Punjab Kings seemed to be in command after restricting RCB to 190 for 9 in their allotted 20 overs. But when Punjab Kings batted, they lost wickets at regular intervals and couldn't maintain the required run rate. Shashank Singh attempted the chase by scoring unbeaten 61 of just 30 deliveries, but Punjab Kings ended up short by 6 runs. Rajat Patidar-led Royal Challengers proved strong and broke their 18-year drought for the IPL trophy.
