Tim David smashed 30 runs in the 19th over as RCB set a record 250/3, the highest IPL total against CSK.

  • Royal Challengers Bengaluru posted 250/3 against Chennai Super Kings on Sunday at M Chinnaswamy Stadium, setting the highest-ever Indian Premier League total against the five-time champions.
  • CSK captain Ruturaj Gaikwad won the toss and opted to bowl first, but RCB began cautiously before accelerating their scoring rate through the middle overs.
  • Devdutt Padikkal anchored the middle overs with 50 off 29 balls, his second consecutive fifty of the season, before falling in the 15th over while attempting a lap shot.
  • Tim David and skipper Rajat Patidar then unleashed a brutal 99-run partnership off 35 balls, with David smashing 30 runs off Jamie Overton in the 19th over, including a 106m maximum into Cubbon Park.
  • The pitch eased out as the game progressed, contributing to the record total and leaving CSK with an uphill mountain to climb in their chase.
