| RCB | SRH |
| 203/4(15.4) | 201/9 |
Royal Challengers Bengaluru launched their title defence in style with a commanding six-wicket win over Sunrisers Hyderabad, powered first by Jacob Duffy’s superb 3 for 22 spell that dismantled the top order, and then by a dominant chase led by Devdutt Padikkal and Virat Kohli, whose aggressive 61 off 26 and unbeaten 69 made a 202 target look routine.
Despite Ishan Kishan’s explosive 80 and Aniket Verma’s late cameo pushing SRH past 200, RCB’s clinical execution with both ball and bat turned the game into a one-sided statement win.
