A fine and disciplined bowling display by the Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) helped them to eke out a 14-run win against Mumbai Indians (MI) at the M. Chinnaswamy Stadium here on Tuesday.
Virat Kohli led RCB lost the toss and were asked to bat by MI.
RCB posted a total of 167 in 20 overs while MI were restricted to 153-7.
With a win over MI, RCB halted their two-match losing streak and the result took them to fifth position in the eight-team standings.
With this result, the defending champions MI have only two wins from 8 matches.
As Mumbai Indians emerged on the losing end, they will now have to win virtually every remaining game to have any chance of making it to the play-offs of the 2018 Indian Premier League (IPL).
Today, Delhi Daredevils will take on Rajasthan Royals at Feroz Shah Kotla Ground, Delhi.
