Royal Challengers Bangalore win by 10 wickets with as many as 56 balls to spare. Its the 3rd 10-wicket win for a team in the IPL. Well an ordinary soft batting show from Rajasthan Royals, they have always been vulnerable with the bat since the 1st edition and the trend continues. RCB was red hot, Steyn with his 150 kmph speeds and Praveen clinching a superb hat-trick to set up a cakewalk win.
