Match Over
RCB 250/3 (20 ov)
RCB won by 43 runs
250 on the board. RCB have set a massive target — the kind that changes body language in the dressing room. David's 70 off 25 (SR 280) was the innings that held everything together, with Padikkal (50 off 29) providing the support act. The bowling was a collective effort — Dube (1/30 in 2.1 ov), Overton (1/43 in 3 ov), Kamboj (1/52 in 4.2 ov) all contributed. CSK need 251 to win. And CSK are among the best chasers in the league — they will fancy this. The innings break will be full of numbers, plans, and second-guessing — but this game will be decided by nerve, not arithmetic.

Match Over
RCB 250/3 (20 ov)
RCB won by 43 runs
250 on the board. RCB have set a massive target — the kind that changes body language in the dressing room. David's 70 off 25 (SR 280) was the innings that held everything together, with Padikkal (50 off 29) providing the support act. The bowling was a collective effort — Dube (1/30 in 2.1 ov), Overton (1/43 in 3 ov), Kamboj (1/52 in 4.2 ov) all contributed. CSK need 251 to win. And CSK are among the best chasers in the league — they will fancy this. The innings break will be full of numbers, plans, and second-guessing — but this game will be decided by nerve, not arithmetic.
