Right then, Royal Challengers Bengaluru are up and running at home and they now become the third team to get to 12 points, joining GT and DC, who are above them due to a superior Net Run Rate. Next up, it is a clash for survival in IPL 2025 as Chennai Super Kings welcome Sunrisers Hyderabad in a crucial four-pointer that could send one team into almost certain elimination and the winning side can stay afloat and still have an outside chance of making the top four. That game will be played at the M.A. Chidambaram Stadium on Friday, 25 April and will begin at 7.30 pm IST (2 pm GMT). You can join us a lot sooner for the build-up as well. Cheers!
Fazalhaq Farooqi is the last batter in for RR.
Tushar Deshpande is in next.
17 needed off the final over. Yash Dayal to bowl it? Or will we see Romario Shepherd? It should be Dayal and it is him. Can he keep his cool and see his side home? Or will there be flashbacks from a couple of seasons ago? Let's find out...
Wanindu Hasaranga walks out to face the hat-trick ball.
Jofra Archer walks out to bat now.
Shubham Dubey is the new batter in.
Is that out? A very risky second run attempted by Shimron Hetmyer and the throw from Phil Salt comes in at the keeper's end. Jitesh Sharma whips off the bails as Hetmyer dives in. It is sent upstairs and replays quickly show that Hetmyer was well in. NOT OUT!
Strategic Break! With 66 runs needed off 36 balls, this contest is perfectly poised for a thrilling finish! Rajasthan Royals have done the hard yards to build a solid platform in this chase, but a couple of quick wickets have thrown a bit of a curveball into the mix. There's still firepower left in the tank for RR, and on a surface like this, chasing down this remaining target is well within reach if they keep their nerves. But credit to RCB - they’ve pulled things back brilliantly in the last few overs, tightening lines and building pressure. One more wicket here, and the momentum could swing hard in RCB’s favour. It's all about handling the pressure from here on. Seems like we’re in for a nail-biting finish.
Shimron Hetmyer walks in at number 6 for Rajasthan Royals.
There is a change of ball for Royal Challengers Bengaluru!
Dhruv Jurel is the next batter.
Halt! There is a bit of a delay and the umpire seems to be in conversation with someone on the walkie-talkie. It seems like there was an incident in the last ball of the previous over. Replays show that Suyash Sharma picked up the ball with his cap. Thankfully for him, the ball was dead, otherwise that could have been 5 penalty runs. Anyway, Krunal Pandya is finally given the green light to start his spell.
Strategic Break! This has been a frenetic chase so far and Rajasthan Royals have gone hard at the RCB bowlers throughout the first 8 overs. It hasn't always been pretty hitting but RR are well above the required rate and have wickets in hand as well. The RCB bowlers have been a bit unlucky with quite a few edges going to the fence but they need to pick up wickets, or else, this game could be over before they know it.
RCB use their Impact sub to bring on Suyash Sharma in place of Devdutt Padikkal. Also, Romario Shepherd comes into the attack now.
The RR skipper, Riyan Parag is in next.
Nitish Rana walks in at number 3 for Rajasthan Royals.
Josh Hazlewood comes in as the first bowling change for RCB!
Yash Dayal to share the attack from the other end.
