Preview

Gautam Gambhir saw his side suffer a defeat at the hands of Royal Challengers Bangalore during their last trip to the southern part of India. After losing two early wickets, Rishabh Pant and Shreyas Iyer tried to steady the ship.

The Daredevils duo put on a 75 runs partnership before Iyer was dismissed by Washington Sundar for 52 runs. Pant went to score 85 runs that helped Delhi Daredevils to post a total of 174 runs in 20 overs.

In reply, Royal Challengers Bangalore also lost two early wickets. Virat Kohli and AB de Villiers's partnership in the middle played a crucial role in shaping up RCB's innings. The South African batsman's unbeaten knock of 90 off 39 balls made sure the Bangalore-based franchise sealed a victory.
