Kings XI Punjab recorded the second-lowest total of the season as they were knocked down for just 88 runs by the Royal Challengers. It is to be noted that it is a must-win the game for both the teams to make it to playoffs.
Though Rahul and Gayle batted cautiously in the initial overs, they fell in quick succession to Umesh Yadav. The middle order failed yet again as Mayank, Karun and Finch weren”t able to score big.
Chahal knocked down Stoinis by his unplayable delivery and buried the hopes of further progress in the Kings” innings.
Bangalore exhibited a wonderful display of their fielding as they accounted for three runouts. Umesh starred with the ball picking three wickets for the second time against Punjab this season. Grandhomme, Chahal, Siraj and Moeen picked up a wicket each.
Royal Challengers will be certainly looking forward to a successful chase in minimum overs to boost their net run rate.
Twitter brutally trolled Punjab for their awful display of batting and hauled RCB bowlers for their classy attack

#KXIP just got exposed for over relying on KL Rahul for their runs throughout the tournament. Ironically, it came against #RCB who mainly rely on Virat Kohli and AB Devilliers for their scoring. #KXIPvRCB #IPL2018

KXIP has pretty much average bowling line up, the ground is very small and also they rely heavily on Gayle-Rahul. If RCB manage to restrict them around 180, they should be winning.

You can make fun of RCB's bowling but this year their bowling is seriously good. This same KXIP team made 214 while chasing 246 in previous game at the same ground #KXIPvRCB

Dear #RCB, you’re like the girl who breaks up with you on New Years but gives you a missed call on Valentines Day. #keepinghopealive #stillloveyou #thishurts @RCBTweets #KXIPvRCB

Looking at the way they have been batting, what was the harm in playing @YUVSTRONG12 ? Punjab has become just a 2-batsmen team now #KXIPvRCB
