Result – Rajasthan Royals won by 59 runs

Superb 103 not out by Rahane and 4 wickets by Siddharth Trivedi helped Rajasthan Royals Beat Royal Challengers Bangalore by 59 runs.

Earlier, Rajasthan Royals won the toss and decided to bat first. R Dravid and A Rahane gave them a super start with 62 run first wicket partnership. Rahul Dravid got out after scoring 25 off 32 balls but A Rahane was the star for Rajasthan Royals today as he scored a brilliant 103 off just 60 balls which included 12 fours and 5 sixes. Rahane created an IPL record of six consecutive fours in the 14th over. His partner Owais Shah also smashed Banglore bowlers as he completed his half-century off just 19 balls. Some very big overs in the innings propelled Rajasthan Royals to a handsome total of 195/2 in 20 overs.

Chasing 196 to win, RCB needed a flying start and the duo of M Agarwal and C Gayle added 42 runs for the first wicket partnership in 4.4 overs. M Agarwal got out after scoring 34 off 21 balls but Gayle failed to impress as he was out after scoring just 8.The 5th over from Pankaj Singh changed the tide towards Rajasthan Royals favor as both openers got out in the same over. From 42/0 in 4 overs, RCB were 42/2 in 5 overs. V Kohli and AB de Villiers had huge responsibility on their shoulders but AB de Villiers was the bowled by Siddharth Trivedi and RCB were reduced to 69/3 in 8.4 overs. Needing another 125 to win from 11 overs, RCB had a real tough task in hand and the team was hoping on Virat Kohli and S Tiwary but Siddharth Trivedi bowled Virat Kohli when the team score was 78. Tiwary and M Kaif then took the team score past 100 but Siddharth Trivedi struck twice in the 15th over and left RCB at 103/6 in 14.4 overs. With two quick wickets, victory looked a distant dream and finally RCB were all out for 136 runs in 19.5 overs thereby losing the match by 59 runs.

Venue – Eden Gardens, Kolkata
Toss – Kolkata Knight Riders elected to bowl first
Result – Kings XI Punjab won by 2 runs

Today in the 17th match of DLF IPL 2012, Kolkata Knight Riders won the toss and elected to bowl first at the hot and sweaty condition of Eden Gardens. Kolkata replaced injured Balaji by Jayadev Unadkat and Punjab dropped out of form Paul Valthaty and Parvinder Awana to include Paras Dogra and Bhargav Bhatt. Kolkata got the big wicket of Gilchrist when the team score was just 17. Soon the star batsmen Shaun Marsh also got out. Both the big names of Kings XI Punjab were back in pavilion when the team score was just 21. Narine taking both the wickets gave the best bowling start possible to KKR. Punjab needed a solid partnership to stabilize the innings, Mandeep Singh and D Hussey both played sensibly to take the team score past 50 and just when it looked that the duo is set for a big score, Hasan got the wicket of Mandeep and soon Hussey also got run out due to a terrible mix up. KXIP were struggling at 85/4 in 14.1 overs and needed some good hitting to get a reasonable total. But wickets kept falling regularly and Kolkata Knight Riders bowlers never allowed easy runs to Kings XI Punjab batsmen. Finally Kings XI Punjab managed to score 19 runs in the 19th over and post a total of 134/9 runs in 20 overs. S Narine was the star for Kolkata Knight Riders as he got 5 wickets for just 19 runs in his 4 overs.

Chasing 135 to win, KKR lost Kallis when the team score was just 13. Captain Gambhir was also out cheaply leaving KKR struggling at 30/2 in 3.4 overs. Manoj Tiwary and M Bisla then played sensibly and took the team to 74 before Tiwary got out. KKR were comfortably placed at 74/3 in 11.2 overs before Kings XI Punjab bowler P Chawla turned the match. He got three quick wickets leaving KKR struggling at 88/6 in 14.4 overs. Needing 36 to win from last 4 overs, the match was going for an exciting finish but superb hitting by D Das ( 35 runs off 23 balls) took the match to the last over finish. Finally it was Punjab who holded on to the nerves and won the match by 2 runs in a thrilling finish.
