After batting first, the hosts scored 218/5, and CSK needed to score at least 201 runs to stay in fourth position.

The only thing on everyone’s mind was the total that CSK needed to reach in order to advance to the playoffs.

In order to qualify, CSK needed to score 17 runs in the final over. The bowler was Yash Dayal, and Dhoni struck a six off the opening ball to cut the margin to 11 needed off five. But he was hit by the very next ball, and Dayal remained composed to allow only another run in the remainder of the over. As a result, RCB won six straight games and advanced to the playoffs.
Earlier, Gaikwad won the toss and elected to bowl. Rain pulled the players off the field after Virat Kohli and Faf du Plessis hammered 31 runs in three overs. Upon restarting, RCB did not care if they lost wickets or not; they were really impressive.
When the visitors put spinners at them to take advantage of the situation, CSK were turned down by Kohli and Du Plessis, and later by Rajat Patidar and Cameron Green. After Du Plessis and the RCB’s most experienced batsmen built up a partnership of 78 runs in 58 balls, they shared a 35-run stand in 20 balls. Then, in just 28 balls, Patidar and Green put on a scorching 71-run stand.
