On Sunday 12 May, Royal Challengers Bengaluru defeated Delhi Capitals at the M Chinnaswamy Stadium. The win keeps RCB in the hunt for a place in the 2024 Indian Premier League play-offs. The Royal Challengers Bengaluru players were ecstatic after bowling out DC for just 140 runs in their 188-run reply. The cameras turned to Anushka Sharma and Virat Kohli as the team celebrated their victory.
After the team's victory, the famous couple looked incredibly relieved as RCB staged an incredible comeback in the IPL 2024. "I told you we would turn this ship around," Virat Kohli gestured to someone on the ground. Cameron Green's all-round performance proved crucial to the Bengaluru side's victory. Green was also outstanding in the field.
RCB defeated DC by 47 runs on Sunday to extend their winning run and keep their play-off dreams alive. The win moved RCB up to fifth place on the points table, a feat that seemed unreal given their previous struggles in the competition. A fifty from Rajat Patidar and solid bowling from the RCB bowlers saw the hosts win in dominating fashion.
RCB will host CSK in their final league match on 18 May. If RCB wins by a margin of 18 runs or more, their net run rate (NRR) will be higher than CSK's, which will help them secure a place in the play-offs.
