Royal Challengers Bengaluru finally ended their home ground losing streak with a thrilling 11-run win over Rajasthan Royals in IPL 2025 at M Chinnaswamy Stadium. Batting first, RCB posted a formidable 205/5, powered by fifties from Virat Kohli (70 off 42) and Devdutt Padikkal (50 off 27), who added a 95-run partnership. Despite Rajasthan's strong chase, led by Jos Buttler, RCB's bowlers held their nerve. Josh Hazlewood starred with figures of 4/33, while Krunal Pandya chipped in with 2/31. This marked RCB’s first home victory of the season, breaking their three-match losing streak at the venue. (PC: BCCI)
