So, MS Dhoni’s Chennai Super Kings go top of the table with that morale-boosting victory over South Indian rivals RCB, and seems like the Yellow Brigade have found their rythm once again after a disappointing last season. Next up, Delhi Capitals take on Sunrisers Hyderabad in Match 20 of the tournament. with the contest starting shortly So, do make sure to switch tabs and follow that game. 

Until then, it’s goodbye!

THAT’s THAT! CSK beat RCB by 69 runs! Spinners did the trick for CSK, with Jadeja and Tahir sharing five wickets between then, and despite Kohli and Padikkal taking them off to a confident start, it wasn’t meant to be for Bangalore. This defeat thus ended Bangalore’s unbeaten honeymoon in the IPL, meaning every team in the tournament have lost at least a game.

After 20 overs,Royal Challengers Bangalore 122/9 ( Yuzvendra Chahal 8 , Mohammed Siraj 12)

Dwayne Bravo comes back to provide the finishing touch. Siraj brings up a six with a shot lofted over midwicket, but that’s obviously too little too late. 11 runs come off it, and CSK end RCB’s unbeaten run by clinching a 69-run win.

Sam Curran comes in to replace Bravo. Chahal collects a couple of runs towards deep backward point. In the last ball, Siraj is given out for a catch but he reviews. There was a slight noise heard on edge of the bat, but UltraEdge confirms nothing of the sort. Decision changed, and Siraj survives.

Right. Shardul Thakur is back for his penultimate over. Can he see the match off this over? Anyway, he starts off with three dots before conceding a single to Chahal, who whipped it behind square leg. Just one run off it.

Dwayne Bravo into the attack. Jamieson did smash him for a six over long-on, only to depart a few balls later courtesy a direct hit from Tahir. Eight runs and a wicket as umpires call for strategic time-out.

After 14 overs,Royal Challengers Bangalore 94/8 ( Kyle Jamieson 8 , Yuzvendra Chahal 0)

Imran Tahir is back, and strikes again, by getting rid of Navdeep Saini. If it’s to anyone’s relief, Yuzvendra Chahal survives an lbw scare later in the over. Tahir appeals for that lbw, umpire deems it not out and Dhoni reluctantly reviews. However, the review is later unsuccessful.  Just one run off it.

Jadeja is on fire at the moment. He earns a wicket maiden following the dismissal of big man AB de Villiers. RCB are running out of batsmen to save this contest. Harshal Patel joins Jamieson.

More misery for RCB as spin seems to do the talking for CSK. Jadeja strikes again with the wicket of Glenn Maxwell, who looks to slog sweep but misses. The ball eventually hits the stumps and Maxi is out. This followed by the time-out. Dan Christian is the new batsman after the break, and joins de Villiers. Just six off it.

Well, well, well. The burden of this run chase has fallen to the duo of Glenn Maxwell and AB de Villiers. Washington Sundar is the latest victim to fall, with Ravindra Jadeja claiming the wicket. There’s a stumping check against De Villiers but the South African seems to have made his ground. Just three runs off it.

Sam Curran is back. He is hammered for back-to-back fours from Glenn Maxwell who looks in good touch early on. There’s a change in bat for Maxwell in the midst of the over. End of the powerplay as 11 runs come off the sixth over.

IPL 2021, Live Cricket Score, Chennai Super Kings (CSK) vs Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB): THAT’s THAT! CSK beat RCB by 69 runs! Spinners did the trick for CSK, with Jadeja and Tahir sharing five wickets between then, and despite Kohli and Padikkal taking them off to a confident start, it wasn’t meant to be for Bangalore. This defeat thus ended Bangalore’s unbeaten honeymoon in the IPL, meaning every team in the tournament have lost at least a game. Preview: Having got to their best-ever start in the Indian Premier League (IPL) with four consecutive wins, an unbeaten Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB), led by Virat Kohli, lock horns with MS Dhoni’s Chennai Super Kings (CSK) in Match 19 of IPL 2021 at Mumbai’s Wankhede Stadium in the first of the double-header on Sunday. Chasing 178 against Rajasthan Royals (RR) on Thursday, Devdutt Padikkal notched up his maiden IPL century with an unbeaten 101 off just 52 balls as he and Virat Kohli (72 off 47) led the team’s comfortable chase to win by 10 wickets and 21 balls to spare. That win took RCB back to top spot in the IPL standings with eight points, while CSK are right behind them in second with six points. So, expect a tight contest on the cards. CSK, meanwhile, have recovered well after their opening loss to Delhi Capitals (DC), registering three consecutive wins — against Punjab Kings, Rajasthan Royals, and Kolkata Knight Riders. Faf du Plessis leads the team’s batting charts with 164 runs (one fifty), while Deepak Chahar is their leading wicket-taker, with eight scalps. Meanwhile, for RCB, Harshal Patel has been their go-to death bowler and he in fact leads the Purple Cap standings with 12 wickets. So, it will be interesting to see how CSK deal with him in the final overs. Glenn Maxwell, who has been in a positive form, will continue to be RCB’s X-factor in the middle-order and all eyes will be on how he deals with the likes of Chahar and Shardul Thakur. In terms of team news, for RCB, Daniel Sams has joined the bio-bubble after recovering from COVID-19, while for CSK, Jason Behrendorff, who has come in as a replacement for Josh Hazlewood, is currently undergoing mandatory quarantine after arriving in the country on 18 April. It will be interesting to see if Sams, in fact, would be given a game, ahead of Australia’s Kane Richardson. Squads: Chennai Super Kings: Mahendra Singh Dhoni (c & wk), Suresh Raina, Ambati Rayudu, KM Asif, Deepak Chahar, Dwayne Bravo, Faf du Plessis, Imran Tahir, N Jagadeesan, Karn Sharma, Lungi Ngidi, Mitchell Santner, Ravindra Jadeja, Ruturaj Gaikwad, Shardul Thakur, Sam Curran, R Sai Kishore, Moeen Ali, K Gowtham, Cheteshwar Pujra, Harishankar Reddy, Bhagath Varma, C Hari Nishaanth. Royal Challengers Bangalore: Virat Kohli (C), AB de Villiers (W), Adam Zampa, Devdutt Padikkal, Kane Richardson, Mohammed Siraj, Navdeep Saini, Pavan Deshpande, Shahbaz Ahmed, M S Washington Sundar, Yuzvendra Chahal, Daniel Sams, Harshal Patel, Glenn Maxwell, Sachin Baby, Rajat Patidar, Mohammed Azharuddeen, Kyle Jamieson, Dan Christian, Suyash Prabhudessai, K S Bharat, Finn Allen.
