Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) finished their dismal run in the ongoing Indian Premier League (IPL) with a win over Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) at the M. Chinnaswamy Stadium. Bangalore spoiled the party of Hyderabad; however, it was all fun after the game as Virat Kohli mocked Khaleel Ahmed as everybody burst out into heavy laughter.

Batting first, Sunrisers Hyderabad managed to post 175 runs banking on skipper Kane Williamson half-century. Williamson chipped in with an unbeaten 70 off 43 deliveries, and significant contributions from Martin Guptill and Vijay Shankar helped them cross 150-run mark despite a collapse in the lower middle order.

Chasing 176 runs, Royal Challengers Bangalore lost their first three wickets within the three overs. Their top-three run-getters – Parthiv Patel, Virat Kohli, and AB de Villiers were already back in the hut, and they were staring at another defeat. Meanwhile, young fast bowler Khaleel Ahmed seemed pumped up. They Hyderabad fast bowler pitched it short and wide as Kohli looked to slash it off over the infield only to edge it. Wriddhiman Saha did the rest as Khaleel redeemed himself after an expensive last over.
