More about the win
Virat’s team inched closer to a maiden Indian Premier League title after Royal Challengers Bengaluru mauled Punjab Kings to register an eight-wicket win in the lopsided Qualifier 1 clash at the Maharaja Yadavindra Singh International Cricket Stadium, Mullanpur, Chandigarh, on Thursday and reach the final. This was RCB's fourth qualification for the final, and first in nine years.
Punjab Kings were folded for 101 runs in 14.1 overs. RCB reached the target in just 10 overs with opener Phil Salt, who made 56 not out, leading the charge. However, Punjab can still make the final if they can win the second qualifier against the winner of Friday's eliminator between Mumbai Indians and Gujarat Titans.
