RCB win by 18 runs
Royal Challengers Bangalore beat the Lucknow Super Giants by 18 runs as LSG finish at runs after 20 overs. Skipper KL Rahul 30 (24) and Krunal Pandya 42 (28) tried their best to chase the heavy target of 182 runs but the middle-order was disappointing. For RCB, Skipper Faf du Plessis's tremendous 96 (64) got them in a comfortable position after the first innings. Great effort by the RCB bowling and batting department.
