A thrilling encounter between Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) and Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) not only sealed RCB's place in Qualifier 1 of IPL 2025 but also gave fans a new favorite moment—courtesy of Jitesh Sharma. RCB pulled off a dramatic chase of 230 runs, winning the match by six wickets and booking a direct berth in Qualifier 1. The star of the night was none other than Jitesh Sharma, who played a game-changing innings of 85 runs off just 33 balls, smashing 8 fours and 6 sixes in a one-sided show of power hitting.
With Rajat Patidar still recovering from an injury, Jitesh was handed the responsibility to bolster the middle order—and he delivered in style. He was eventually dismissed in the 17th over by Digvesh Rathi, falling at the non-striker’s end, but not before setting the tone for RCB’s victory. Following the intense win, Jitesh Sharma stole hearts off the field as well. A video of him making a playful face after the match has gone viral across social media platforms. In the clip, Jitesh is seen glancing into the camera and making an expressive face, which fans are calling "adorable" and "mischievously cute."
The moment quickly sparked a wave of reactions online, with fans affectionately captioning the clip with the phrase, "Kiska aana ho raha hai?" ("Whose coming is it?"), turning it into a trending meme. While it’s unclear whether the gesture was aimed at teammates, fans, or simply a spontaneous expression of joy, the internet has embraced the clip wholeheartedly. With his explosive batting and viral charisma, Jitesh Sharma has not only cemented his place in RCB’s lineup but also in the hearts of cricket lovers. As the tournament heats up heading into the qualifiers, Sharma’s form and flair could prove to be crucial for RCB’s title hopes.
