Royal Challengers Bangalore players leave the field after their win in the Indian Premier League cricket match against Rajasthan Royals in Bengaluru, India, Sunday, April 23, 2023. (AP Photo/Aijaz Rahi) IPL 2023 highlights, RCB vs RR Scorecard Updates: Royal Challengers Bangalore defeated Rajasthan Royals by seven runs in an Indian Premier League match. Glenn Maxwell hammered 77 off 44 balls while Faf du Plessis contributed 62 off 39 balls to guide RCB to a par score of 189 for nine after being sent in to bat. Stand-in skipper Virat Kohli (0) was adjudged leg-before to Trent Boult in first over but Du Plessis and Maxwell added 127 for the third wicket before RCB lost momentum towards the end. Boult finished with 2 for 41 but best bowler on view for RR was Yuzvendra Chahal (1/28). In his entire spell, Chahal conceded only one six and not a single boundary. Chasing, RR were on course after the early dismissal of Jos Buttler, with Yashasvi Jaiswal and It was a rollercoaster of a final over. Plenty happened in it but one thing which left many scratching their head is Ashwin taking the bulk of the strike in the last over instead of Jurell and Holder being not sent at the end. The first 10 overs went quite smoothly for the Royals however, in the next 10 they completely lost the momentum and could not get it back. Hetmyar would be looking back at his knock at that stage of the game and wondering what he could have done better. RCB bowlers have bowled decently on a slow surface an...

The Royals lost five wickets for 25 runs in the powerplay with Parnell taking two, including that of Jos Buttler (0) and captain Sanju Samson (4). But it was Siraj, who had opened the floodgates by getting the wicket of in-form Yashasvi Jaiswal (0). The youngster failed to control his shot and offered a simple catch to Virat Kohli at mid-off in the second ball of the RR run chase. RR’s abject batting in a crucial league game pushed them into a tight corner with 12 points and only a game in hand. It was a rare instance as both RR openers got out for ducks as Buttler departed in the next over off a short and wide delivery off Parnell. Two balls later, Samson was out as he committed for a shot too early and the ball ballooned up high in the air for Anuj Rawat to take a well-judged catch. Three wickets down for 11 runs after two overs, the Royals survived the next two overs before Devdutt Padikkal, who came in as 'Impact Player' in place of Yuzvendra Chahal, was dismissed for four off Bracewell as Royals' procession to the dressing room continued. Root's first Hetmyer was the only batter who gave a fight and he hit three consecutive sixes off Karn Sharma in the eighth over but finally got dismissed in the 10th over off the bowling of Glenn Maxwell. Adam Zampa and KM Asif decided not to stretch Royals misery by getting out in the space of three balls in the 11th over in one of the most one-sided matches of the IPL. Earlier, captain Faf du Plessis and Maxwell struck half-centuri...

Terrific win for RCB. RR was cruising at one point, with Jaiswal and Padikkal going strong. But once they fell, RCB tightened the screws through Hasaranga and Harshal. RCB’s fielding was electric and it went a long way in condemning RR to its second consecutive defeat. RCB’s batting was spearheaded by Faf and Maxi, who made the most of the conditions after being asked to bat. That would be all from our side. Thanks for joining us. • Harshal Patel has 20 to defend in the final over. Ashwin looked like he was undone by change of pace but he has somehow managed to hit it over the cordon for four. Ashwin pinches 2 off the next ball. 14 off 4 but Jurel is off strike. Ashwin hits the next ball for four. 10 off 3 now. Ashwin has holed out next ball! 10 off 2 now with the new man on strike. Abdul Basith is the Impact Player. He can only take a single....

17.3 toGJ Maxwell, cleans him up, brilliant by Sandeep! Another top yorker on middle and leg stump. Maxwell tries to be funky and tries to reverse-sweep it away but the ball is just too good. It sneaks underneath his bat and he hears the death rattle soon after. Take nothing away from this knock, though - it has kept RCB afloat in this contest!. 137/5 15.3 toKD Karthik, huge appeal, not given! Length delivery on middle and leg stump that pitches and skids through. Karthik is caught on the crease and plays all over it as the ball pins him on the front pad. The umpire says no but RR want to have another look! No bat involved, and Ball Tracking shows that the ball would have thundered into leg stump! RR go bang-bang, and RCB suddenly in a spot of bother now!. 120/4 6.6 toV Kohli, Asif takes out Kohli! Slower delivery on a length on middle and off stump. Kohli is completely flummoxed by it and after advancing, tries to reach out in front of his body. The ball spoons up in the air. Jaiswal calls early from extra cover and completes the catch! Asif is delighted, and Kohli departs for a 19-ball 18!. 50/1 14.5 toF du Plessis, Asif takes out another big fish! Off-pace delivery on a full length just outside off stump. du Plessis tries to force it past extra cover but does not quite get the timing he is after. He neither gets it past Jaiswal, nor gets it over him. Offers a simple catch off the toe-end, and this is a massive, massive moment in the game!. 119/2 c Mohammed Siraj b Brace...
