Punjab Kings (PBKS) recently suffered a close defeat by 6 runs against Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) in the IPL 2025 final. In the final, RCB scored 190/9, in response to which Punjab’s team could only score 184 runs for the loss of 7 wickets. PBKS’ 24-year-old batsman Nehal Wadhera scored 15 runs in 18 balls, including a six, at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad. Wadhera, who came to bat at number five, was sent to the pavilion by experienced fast bowler Bhuvneshwar Kumar in the 17th over, after which PBKS started lagging behind in the title match.
Nehal Wadhera has now blamed himself for the defeat in the final and called it his biggest mistake. In an interview with Hindustan Times, when Wadhera was asked if the pitch had changed in the second innings of the final, the batsman replied.
The batsman replied, “I completely blame myself. If I had played better at that time, we could have definitely won. I will not blame the pitch because RCB scored 190 runs. I think I was taking the game deep.” Wadhera further said, “I believe in taking the game deep and finishing it. I think it was one of those days when I could not finish the match.”
He further said, “Whenever there was a need to increase the pace in the tournament, I did so. However, I benefited from it except the last game.” Expressing his disappointment, Nehal said, “Some days it does not click and I think this was the day when it did not happen.”
Wadhera spoke about his game and said, “But I don’t regret that because I was taking the game deep. It was okay according to the situation because wickets were falling.” He admitted his mistake and said, “But I think I could have played a little faster, which I have learned and analyzed.”
Nehal Wadhera expressed his commitment for the future and said, “I will do this in the future and it will help me and the team.” This shows that he is committed to learning from his mistakes and performing better in the next season.
