INDIAN PREMIER LEAGUE 2023
(a) Royal Challengers Bangalore vs Rajasthan Royals, 32nd Match
Dhruv Jurel’s cameo in vain as RCB beat Rajasthan Royals by 7 runs. Requring 190 to win, Rajasthan lost their star opener Jos Buttler for 0 but a solid hand by Devdutt Padikkal and Yashasvi Jaiswal got their innings back on track. The pair added 98 runs for the second wicket, before Padikkal fell for 52(34) against David Willey. Yashasvi 47(37) and Sanju Samson 22(15) were also removed shortly. Shimron Hetmyer failed to find the big hits and was run-out for 3(9), however, a late cameo by Dhruv Jurel kept Rajasthan in hunt. With 20 required in the final over, Jurely only got to face the final delivery, when the match was already out of RR’s hand as they managed to add 182/6 in 20 overs. Earlier, Rajasthan bowlers produced a tremendous fightback after being ripped apart by Faf du Plessis and Glenn Maxwell. Both the batters smashed blistering half-centuries as RCB piled a challenging 189/9 in 20 overs.

Chennai Super Kings defeated Kolkata Knight Riders by 49 runs in an Indian Premier League match here on Sunday. Devon Conway, Shivam Dube and Ajinkya Rahane slammed quick half-centuries to guide CSK to an imposing 235 for four after being asked to bat. Dube (50 off 21) and Rahane (71 not out off 29) kept up the scoring rate, stitching 85 runs off just 32 balls to keep CSK’s scoring rate high.

Jason Roy made a quickfire 26-ball 61, while Rinku Singh scored an unbeaten 33-ball 53 but it was not enough to chase down the mammoth target. Maheesh Theekshana (2/32) and Tushar Deshpande (2/43) picked up two wickets each for CSK.
