Despite a late blitzkrieg from Dhruv Jurel, it was not enough for Rajasthan Royals to clinch a win as century stand between captain Faf du Plessis and Glenn Maxwell set up a thrilling seven-run win for the Royal Challengers Bangalore in their Indian Premier League 2023 match in Bengaluru on Sunday. Put in to bat, Glenn Maxwell (77 off 44 balls) and Faf du Plessis (62 off 39 balls) shared 127 runs for the third wicket from only 66 deliveries to power RCB to 189 for 9 in 20 overs. Devdutt Padikkal (52 off 34 balls) struck his maiden fifty of the season and Yashasvi Jaiswal made 47 for a 98-run partnership for the second wicket but the Royals were lagging behind in the run chase before gaining momentum in the last five overs. Jurel's cameo of 34 not out off just 16 balls (2x4; 2x6) was not enough for the Royals as they fell short by seven runs in the end, reaching to 182 for 6 in 20 overs.
