Congratulations Toppers 🥳

RCB’s second win vs SRH in Hyderabad in eight attempts. RCB’s wins vs SRH in Hyderabad:

By 6 wickets (DLS), 2015 (Kohli: 44* off 19)

By eight wickets, today (Kohli: 100 off 63)

Faf: Amazing chase isn't it! That's my first reaction. Did feel walking off after first innings that it was a very good wicket. Felt 200 was a par score. Not many balls turned for the spinners. We're doing the right things from a batting perspective. In previous game we were also clinical with the ball. We complement each other really well (partnership with Kohli). We play in very different areas so it's difficult to bowl to. We're good mates on and off the field. We're going back to Chinnaswamy which will be an amazing game. A lot of fans coming in and another must-win for us.

Kohli, Player of the Match: Quite special considering the magnitude of the game. Thought SRH got a very good score. Ball was gripping as well. Faf's been on a different level. I've had a quiet couple of games. The way I was hitting in the nets wasn't transitioning into the middle. Never look at past records (not great numbers against SRH). I put myself under so much stress already. I don't care what anyone says on the outside. I've never been a guy who plays so many fancy shots. It's Test cricket after the IPL. have to stay true to my technique.I think it's the tattoos. It's been a beautiful transition for us coming together for RCB at the top and making an impact. Crowd here was amazing today as well. Told Faf as well. Just felt like it was a home game for us. They were cheering for us, taking my name as well.I feel you can't create this. I haven't forced anyone to support me. It's an amazing position to be in that you can provide happiness to so many people.

SRH finish their final match at home with a defeat. They've won just 1 game here all season and find themselves right at the bottom of the table. But they might yet have a say in this playoffs race as they go to Mumbai next. RCB don't need to worry about that right now, with their destiny in their own hands. And what a night it's going to be at the Chinnaswamy against table-toppers Gujarat Titans.That will also be the final league match of the season. If they had lost today, CSK and LSG would've qualified. But as it stands, the three playoffs spots are still up for grabs.
