Over 19. 9 runs. Bowler: Ayush Badoni. Royal Challengers Bengaluru: 230/4(rr 12.11)

SIX! Ayush Badoni to Jitesh Sharma. Quicker length ball, down leg side on the front foot slog sweeping, well timed in the air under control over deep backward square leg for 6 runs. Finished in style! Royal Challengers Bengaluru complete a thrilling run chase as they win by six wickets with 10 balls to spare, securing a top two finish. Openers Phil Salt and Virat Kohli provided a solid start during the powerplay before the momentum briefly shifted after the dismissal of Phil Salt. Will O'Rourke took wickets in consecutive balls, and when Kohli fell shortly after completing his half century, the match was in the balance. However, a crucial partnership between Mayank Agarwal and Jitesh Sharma turned the tide in Bengaluru's favour. Jitesh Sharma, in particular, played a match-winning knock, scoring a brilliant 85 off 33 balls and was well supported by Mayank, whose composure helped stabilize the innings during a tricky phase. Lucknow's bowlers couldn't contain the flow of runs, O'Rourke's four overs particularly expensive, conceding 74. Sharma provided the fireworks as they flew over the winning line, a victory that sets-up a clash with Punjab Kings in Qualifier 1 on Thursday. Jitesh Sharma is the Player of the Match.
