Why did GT choose to bat first after winning the toss? Sunil Gavaskar did say that it was a bad idea. Early on GT was struggling to even hit the ball but Hardik Pandya's agressive 62 runs let them to a respectable score of 168. I never expected RCB to chase that target but Kohli's impressive knock of 73 helped RCB to win the match. I hope he has regain his lost form this time. With this win RCB are still in contention for the playoffs.

RCB win over GT took them to the 4th place on the points table with 16 points with NRR -0.253 and have hopes for the playoffs alive after this victory. Virat Kohli and Faf du Plessis presented the team with the perfect start.
Last but not the least, Glenn Maxwell with 5 fours and 2 sixes took the team over the finishing line and help RCB win the match with 8 wickets in hand and 10 balls in spare.

I wouldn’t have lost sleep if RCB had crashed out of the playoffs, but seeing them play so well yesterday now I want them to qualify and continue performing like they did yesterday. Furthermore I hope that you’ll are right and this knock helps Kohli bounce back, but if he continues to fail post this knock then he should really take a break from the game.

I think Virat Kohli is going to try his hardest to improve his performance because I see this IPL as the only chance of him being in the regular Indian squad in the upcoming World Cup. If he plays well, it will have his confidence and he might also be proved to be e playing very well in the world cup also. Now the question is how RCB is going to play from now on. Somehow I cannot still trust them because I believe GT did not take this match too seriously. because they have already qualified for the next stage.

Good Luck

Royal Challengers keeps the playoff hope alive with the win against Gujarat Titans by 8 wickets and 8 balls left. In today's match RCB players contributed good, and it was possible to see their natural game than playing under pressure. However the match of Rajasthan Royals vs Mumbai Indians result is gonna decide who's gonna get into playoff, because RR have got better run rate than Royal Challengers Bangalore.

Outstanding performance from the players of Royal Challengers Bangalore. They have played so well and managed to win against Gujrat Titans. They have chance to get into playoff but DC has also chance here. NRR of DC is good compare to RCB. I think RR is in the safe position till now to qualify for playoff.

Outstanding performance from Royal Challengers Bangalore. Kohli played a great innings. On the other side as usual Hardik Pandya took the responsibility which helped the team reach 168 runs losing 5 wickets. It looks like Gujarat Titans is facing some difficulty when batting first and plays with much confidence while chasing targets.

Now there is only one match remaining in the group phase, that will have an impact on deciding who will progress to the next round. Gujarat, Lucknow and Rajasthan have secured their qualification spot. Now it is a fight between RCB and DC for the final slot. Tomorrow there is a match between Mumbai and Delhi Capitals, and in case the latter manages to win this match they will proceed to the playoffs. If Mumbai wins, then it will be RCB who will figure as the 4th team that qualifies to the next round. Today's match (RR vs CSK) is more or less irrelevant.

As RCB are still in the race, there is a reasonable chance of reaching the next round. They now need the Mumbai Indians to beat the Delhi Capitals, due to their negative Net Run Rate. DC will advance to the play-offs if they win, otherwise they will be eliminated. It's that simple, unless something miraculous happens.

What a game from Lucknow Super Giants and Kolkata Knight Riders. LSG scored 210 runs without losing a wicket. KKR played marvelous innings, but the middle order game from Andre Russell made mistake increasing the required run rate. Finally Rinku played the best and turned the game towards them. It was bad luck for KKR, because Rinku lost the wicket to the bowling of Stonis and caught by Lewis which is an unexpected one. Losing after a hard fight on a small margin is really sad.

No one expected such close game today. I thought Kolkata will loss the match by at least 20 runs. Lucknow had set a big target. de Kock has played a magnificent innings for LSG. Kolkata is eliminated now. Lewis deserve the credit for this victory of Lucknow. He took a great catch of Rinku Singh in the last over. KKR would have won the match if he missed that difficult catch.

Absolutely amazing match between KKR and LSG. I thought also that KKR would lose the match against LSG because total run was high to chase. But it was so close to win the natch for KKR. Both teams played very well. de Kock you're beauty, A great innings from de Kock.

Very beautiful and unexpected win by KKR - never had imagined that they will chase the run this beautifully. The target given by LSG was good but on the other side KKR were in high moral today and they snatched the match form LSG. Great match - great victory~

Bangalore's performance in today's match was very good. I would say every player on the team contributed to the team's victory. The bowlers performed well. In just 168 runs, they managed to stop the Gujarat team. The performance of the top three batsmen in the top order was outstanding. Kohli in particular is back in form. He has collected 73 runs. Maxwell made 40 off just 18 balls. Above all, thanks to the contribution of every player in the team, Bangalore easily won today.

The match is completely under the control of Bangalore. Bangalore lost their first wicket in 14.3 overs. They scored 115 runs in the first wicket partnership. They collected 121 runs in 15 overs. Only 48 runs from 30 balls are needed to win. Kohli is still at the crease with 6 runs scored. At the same time Glenn Maxwell is a very experienced player.

Finally Virat Kohli has played a great innings today and it has kept their hope alive for the playoff round. All other teams are eliminated now except Delhi Capitals. Delhi still have the chance to qualify for the playoff round. They will qualify if they win the next match against Mumbai.

Rajasthan has only one match left, which is against Chennai. Mumbai will play against Delhi. Rajasthan has the highest chance to qualify among those 3 teams (Rajasthan, Bangalore & Delhi). Delhi has better Nrr, they will get the 4th rank if they win their next match. In that case, Bangalore will be eliminated. I think you have mixed up the fixture.

Titans vs Royal Challengers
I don't think Gujarat Titans are going to take this match seriously because they have already qualified for the next stage and there is nothing to prove for them in this match. On the other hand, RCB needs to win really big otherwise they will be behind in terms of net run rate.
At first, I thought that RCB is going to win this match even though they might not win by a big difference but Gujarat Titans have won the toss and decided to bat and that certainly got me thinking because I believe that team that is going to bat first has the advantage.

GT VS RCB
GT at first place with 20 points in the point table. RCB needs to win today’s match to stay in the playoffs. Unfortunately, the strong openers of Gujarat Titans lost early. GT is now 21-1 after 2.3 overs.

Gujarat has already qualified for the next round. And so today's match is a completely unimportant match for Gujarat. On the other hand, RCB must win this match by any means. I think Bangalore will win the match today. Gujarat has given a target of only 189 runs today. If Kohli can play well, winning this match will be easy for Bangalore.

So close, yet so far.

To be honest, I never expected KKR to put up such an amazing chase. Especially after both their openers (Venkatesh Iyer and Abhijeet Tomar getting dismissed so cheaply). The KKR middle order was on fire and every one contributed. Nitish Rana, Shreyas Iyer and Sam Billings added quick runs. They lost the match because Andre Russell wasted so many deliveries and couldn't rotate the strike once Billings got out. Rinku Singh destroyed the LSG bowlers, but got out at the most crucial moment. 3 runs were needed from the last 2 balls, and it was achievable.

I never imagined that Kolkata would be able to score 208 runs. In the previous match against Lucknow, Kolkata probably lost all their wickets by 101 runs. So in this match, I thought Kolkata's innings would stop within 160 runs. But the performance of every batsman in Kolkata's middle order was impressive. However, I am happy with the defeat of Kolkata, because I bet on the victory of Lucknow.

KKR actually played really well and I don't think anyone expected this type of batting performance from them. I was really impressed by the batting of Quinton De Kock by the way. Scoring more than 150 runs in a t20 match is not easy at all. It was a really good batting performance from both teams. Absolutely a batting-friendly pitch. Well, now we can clearly say that KKR is not going to qualify through the next round.

And this shattered KKR dreams of reaching to next level. The highlight of match was batting of Quinton de Kock, he was dropped at very begging and he took full advantage of that drop catch. 100 runs of Quinton de Kock innings comes through 4s and 6s. KKR no doubt played well but we have only winner and that was LSG yesterday.
