LSG 146/10 (20 ov)
Royal Challengers Bengaluru won by 5 wickets
LSG fought, but 146 all out tells you the bowlers won this phase. What started with promise ended with a collapse. Marsh's 40 off 32 (SR 125) was the innings that held everything together, with Choudhary (39 off 28) providing the support act. The bowling was a collective effort — Salam (4/24 in 4 ov), Kumar (3/27 in 4.1 ov), Pandya (2/38 in 4.2 ov) all contributed. The death overs were the story — 6 wickets fell as LSG tried to accelerate, and what looked like 166+ became 146. RCB need 147 to win. The innings break will be full of numbers, plans, and second-guessing — but this game will be decided by nerve, not arithmetic.
2 wickets in the over! Just 7 off it. RCB seizing control.

Match Over
LSG 146/10 (20 ov)
Royal Challengers Bengaluru won by 5 wickets
LSG fought, but 146 all out tells you the bowlers won this phase. What started with promise ended with a collapse. Marsh's 40 off 32 (SR 125) was the innings that held everything together, with Choudhary (39 off 28) providing the support act. The bowling was a collective effort — Salam (4/24 in 4 ov), Kumar (3/27 in 4.1 ov), Pandya (2/38 in 4.2 ov) all contributed. The death overs were the story — 6 wickets fell as LSG tried to accelerate, and what looked like 166+ became 146. RCB need 147 to win. The innings break will be full of numbers, plans, and second-guessing — but this game will be decided by nerve, not arithmetic.
2 wickets in the over! Just 7 off it. RCB seizing control.
