Rajasthan
Royals (RR) has beaten Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) by six wickets in
their last match played on Saturday. Earlier they bundled out their opponent
for a paltry 70, which is the third lowest total in the history of the Indian
Premier League.
RCB’s
star-studded batting line-up collapsed very easily. Only three RCB bowlers
could reach double-digit figure. It was their lowest total in the Twenty20
league.
However,
Rajasthan Royals reached the target in 13 overs. Skipper Shane Watson became
the top scorer scoring 24 runs. Left-handed batsman Abhishek Nayar hit the
winning runs and led his team to get their second victory in the tournament
after four games.
For
RCB, Mitchell Starc got two wickets while Yuzvendra Chahal got a consolation
wicket respectively.
The
interesting fact is that RR were bowled out for 58, the lowest IPL score by any
team till now, by RCB in 2009. By winning this match, they could take revenge
of their defeat.
