The 65th match of the Indian Premier League (IPL) witnessed Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) facing the Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) at the Ekana Cricket Stadium in Lucknow on May 23 (Friday). It was a great chance for RCB to climb to the top of the table, but SRH spoiled their party with a brilliant display of teamwork.

It was a high-scoring encounter with 420 runs being scored in 39.5 overs and RCB lost the clash by a margin of 42 runs. With this loss, their net run-rate reduced to 0.255 and went below Punjab Kings. RCB, with this loss, have dropped to the third place in the table. They have won eight and lost four matches so far and one of their matches was abandoned due to rain.
RCB’s loss benefited PBKS as they are the prime contenders to finish in top two with a couple of their matches still left. They have played 12 matches so far and with eight wins and three losses, they are second with 17 points. Gujarat Titans continue to be on top of the points table with 18 points to their name.
Despite winning the match by a huge margin of 42 runs, SRH remained in eighth place with five wins from 13 matches so far. They have 11 points to show for their efforts and have already been eliminated from the IPL this season.
