CSK finished at 211/5 after 20 overs while chasing a 214-run target. Romario Shepherd was adjudged the Player of the Match. His explosive 53*-run knock in 14 balls gave the home team some much-needed impetus in the death overs.

Openers Virat Kohli and Jacob Bethell also notched up fine half-centuries for Bengaluru, scoring 62 (33 balls) and 55 (33 balls), respectively. Chennai looked to be cruising at one stage, courtesy of 17-year-old Ayush Mhatre.

While Mhatre ended up with 94 runs off 48 balls, Ravindra Jadeja remained unbeaten on 77 runs in 45 balls.

It is worth mentioning that Dayal erred by dishing out a waist-high no-ball in the final over which was dispatched for a six by Shivam Dube. However, he redeemed himself by ultimately taking his team home.

Patidar concluded by saying that the side would celebrate the crucial win with a small party. He said:

"The pulse rate is good now. It was a tight game but credit goes to the batters. The way the bowlers showed the courage was great. Yash Dayal is a death specialist so it was a clear cut thought of giving him the ball in the final over. Yeah I had confidence in Suyash also, till now he has bowled good overs for us. That decision was 50-50 at that moment but I backed my bowler.

"Romario has the power to hit the sixes. I just enjoyed those sixes from the dugout. Lungi is an experienced bowler, he has bowled white ball cricket for national team and I have confidence in him. We are not aiming for qualification it's all about playing well in the last three matches. Just a bit of a party maybe but not much."

The favorable result against CSK took RCB to the top of the IPL 2025 points table. They have eight wins from 11 outings at this juncture.
