As the IPL 2025 Final draws closer, the real question isn't just who will win — but "whose strategy will succeed." Although among the most famous names in cricket, Shreyas Iyer and Rajat Patidar have led their teams throughout the season with calm precision, smart strategy, and brave decisions. This IPL final is a strategic battle rather than just a simple match.
Delhi Capitals' former captain, Shreyas Iyer, is renowned for making calm, collected decisions. By strategically changing bowlers and supporting young players like Axar Patel and Anrich Nortje to win challenging games, he led DC to their first-ever IPL 2020 final.
However, Rajat Patidar, a relatively new captain, has shown a strong fighting spirit and bold field placements this season. Fans can never forget his game-winning century for RCB in the IPL 2022 Eliminator, even though he has not been an appointed captain for the crucial playoffs. Grabbing opportunities was the main focus of that knock, and since then, he has led his squad in this manner.
On X (previously Twitter), fans are divided. Some feel Iyer's calm mind would outsmart Patidar's daring moves. Others admire Patidar's commitment and hope to see a new-age captain take the cup.
This match will likely come down to who manages pressure better in the last five overs. Iyer's expertise provides him an advantage in cool planning, but Patidar's strong game attention might instantly change the game. Both have unique strengths, and this contrast is what makes the IPL 2025 Final a must-watch.
Who will bag their maiden trophy- Shreyas Iyer or Rajat Patidar? Will see it tonight.
