RCB Knock CSK Out Of IPL 2024
RCB set a formidable target of 219 runs against CSK in their must-win match, with key contributions from skipper Faf du Plessis (54), Virat Kohli (47), Rajat Patidar (41 off 23) and impactful cameos from Dinesh Karthik (14 off 6) and Glenn Maxwell (16 off 5). Despite a rain interruption, their innings maintained momentum. CSK needed 201 runs to qualify for the playoffs but could only manage 191-7. Dhoni briefly brought CSK close by reducing the equation to 17 runs needed from five balls, but his dismissal on the next ball allowed Yash Dayal to secure a memorable victory for RCB in the last over.
It was a dream comeback for RCB to reach the IPL 2024 playoffs as they had lost seven out of their first eight matches in the IPL 2024. However, they rebounded impressively, winning the next six games in a row.
