nineteenth season of Indian Premier League (IPL) The title match played between Royal Challengers Bangalore and Gujarat Titans at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad has reached its final stage. While talks of a grand event are up in the air, the game on Sunday, May 31 could be an emotional journey for some cricketers, as it will probably be the last time they step on the field.
While the obvious senior name that comes to mind is that of legendary RCB batsman Virat Kohli, a few others may also bid goodbye to IPL cricket, making it the right time to say goodbye to their respective careers in the marquee T20 tournament, where they have been entertaining fans for close to a few decades.
Here are 3 legendary players who may play their last IPL final

There is no doubt about this jos buttler GT is one of the most important cogs in the batting line-up. For the last two seasons, Buttler has handled the responsibility at the top of the order for the Gujarat-based franchise, apart from being one of the most renowned foreign opening players in the league. With seven centuries to his name, Buttler also has 4627 runs in 137 IPL matches at an average of 39.88.
The experienced English wicketkeeper-batsman will turn 36 in a few months and Buttler will want to give himself some rest until the 2027 season. His form in T20 cricket has not been good in the last twelve months, due to which he had to step down from the captaincy of England in the shortest format. If GT wins the trophy, Buttler may find it the right time to retire from the league.
