IPL 2026 has ended. In the final played on Sunday, Royal Challengers Bangalore won their second trophy by defeating Gujarat Titans. Rajat Patidar became the third captain in IPL history to defend the trophy. Here we are telling about 7 such moments of this season, which became the most viral. This includes Virat Kohli’s funny and angry style. This is the moment that happened with Vaibhav Suryavanshi, due to which the whole country became disappointed with him.
The first batsman to be out hit wicket twice consecutively!
Sai Sudarshan being out hit wicket twice consecutively will be remembered for a long time, because this has never happened in IPL history. It has never happened in any other league that a batsman has been out hit wicket in two consecutive matches. Sai was out in the same way against RCB in Qualifier-1 and against Rajasthan Royals in Qualifier-2, his bat missed and hit the wicket. Many memes were also made on this. When he was out for the second time, the reaction of Shubman Gill, who was on non-strike, also went viral.
Funny how Shubhman Gill reacted to Sai Sudharshan’s hit wicket dismissal. I am sure Haydos will give a dressdown of sorts for those buttery fingers.😄pic.twitter.com/IVkVeQNze9

Virat Kohli did not shake hands with Travis Head
Virat Kohli is aggressive on the field, but after the match he is good with everyone. But after the match against SRH, a different side of him was seen, he did not shake hands with Australian batsman Travis Head even though he extended his hand. Both of them had an argument during the match. On this some people criticized Kohli and some defended him.
Look at the way Travis Head went to shake hands with Virat Kohli, but Kohli did not shake hands with him back. Seriously, what happened between them? 👀
I have always seen both of them sharing a good bond during international cricket and even in the IPL. pic.twitter.com/lTrCYyIL20

Kohli’s joke with the umpire
A ‘cute’ video of Virat Kohli went viral when his team was coming out to bowl in Qualifier-1. RCB had made a huge score of 254 runs. As soon as Kohli came to the ground, he started preparing to bowl, took the ball from the umpire and gave him the cap. Actually he was pranking the umpire, he was wondering whether Kohli would really bowl the first over. This funny video between Kohli and the umpire went very viral.

So this is exactly what happened yesterday at the start of second innings.
Kohli wanted to open the bowling, calculated his run-up, and even handed his cap to the umpire. But Patidar told him to give the ball to Duffy. Kohli still didn’t hand it over at first and instead… pic.twitter.com/cRWQuPlq1G

When Vaibhav Suryavanshi was out on 97
IPL 2026 was great for Vaibhav Suryavanshi, he made many records. In this, Chris Gayle’s record of hitting most sixes in a season was important. However, he had also reached the threshold of the record of scoring the fastest century. He was playing after scoring 97 runs on 28 balls, he needed 3 runs in 2 balls to equal this mega-record and 3 runs in 1 ball to break it. He played a bouncer ball towards point, but the ball went towards third man and he was caught out. Even after a historic innings, Vaibhav became disappointed, because even before the start of the season, he had said that he wanted to break Gayle’s record of 30 balls.

Spat between Puran-Krunal Pandya
After the RCB vs LSG match, Nicholas Pooran grabbed Krunal Pandya by the collar and pushed him. Although this was a cute video, because there was not a serious fight between the two, rather it was a fight between friends. Both have played together in LSG and are good friends.
Look at the way Nicholas Pooran grabbed Krunal Pandya by the collar and neck and started a fight after the RCB vs LSG match, looking aggressive as if he was ready to fight after RCB’s loss to LSG. 👀
Later, Krunal said something to Pooran, and both were seen talking calmly again… pic.twitter.com/zhhae6yW5F

Riyan Parag smoked in the dugout
Under the captaincy of Riyan Parag, Rajasthan Royals reached Qualifier-2. This was the first season for Parag as full time captain. However, his form was not impressive and he also got embroiled in a controversy. He was seen vaping during the match, which is a type of intoxicant and is banned in India. BCCI had also taken action against him on this.

Rohit-Suryakumar’s reaction on Iyer’s catch
Manish Pandey got the award for the best catch in IPL 2026, but his claim included the catch which was taken by Bartlett but 100 percent contribution in it was of Shreyas Iyer. He caught the ball in the air after crossing the boundary and threw it inside. The reaction of Suryakumar Yadav and Rohit Sharma sitting there on this attempt was worth watching, both were surprised as to how the last Iyer did this?
Shreyas Iyer may not have won the “Best Catch of the Season” award, but for me this was the catch of the season 😭🔥pic.twitter.com/0decA38Pwi
