IPL 2022, RCB vs CSK: Royal Challengers Bangalore back in top 4 after beating Chennai Super Kings
Kohli consumed 33 balls to put together 30 runs and then played a role in Glenn Maxwell's run out to slow down RCB's innings. On this day, however, Kohli wouldn't have been bothered about all the talk over his form as RCB returned to winning ways with an impressive bowling performance. RCB's Mahipal Lomror also showed class and composure during his 27-ball 42 (3x4; 2x6). AS IT HAPPENED | SCORECARD | POINTS TABLELomror and Karthik took RCB to 173/8 at the MCA stadium in Pune. On a pitch which offered good spin and bounce, pacer Josh Hazlewood (1/19), Maxwell (2/22) and Harshal Patel (3/35) then came up with the goods to break the team's three-match losing streak as RCB prevailed by 13 runs. CSK openers Ruturaj Gaikwad (28) and Devon Conway (56) looked to recreate the magic of their previous outing against Sunrisers Hyderabad, in which they shared a 182-run association. While Shahbaz Ahmed halted Gaikwad's run, Maxwell tilted the scales in RCB's favour by sending back danger men Robin Uthappa and Ambati Rayudu in quick succession.
