Mohammad Siraj's heroics with the ball proved vital for RCB as the young bowler returned with bowling figures of 3/8 in his four overs. He also became the first bowler in IPL history to claim a double maiden. RCB won the match by 8 wickets after restricting KKR on 84/8 in their 20 overs.

With this win, they are currently in the 2nd position despite having equal points with DC, who have a better run rate than them. They have 14 points after 10 games with 7 wins and 3 defeats.
