Devdutt Padikkal also contributed a solid 37 off 22 balls, giving RCB a challenging total to defend.

MI’s Early Struggles

At the 11.2-over mark, MI is at 92/3, needing 130 runs from 53 balls to win. The game is still up for grabs, with Suryakumar Yadav and Tilak Varma at the crease, but RCB’s strong total has put MI in a tough spot.
