Put in to bat first, RCB got off to a quick start but lost both their openers before the tenth over. A middle-overs recovery was constructed by Cameron Green and Rajat Patidar, but they regularly lost wickets before eventually scoring 172/8 in their 20 overs.
In reply, RR chased down the score with an over to spare. Despite some nervy moments towards the end, they were largely in control of the game as contributions from Yashasvi Jaiswal (45), Riyan Parag (36) and Shimron Hetmyer (26) took them over the line.

The result means that RR move on to play SRH in Qualifier 2 in Chennai on Friday, whereas RCB's season is over. On social media, rival fans had a laugh at RCB's expense, particularly those of CSK who were on the receiving end when RCB knocked their team out to qualify last Saturday.
