IPL 2020: Ruturaj Gaikwad highlights CSK's win against RCB, as here are the records scripted

As the bottom-placed team Chennai Super Kings (CSK) beat the third-placed Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) in the points table, CSK rose to the seventh position. As CSK register an easy win of eight wickets, let’s just hog some light on the records scripted during the match.

The Green jersey for Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) chimed in with a bit of tough luck, as they lost their match against Chennai Super Kings (CSK) by eight wickets in Dubai. RCB players struggled both with the bat and the ball, which diverted the match towards CSK's win.

Match report: RCB won the toss and chose to bat first. The decision didn’t favour them, as they were off to a shaky start. It was skipper Virat Kohli and AB de Villiers, who provided the little buoyancy in between. With the wicket-to-wicket bowling from CSK bowlers, RCB struggled a bit and managed to aggregate only 145 runs at the end of their innings.

In return, CSK batsman took on RCB bowlers quite confidently. They were off to a decent start following, as the 67-run stand between Ambati Rayudu and Ruturaj Gaikwad gave them the push in the middle overs. Thus, CSK won the match convincingly by eight wickets.
