Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) took on Mumbai Indians (MI) in the 10th game of Indian Premier League (IPL) 2020 at the Dubai International Cricket Stadium on Monday (September 28).

Asked to bat first, RCB piled up 201/3 in their stipulated 20 overs on the back of fabulous half-centuries from AB de Villiers (55* off 24 balls), Aaron Finch (52 off 35 balls) and Devdutt Padikkal (54 off 40 balls). All-rounder Shivam Dube also played a valuable cameo of 10-ball 27*.

For MI, Rahul Chahar (1-31) and Trent Boult (2-34) were the pick of the bowlers while others were taken to the cleaners.

Chasing the target, the defending champions were reeling at 78/4 before Ishan Kishan (99 off 58 balls) and Kieron Pollard (60 off 24 balls) produced jaw-dropping innings to tie the match. The duo shared a 119-run stand in just 51 deliveries to turn the game on its head.

In the Super-Over, Navdeep Saini bowled brilliantly for RCB as he conceded only 7 runs in it and took the prized scalp of Pollard in the fifth delivery. Hardik Pandya and Rohit Sharma were the other two batsmen for MI.

Needing 8 to win the one-over eliminator, Virat Kohli and AB de Villiers came to the crease for RCB while Jasprit Bumrah was given the ball by MI.

Only 2 runs were scored off the first 3 deliveries, leaving 6 runs to win the final 3 balls. De Villiers hit the fourth ball for a boundary and followed it with a single while Kohli flicks the last ball for a four to ensure RCB’s nail-biting victory.

Cricket experts were left speechless as the 13th edition of IPL produced another Super-Over finish.
