RCB Claims 9-Wicket Victory Over RR in IPL 2025

In a commanding performance at the Sawai Mansingh Stadium, Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) defeated Rajasthan Royals by nine wickets in IPL 2025. Phil Salt's explosive innings of 65 runs off 33 balls and Virat Kohli's unbeaten 62 off 45 helped RCB chase down a target of 174 with 15 balls to spare. The duo formed a strong opening partnership of 92 runs, while Devdutt Padikkal contributed 40 not out, solidifying RCB's position in the tournament. Rajasthan's Yashasvi Jaiswal scored a notable 75 runs, but his team's overall performance was hampered by several dropped catches. This victory propelled RCB to third place in the league standings, while Rajasthan remains in seventh. RCB will aim to maintain their momentum in their upcoming match against Punjab Kings.
