Glenn Maxwell, Karn Sharma, and Cameron Environmentally Friendly, who were all back, were all hit for big sixes. Sudharsan made up for his slow start as the two Tamil Nadu players put on a show.

PowerPlay
RCB needed a powerplay with a lot of boundaries, and they got one because Kohli and Faf du Plessis both got off to great starts. Du Plessis was very serious about his method and quickly got to 23 off of 9 runs. The Titans then had to bring Sai Kishore into the attack to get rid of the RCB captain. But Kohli, first tackled Rashid Khan and then hit Sai Kishore for back-to-back sixes to end the powerplay on a good note.

Jacks with a 6 and a 4 off of Mohit Sharma. After that, he broke a 6 off of Sai Kishore and Noor Ahmed to get himself set up.

Jacks went after Mohit again and hit three sixes in an over that saw the fast bowler get 29. In the next over, Jacks went 6,6,4,6 to get to 94 in a stunning way.
Furthermore, even Rashid couldn’t stop the damage. To win the game, RCB needed one more over, and Jacks had one more hit at Rashid after the break to not only end the game but also strike 100. With his 10th big hit, which shocked the home team, he did it in style.
