Royal Challengers Bengaluru stay 2nd after defeat to Sunrisers Hyderabad

IPL 2025 Points Table After IPL Today Match Update: Sunrisers Hyderabad on Friday blew the race to finish top 2 wide open as they defeated Royal Challengers Bengaluru at the Ekana on  Friday. Virat Kohli and Phil Salt got RCB off to a blering start but after they fell, Bengaluru’s wickets also came tumbling, ultimately getting bundled out for 189 runs, losing 42 runs.
Earlier, Sunrisers Hyderabad posted a competitive 231 for 6, riding on Ishan Kishan’s 48-ball unbeaten 94. Apart from Kishan, left-handed opener Abhishek Sharma smashed 17-ball 34 with almost all the RCB bowlers being among the wickets. Kishan hit seven fours and five sixes. For RCB, Romario Shepherd took 2 for 14.
Gujarat Titans’ lost to the Lucknow Super Giants 33 runs. Mitchell Marsh’s sensational maiden IPL century, along with a blering half-century from Nicholas Pooran, helped LSG set a mammoth target of 236 form GT to chase. While GT’s high-power top order faltered, Shahrukh Khan and Sherfane Rutherford went berzerk and for a while, it looked like GT might actually chase the big total down. However, GT then lost wickets in a clump in the death overs and thus fell well short. While GT have already qualified for the playoffs, their chances of finishing in the top two has taken a serious blow with this defeat.
