IPL 2022 Points Table, Orange Cap and Purple Cap: T Natarajan moves to the second spot -Updated after Match 36

The 36th match of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2022 took place between Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) and Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH). The Faf du Plessis-led side endured a humiliating 9-wicket defeat at the Brabourne Stadium.

After being sent in to bat first, RCB were put on the back foot by Marco Jansen right away. The left-arm pacer claimed three wickets in his first over, which included Virat Kohli's second successive golden duck. It was all downhill for the three-time finalists from there and they registered the fifth-lowest score in IPL history.

Chasing a mere 69 for victory, SRH openers Kane Williamson and Abhishek Sharma put up 64 for the first wicket. The Orange Army secured their fifth win on the trot with 12 overs to spare.
