Royal Challengers Bangalore lost the toss and then were asked to bat first. Wicket falling was a regular phenomenon starting from the very first over. Dravid got out for 0 and then Chanderpaul, Kallis, Kohli and others also fell cheaply. It was not the start which they had expected and it looked like half the battle is lost when they lost 7 wickets for 90 runs.Praveen Kumar played some good shots and Taylor and Praveen scored 44 and 34 respectively.The bowlers of Rajasthan Royals never let the batsmen score easy runs and were complemented well by the fielders. In the end it was a score of mere 136 to be chased by Rajasthan Royals to have a second straight win in the DLF – IPL.
