  • In a high-stakes encounter that delivered everything from towering sixes to a nerve-wracking finish, Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) edged past Chennai Super Kings (CSK) in a pulsating last-over thriller in the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025. RCB posted a daunting total of 213/5, powered by a clinical top-order performance. Virat Kohli led the charge with a fluent 62, while young sensation Jacob Bethell impressed with a brisk 55.
