RCB's bowlers did well to pull it back a little, taking important wickets. One of the standout performers was Harshal Patel, whose two wickets meant he tied for most wickets in a season with Bravo on 32. Photo by Deepak Malik / Sportzpics for IPL
Yuzvendra Chahal and Mohammed Siraj also picked up a couple of wickets apiece, and for a while, it looked like RCB might have done enough to restrict KKR. Photo by Rahul Gulati / Sportzpics for IPL
