 2025 mega auctions, but the aggressive top-order batter is yet to make his debut for the side in this season. He will end his season only on the bench, but still, he managed to grab the headlines for his love for Virat Kohli.
The Uttar Pradesh lad was always seen around Virat Kohli, and even the former RCB and Indian captain, many times, admitted that he was just annoyed by the youngster this season. And even Virat Kohli recently jokingly said, “Dimaag khaata rehta hai hamesha (he keeps annoying me).”
Well, Virat Kohli might have failed to make an impact in the Qualifier against the PBKS, but he is the man for the big stages, and all eyes will be on the dashing right-hander when RCB takes the field in the final at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad on Sunday.
He is currently the fifth leading run scorer this season with 614 runs at an average of over 55 across 14 innings so far, and there is definitely a big knock loading from the RCB icon in the summit clash.
