Right then, another game in a blockbuster weekend of the 2025 IPL has come to an end and RCB have now climbed up to the 3rd spot in the points table with 8 points from 6 games. There's one more game to come before the weekend ends, and it is between the unbeaten Delhi Capitals and Mumbai Indians up in Delhi. DC have elected to bowl first in that game, and you can simply switch tabs and check our coverage of that one. Cheers!
STRATEGIC BREAK! RCB are racing away to the target as they just need 28 runs now in the last five overs. Virat Kohli is looking pretty good here as he is hitting boundaries for fun, and he will want to take his team home today. RR need a miracle from here to even make a comeback in this game. This inning has been pretty one-sided, where they dropped too many chances and now are on the verge of a loss in their home. RCB surely will want to finish as early as they can to boost their NRR.
RR have kept things tight in the last couple of overs but they have failed to pick more wickets here and RCB are slowly getting away in this game.
Riyan Parag comes into the attack now.
Devdutt Padikkal walks out to bat at number 3.
Strategic Break! Royal Challengers Bengaluru have dominated the Powerplay, with Phil Salt leading the charge and Virat Kohli playing second fiddle. However, the fielding has let Rajasthan Royals down as they have dropped as many as four chances, which is unacceptable when you are defending a par score. Their only hope now is if the spin twins of Maheesh Theekshana and Wanindu Hasaranga can pull off something special to get them back in this game. Also, Kumar Kartikeya to bowl after the break.
Rajasthan Royals use their Impact Player as Kumar Kartikeya comes in for Nitish Rana.
A change from both ends now as Maheesh Theekshana comes into the attack.

Who will bowl from the other end? It will be Tushar Deshpande.
