Rajasthan Royals have pulled off a sensational win, thanks to knocks from Vaibhav Suryavanshi and Dhruv Jurel, where the former ensured the tide remained in his team's pocket. Josh Hazlewood and Krunal Pandya picked wickets to put RR under pressure, but Jurel and Ravindra Jadeja guided them past the finish line. 

10 Apr, 23:33 (IST)

FIFTY! Dhruv Jurel has hit a half-century in 25 balls, which might seem slow in comparison to Vaibhav Suryavanshi, but a crucial knock nonetheless. Despite wickets falling at the other end, Jurel kept one end secured and managed to bring the side to the brink of a win.

OUT! RCB have made a comeback in the contest, claiming wickets in back-to-back overs as Josh Hazlewood dismisses captain Riyan Parag. Parag played an irresponsible shot, giving his wicket away at long-on. 

10 Apr, 23:10 (IST)

OUT! Krunal Pandya gets another wicket as Shimron Hetmyer plays an absolutely mindless shot. Hetmyer guided the ball straight to the short third man fielder off a short ball. 

10 Apr, 23:08 (IST)

OUT! Krunal Pandya gets RCB a much-needed breakthrough as Vaibhav Suryavanshi departs for 78. Suryavanshi flat bats the ball towards long-on, mis-hitting a short ball by Krunal Pandya. 

10 Apr, 23:05 (IST)

RCB have been completely blown away by Vaibhai Suryavanshi and Dhruv Jurel, with the duo adding 100 off 34 balls. Suryavanshi scored a fifty off 15, and is nearing a century, while Jurel himself is on the brink of a fifty. 

10 Apr, 22:50 (IST)

FIFTY! Vaibhav Suryavanshi has reached his half-century in merely 15-balls, hitting eight fours and four sixes. This is the second joint-fastest half-century for RR in IPL history.

10 Apr, 22:46 (IST)

RR have reached fifty in just the fourth over, thanks to Vaibhai Suryavanshi, scoring 41 off 13 balls. The fall of Yashasvi Jaiswal's wicket did not deter Suryavanshi one bit, taking Josh Hazlewood to the cleaners in his second over. 

10 Apr, 22:36 (IST)

OUT! Josh Hazlewood has the final laugh, as Yashasvi Jaiswal falls for 13. Jaiswal went for the cut shot, but the ball was too close to the body, and the batter edged one straight to the keeper. As expected, RR openers Vaibhav Suryavanshi and Yashasvi Jaiswal did come out all guns blazing. 

10 Apr, 22:16 (IST)

Venkatesh Iyer has come good for RCB as their impact sub, scoring 29 off 15, lifting his team past the 200-run mark. Rajat Patidar and Romario Shepherd played their part with 63 and 22, respectively, after the top and middle-order collapsed to 94 for 6.
