The IPL match, held at the Chinnaswamy stadium in Bengaluru was a virtual knockout game between the two teams to enter the playoff. RCB handed a 27-run defeat to the CSK leaving all the Dhoni fans stunned.
RCB captain stars to lift their side to the playoffs:
RCB skipper Faf du Plessis scored an invaluable half-century that was instrumental in a steep total of 218 in 20 overs. Later, the veteran South African took two oustanding catches as the Super Kings managed only 191 on the board.
The Super Kings did not start their run-chase well in the first place, notably losing Ruturaj Gaikwad in the first ball of the innings. Rachin Ravindra was the only top-order batter to make a notable score, hammering 61, but his run-out took away their momentum completely. Despite the presence of MS Dhoni and Ravindra Jadeja, the Yellow Army were unsuccessful in getting the required 17 runs in the final over to qualify for the playoffs.
