Royal Challengers Bengaluru cruised to their second consecutive IPL final, their fifth in all, with a 92-run demolition of Gujarat Titans in Dharamsala. After Rajat Patidar’s unbeaten 93 set up RCB’s mammoth total of 254, the pacers wreaked havoc and reduced GT to rubble in the Powerplay, turning this Qualifier 1 clash into a one-sided encounter, notwithstanding Rahul Tewatia’s resistance with the bat.
Brief Scores: Royal Challengers Bengaluru 254/5 in 20 overs [Rajat Patidar 93* (33), Virat Kohli 43 (25), Krunal Pandya 43 (28); Jason Holder 2-39] beat Gujarat Titans 162 all out in 19.3 overs [Rahul Tewatia 68 (43), Jos Buttler 29 (11); Jacob Duffy 3-39, Rasikh Salam Dar 2-24, Bhuvneshwar Kumar 2-28] by 92 runs.
