Not only RCB but also several players won their first-ever accolades in the 2025 Indian Premier League 2025

There’s no doubt that when Royal Challengers Bengaluru lifted its maiden Indian Premier League (IPL) title in 2025, the tournament became all about them and their players. However, the tournament did not turn its back on players from other teams who surpassed everyone on the individual level. In short, players, as every year, were honoured with individual awards.

As the year comes to an end, check out all the accolades won by individual players.

Gujarat Titans’ Sai Sudharsan led the run tally in the tourney, and therefore, he grabbed the Orange Cap ahead of Suryakumar Yadav and Virat Kohli. In 15 IPL matches, Sudharsan scored 759 runs at an average of 54.21 while maintaining a strike rate of 156.17. He also scored one century and six half-centuries. Sudharsan also smacked 88 fours and 21 sixes.

Due to these reasons, Sudharsan was also awarded the Emerging Player award, the Most Fours award, and the Fantasy King of the season.

Moving on to the Purple Cap, which is awarded to the bowler for picking the most wickets, this award too was secured by a Gujarat Titans player, i.e., Prasidh Krisha. In 15 matches, Krishna scalped 25 wickets with a best figure of 4/41, an average of 19.52, and an economy of 8.27. The Titans bowler also picked up one four-wicket haul in the tourney.

The Most Valuable Player award went to the Mumbai Indians’ Suryakumar Yadav for scoring 717 runs in the tournament. He scored 653.3 of total impact points, which is a numerical value based on the sum of a player’s batting/bowling performance. Kumar was one of the reasons why the Mumbai Indians reached the Eliminator round.

The final match of the season saw Punjab Kings and Royal Challengers Bengaluru clash, and Bengaluru eventually won. While the victory was a team effort, Krunal Pandya’s two wickets in four overs at an economy of 4.25 were brilliant. Despite Bengaluru’s meagre 190 in a high-scoring IPL season, Pandya’s bowling efforts helped the team defend the total.

Super Sixes of the Season
