The encounter between the two big-guns in a do or die situation started off with RCB winning the first contest- the toss. Virat Kohli, with his team loaded up on all sorts of ammunition and firepower with the bat, decided to bat first on a pitch which had a touch of grass on it.



RCB shone in all departments to complete a memorable over the team from Rajasthan. After winning the toss and deciding to bat first, the Challengers posted an impressive 180/4 on the board with excellent innings by AB and Mandeep. The bowling attack completed the domination, dismissing RR for a scanty 109 to win the all important Eliminator by 71 runs.
