RCB Avenged Defeat With A Crushing Win

Coming to the match, RCB bowlers were at their best in Mullanpur and restricted the home side to 157 runs in Mullanpur. Despite a good start by Prabhsimran Singh and Priyansh Arya, a batting collapse didn't help their cause. Shreyas Iyer failed once again, while Nehal Wadhera also went back in quick succession. Marco Jansen and Shashank Singh did their part, but it wasn't enough for the side.

It was Virat who enthralled the spectators with yet another superlative display. The 36 year old has now scored 322 runs in 8 matches and he will have to be at his best if RCB are to lift their maiden IPL title. Virat controlled the proceedings from the start and smashed 5 fours in the powerplay to provide the bedrock for a solid chase.

The win leaves RCB in the 3rd position with 10 points while PBKS remain in the 4th position with the same number of points. Home form has been a concern for RCB as they have lost all three matches, while this was their 5th away win in IPL 2025. They will next host the Rajasthan Royals on April 24.
