Royal Challengers Bengaluru emerged victorious over Mumbai Indians by 12 runs in Match 20 of the ongoing edition of the Indian Premier League at the Wankhede Stadium on Monday, April 7. This marked RCB's third win of the season. 

RCB amassed 221 with the bat. A couple of 60s from Virat Kohli (67 off 42) and Rajat Patidar (64 off 32) after Phil Salt was sent back to the pavilion early on laid the foundation for Jitesh Sharma (40* off 19) to go all guns blazing at the end. Trent Boult and Hardik Pandya secured two-wicket hauls apiece. 

In reply, MI were completely out of the equation at the halfway stage. From the 13th over, Hardik and Tilak Varma fought it out and made a valiant effort for the home side to get as close to the target as possible. However, both of them were dismissed by Josh Hazlewood and Bhuvneshwar Kumar, respectively. Krunal's final over was when he defended 19 runs and picked up three wickets, finishing with four wickets to his name.
