Half-centuries from Virat Kohli and Devdutt Padikkal ensured a clinical victory for RCb on their return to the Chinnaswamy for the IPL 2026. The defending champions made light work of SRH's 203, chasing down the score with more than four overs to spare. Earlier, Jacob Duffy ran through the visitors top order, which they never recovered from.
Half-centuries from Virat Kohli and Devdutt Padikkal ensured a clinical victory for RCb on their return to the Chinnaswamy for the IPL 2026.

Earlier, Jacob Duffy ran through the visitors top order, which they never recovered from.
Rajat Patidar won the toss and opted to field first on cricket's return to Chinnaswamy Stadium on Saturday. The defending champions got off to the perfect start with Jacob Duffy striking within the powerplay to have the visitors reeling.
Ishan Kishan, playing his first match as captain, held the innings together with Heinrich Klaasen. Kishan smashed a stunning half-century to keep the run rate on par with the surface. Klaasen's controversial dismissal put spanner in SRH's efforts, with Kishan also later holding out in the deep.
SRH looked like getting bundled out but it was a stunning 43-run knock from Aniket Verma who took his franchise over the 200-mark.
