IPL 2018, CSK vs RCB: 5 reasons why Bangalore lost 

#4 RCB sloppy in the field

Defending a paltry score of 127 against a formidable Chennai lineup, it was essential for RCB to come good in both the other departments in the field. A track that lives with a reputation of witnessing low score being defended here was a certain chance with RCB bowlers hitting good lengths in the first six.

However, they didn’t sound like a good fielding side with a lot too many mistakes committed in the second innings. There were occasions when fielders coasting the boundary region dropped dollies and gave the batsmen a chance to explode later on. They even missed the crucial run-out of Suresh Raina and were short in many instances to go for the catch.
