In a gripping encounter, Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) triumphed over Mumbai Indians (MI) with a last-ball victory in the Indian Premier League. Krunal Pandya's remarkable innings of 73 runs off 46 balls, despite battling cramps, was pivotal in RCB's chase of 167 runs. His performance included four boundaries and five sixes, demonstrating his determination to secure a win for his team. Bhuvneshwar Kumar's exceptional bowling, taking four wickets for 23 runs, earned him the 'Player of the Match' award. RCB's chase was fraught with challenges, as they lost key players early, including Virat Kohli, who was dismissed for a second consecutive golden duck. However, Krunal's partnerships with Jacob Bethell and Jitesh Sharma steadied the innings. The match concluded dramatically with RCB needing 12 runs in the final over, which they secured thanks to a mix of extras and a crucial six from Bhuvneshwar. This victory places RCB at the top of the points table with 14 points, while MI's chances of playoff qualification have been dashed, leaving them in ninth place with only three wins.
