Chasing a modest target of 191, PBKS batters failed to chase down the target, as an inspired Krunal Pandya rattled the in-form middle order of Shreyas Iyer's men.
Speaking after the result, the PBKS skipper thanked the owners for their support, and vowed the fans to go one step ahead next year.
Here's What Shreyas Iyer Said
"Yes absolutely. Dejected to be honest but the way boys came up to the occasion was commendable. Credit to the entire management, support staff and each and every individual who participated in contributing for the team. Also credit to the owners who always supported us."
"(Restricting RCB to 190) Yes absolutely. Considering the game we played two nights back here against MI, I personally felt that 200 was a par score but they bowled brilliantly. Especially Krunal with the way he bowled tonight, carries so much experience and he was phenomenal tonight."
"Yes I am very proud of each and every individual who participated in the team. Lot of youngsters played their first season. The fearless nature they showed was simply amazing. Hats off to the entire management and all the players. The job is still half done as we want to win the trophy next year."
"There are plenty of positives to be honest. Many of the players stepped up for the team whenever required. We had plenty of youngsters and they have gained a lot of experience from this tournament. I am sure next year when they come here and play, they will perform better. We played some decent cricket in this tournament."
"It's time to greet the Runners-Up as PBKS Head Coach walks up to the podium and receives the award. Ponting is soon followed by Shreyas lyer who receives the Runner-Up's cheque. They collect it on behalf of the entire team!"
