It was a wild, rain-shortened rollercoaster at Chinnaswamy, and the bowlers were the stars of the show! Punjab Kings’ bowling crew came out firing—Arshdeep, Chahal, Jansen, Brar… everyone chipped in and had Royal Challengers Bengaluru reeling at 43/7 before Tim David turned into Hulk mode. He thumped an unbeaten 50 off 26 balls, smacking three sixes in the final over to drag RCB to 95. Still, it felt like too little, too late.

Chasing 96 sounded easy, but Hazlewood and Bhuvneshwar weren’t going down quietly. PBKS stumbled early, but Nehal Wadhera showed nerves of steel. After a sketchy start, he flipped the switch—slamming boundaries left and right, including a cheeky six over fine leg and a sizzling drive through cover. With just a few runs needed, Marcus Stoinis wrapped it up in style, handing Punjab a cool five-wicket win and RCB yet another home heartbreak.
