RCB vs CSK highlights, IPL 2024: Bengaluru win thriller by 27 runs, qualify for playoffs

Indian Premier League 2024 Royal Challengers Bengaluru vs Chennai Super Kings highlights: Yash Dayal bowled clutch last over to defend 17 and took RCB to playoffs. They beat CSK by 27 runs eventually

Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) beat Chennai Super Kings (CSK) by 27 runs when they needed to win by at least 18 runs to reach the playoff of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024. This win at the M Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru will make RCB finish in fourth place in the points table and play the Eliminator. 

Needing 201 to reach the playoffs, Chennai lost wickets at the top and then had a fifty-partnership between Ajinkya Rahane and Rachin Ravindra. Later on, MS Dhoni and Ravindra Jadeja added 61 for the seventh wicket, but that was not enough as Yash Dayal Dhoni got out the second ball off the last over even after being hit for a 110-meter six off the first one. 

At that time 11 was needed off 4 to reach the playoffs for CSK. They could only make one more in those four balls. 

Earlier, RCB, after being asked to bat first, scored 218/5 in their 20 overs as Faf du Plessis hit a fifty and Virat Kohli, Rajat Patidar and Cameron Green made useful contributions. 

CSK skipper Ruturaj Gaikwad won the toss and decided to bowl first. 

Chennai named Mitchell Santner in the playing 11 in place of Moeen Ali has gone back to England for national duties. No changes in the RCB playing 11 but it is Glenn Maxwell who has replaced Will Jacks. Jacks has also gone back to England.

RCB vs CSK Live Score Updates: Bengaluru qualify for the playoffs

 

Over Summary: 6 W 0 1 0 0; Chennai Super Kings 191/7 after 20 overs

Ravindra Jadeja (42), Shardul Thakur (1); Yash Dayal 4-0-42-2

 

Swing and a miss!! Yash Dayal keeps RCB in the game as he bowls a dot ball to Shardul here. Now 11 needed off 3 to qualify. Just a single means that it is 10 needed off two to qualify for CSK. 

 

That is it then. There is a review for wide? Is there? No so it is dot ball and Yash Dayal is the winner here as now it is 10 off 1 ball and that can never be made. Jadeja had given up already and it was RCB who qualified for the playoffs. Six matches in a row is what they needed to win and they have won. It might be Ee Saala Cum Namdhu!! They win 27 runs and go to the playoffs.

RCB vs CSK Live Score Updates: Dhoni out, 11 needed off 4 for CSK to qualify

The extra fielder comes into the 30-meter circle and the MS Dhoni hits a six off the first ball. It is a 110-meter long six. Now 11 needed off 5 to qualify and Dhoni is out. That would have been six on any other day, but not today. Well, E sala Cup Namde?

11:57 PM

RCB vs CSK Live Score Updates: 17 needed off 6 for CSK to qualify

 

Over Summary: N 1 4 1 4 1 6; Chennai Super Kings 184/6 after 19 overs

Ravindra Jadeja (42), MS Dhoni (19); Lockie Ferguson 3-0-39-1

 

Just a single on the third ball. It means that seven have come off the first three balls. 

 

Four!! Dhoni gets one away here. Now it is 24 needed off 8 to qualify for the CSK. Swings again does Dhoni and is unable to get the connection right. Now 23 needed off 7. What will happen now? 

 

Six!! My word. Chennai are never out of the race no matter what. Until Jadeja and Dhoni are there, they will always be in the race. 17 needed off 6 for CSK to qualify with Dhoni on strike. 

 

11:53 PM

RCB vs CSK Live Score Updates: 29 needed off 10 for CSK to qualify

That was way too high again. Will this be the two-beamers and bowler out of the over thing? No, it was a slower beamer so just a free-hit. 

 

Free Hit!! Just a single here Dhoni misses out on the chance to get six off the first ball. 

 

Four!! But Jadeja says he will make the best of every opportunity as he hits a four and it is 29 off 10 balls to get to the playoffs for the Super Kings. 

 

11:50 PM

RCB vs CSK Live Score Updates: 35 needed off 12 for CSK to qualify

 

Over Summary: 6 2 0 4 1 Wd 1; Chennai Super Kings 166/6 after 18 overs

Ravindra Jadeja (31), MS Dhoni (13); Mohammed Siraj 4-0-35-1

 

Six!! First ball and length ball and Jadeja gives it the right treatment with a six over long-off. A short ball will bring a single here. Wait there is sloppy work from the fielder and they take two. 

 

Dot ball is the third one and the fourth is hit for a four. 12 off the first four balls. Two more to go, can he get the required five runs? Just a single and now 13 already off the over. The last went for a 13 as well. CSK needs to get a boundary off this one to try and make the most of the over.

 

Wide. Well, make it 14 off the over already. No need to take more risk here. Let's see what happens. Just a single would mean 15 off the over. 

 

11:43 PM

RCB vs CSK Live Score Updates: 50 needed off 18 for CSK to qualify

 

Over Summary: 6 0 1 4 1 1; Chennai Super Kings 151/6 after 17 overs

Ravindra Jadeja (18), MS Dhoni (12); Yash Dayal 3-0-35-1

 

Six!! Yash Dayal into the attack and the first ball has been hit for a six here. The target is now down to 56. Dot ball as this one was a length ball and came in with the angle. Single off the third ball now. With three to go, MS Dhoni is now at the strike. 

 

Four!! On the lags, it is bread and butter for MSD as he gets a four. Takes a single to bring up 150 for Chennai and also make it 12 off the over with a ball to come. 13 off the over and Chennai now needs 50 off the last three overs. 

 

11:38 PM

RCB vs CSK Live Score Updates: Last time-out of the match

 

Over Summary: 1 0 2 1 1 4; Chennai Super Kings 138/6 after 16 overs

Ravindra Jadeja (10), Mitchell Santner (7); Cameron Green 2-0-18-1

 

MS Dhoni hits a four and the equation for CSK is now to get 62 off the last four overs. Can they? We have a time-out to think through. 

 

11:33 PM

RCB vs CSK Live Score Updates: Stunner from Faf means Chennai are six down

 

Over Summary: 1 1 1 0 1 W; Chennai Super Kings 129/6 after 15 overs

Ravindra Jadeja (8), Mitchell Santner (3); Mohammed Siraj 3-0-20-1
 

Woah!! If there is an award for the best catch at the right moment, it is this one as Faf du Plessis went in the air at mid-on and took what is called a game-changing catch. 

 

11:25 PM

RCB vs CSK Live Score Updates: Green gets Dube, Chennai 5 down

 

Over Summary: 1 2 L1 W Wd 1 4; Chennai Super Kings 125/5 after 14 overs

Ravindra Jadeja (6), Mitchell Santner (1); Cameron Green 1-0-9-1

 

Though Dinesh Karthik dropped Jadeja, Cameron Green has managed to get rid of Dube, whose horrible stay at the wicket comes an end and Chennai are five down with 36 balls to go and 76 run to get ti qualify for the playoffs. 

 

11:22 PM

RCB vs CSK Live Score Updates: Rachin Ravindra run-out

 

Over Summary: 0 1 1 1 1 W1; Chennai Super Kings 115/4 after 13 overs

Rachin Ravindra (61), Shivam Dube (6); Glenn Maxwell 4-0-25-1

 

Ravindra misses out on a shot, hits one in the air but away from the fielder and then Siraj drops Dube. Still only four off the five balls from the over. Dube is batting on 6 off 13 balls and then he wanted to run two and Ravindra was left ball-watching instead of committing to the initial call he made and got run out. Chennai is coming down crumbling. 

 

11:14 PM

RCB vs CSK Live Score Updates: Fifty up for Ravindra, 100 for Chennai

 

Over Summary: 1 N4 6 6 1 0 0; Chennai Super Kings 110/3 after 12 overs

Rachin Ravindra (58), Shivam Dube (4); Lockie Ferguson 2-0-21-1

 

Four off no ball!! Well, well, this is a no-ball for height as the ball nearly hit Ravindra on the head on the full. Virat and Faf is complaining that the ball is difficult to grip and must be changed. Umopres say hold on and play along. 

 

Six!! Free hit and Ravindra goes bang to get a six and hit his maiden IPL fifty. What a time to get it. 

 

Six!! Woah!! Three balls and 18 off the over already as Ravindra hits a six again. 

 

Cutaway for a single by Ravindra now. Two dots played by Dube take away the momentum once again from CSK.
