The match between Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) and Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) in IPL 2025 was a complete thriller. RCB chased down a huge target of 228 runs, their highest-ever in IPL history.

But what caught everyone’s attention after the match was Jitesh Sharma’s celebration, something fans had seen before.

The moment was exactly like Avesh Khan’s celebration from 2023. Back then, Avesh had thrown his helmet after beating RCB at Chinnaswamy Stadium, which created a lot of noise on social media.

This time, the tables turned. RCB won and the celebration came from their skipper Jitesh Sharma doing the same thing Avesh Khan once did against them. Many fans saw this as a fitting reply and a bit of banter from Jitesh.

RCB March Into Qualifier 1

Jitesh’s fiery knock not only helped RCB win but also pushed them into the top two. They will now face Punjab Kings in Qualifier 1 on May 29. LSG, on the other hand, are out of the playoff race.

This match had everything, big scores, no-ball drama, failed mankad, and now, a celebration that will be remembered. Jitesh Sharma’s passion and leadership have brought RCB one step closer to their dream of winning the IPL title.
