IPL 2025 has been serving up tons for cricket fans to chew over. From laugh-out-loud bits to heartwarming scenes, social media’s been lit up with clips that remind us why this tournament’s got that magic touch.
Here’s what’s been catching everyone’s eye so far.
Kohli’s Cheeky Shove
In the RCB vs. MI clash at Wankhede, Virat Kohli and Jasprit Bumrah gave fans a moment to laugh about. After Bumrah had a go at running Kohli out at the non-striker’s end, Kohli playfully nudged him with a little push as he strolled back.
Bumrah cracked up, and you could see the genuine camaraderie between these two players. Fans ate it up, loving this peek at the fun side of their on-field rivalry.
Dhoni’s Spot-On Call
MS Dhoni proved why he’s called ‘Captain Cool’ in CSK’s game against Delhi. Sitting in the dressing room, he said “out hai” before replays showed an LBW that the on-field umpire had missed.
This showed how well Dhoni understands cricket, even when he’s not on the field. Fans were amazed at how he knew the outcome before anyone else.
Fans Fight in Guwahati
Not all moments were fun. During RR’s match against KKR in Guwahati, RR fans got into a fight in the stands. Security had to step in to break it up.
This led to talks about how fans should behave at matches. It wasn’t a good look, but it got people talking about crowd control at IPL games.
Livingstone’s Bat Takes Flight
In a funny moment during RCB vs GT, Liam Livingstone’s bat slipped out of his hands mid-shot. It flew through the air and landed on the pitch, surprising everyone.
Fans had a field day with this, making jokes and memes about Livingstone’s ‘flying bat’. It added some humor to an otherwise serious game.
Kohli’s Record-Breaking Welcome
When Kohli came out to bat for RCB against MI at Wankhede, the crowd cheered so loud it hit 138 decibels. That’s louder than a jet taking off and beats the previous record set for Dhoni.
This showed just how popular Kohli is, even in away games. It felt like he was playing at his home ground.
Fan Touches Parag’s Feet
During RR’s match with Punjab, a fan ran onto the field to touch Riyan Parag’s feet. Some said the fan was paid to do this, but no one knows for sure.
People online had fun with this, making jokes about Parag being treated like royalty. Some thought it was just for show, while others found it funny.
Krunal’s Last-Over Magic
In a nail-biting finish, Krunal Pandya took three wickets in the last over to win the game for RCB against MI. With MI needing 13 runs and Hardik Pandya at the crease, Krunal kept his cool and turned the game around.
This exciting end not only helped RCB but also showed how Krunal could handle pressure. It’s a moment fans will remember for a long time.
A Funny Break in the Press Room
During a post-match press conference, Lucknow Super Giants coach Justin Langer caught everyone off guard in the best way. When a reporter’s phone started ringing, Langer spotted ‘Mom’ on the screen, grinned, and asked, “Who’s Maa?” With a quick okay from the reporter, he answered it himself, saying, “Mom, it’s 12:08 AM, I’m at a press conference.” The room burst into laughter.
It was a random, hilarious moment that showed off Langer’s playful side and good mood after LSG’s win over Mumbai Indians. What could’ve been an annoying interruption turned into one of the tournament’s funniest highlights so far.
