POTM
What happened
Duffy's PP triple-strike left SRH 29/3. Kishan's 80(38) hauled them to 201. RCB dismantled chase in 15.4 overs — Padikkal 61(26), Kohli 69*.
Why it happened
Hard Hazlewood-length cramped both SRH openers into top-edges. Flat Chinnaswamy left SRH bowlers with zero margin. PP 76/1 made it academic.
What it means
RCB champions without imposter syndrome. Duffy debut raises questions about Hazlewood's spot. SRH exposed without Cummins. Kohli's 64th IPL fifty.
🔑 Key Overs — Where The Match Changed
Ov 1–5
29/3
Duffy triple-strike — Head (11), Abhishek (7), Reddy (1) all fall to hard back-of-length. SRH's innings in crisis before it started.
COLLAPSE
Ov 6
+16
Kishan counter-attacks Abhinandan Singh — 6,4,6 in three balls. SRH go from 29/3 to 45/3. Kishan refuses to surrender.
COUNTER
Ov 7–13
+81
Kishan–Klaasen 97-run stand for 4th wicket. The partnership rebuilds SRH from wreckage. Klaasen 31(22), Kishan accelerates to 50 off 31 balls.
REBUILD
Ov 19
+26
Aniket Verma blitz — 26 off 9 balls (3×4, 3×6) in ov 17–19. Pushes SRH past 200 from 174/8. Without this, SRH finish ~185.
BLITZ
Ov 7–8
+34
Padikkal counter-attack (RCB chase) — 34 off 10 balls including six over cover off Payne. PP ends 76/1. Chase effectively over.
BLITZ
Ov 12
163/4
Payne double-strike — Patidar (31) and Jitesh (0) fall in consecutive balls. Ov 12.2–12.3. Brief SRH hope. Kohli and David shut the door.

The Opening Statement
IPL 2026 began the way it often does — with a statement. Defending champions RCB walked onto a packed Chinnaswamy and didn't just win; they obliterated. A Jacob Duffy debut for the ages. Padikkal on 21 balls. Kohli's 64th fifty. The season is 1 match old and the defending champions have already told everyone: we are not here to defend, we're here to dominate.
The story is only beginning. 83 matches remain. But the first page is written in bold.
