Sports Desk. In the eliminator match of the Indian Premier League (IPL 2024), Rajasthan Royals (RR) defeated Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) by 4 wickets. In this way, once again the dream of Virat Kohli’s team to become the champion was shattered.
In this high voltage match played at Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad, RCB lost the toss and batted first and scored 172 runs. In reply, Rajasthan (RR) achieved the target by losing six wickets in 19 overs. Now on May 24, Rajasthan will face Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) in Qualifier-2. The final is to be played on 26 May.
In this way, the journey of Bangalore (RCB), who won six matches in a row, also ended. Along with this, once again their dream of becoming the champion was shattered. In the 17 seasons of IPL (IPL 2024) so far, the Bangalore (RCB) team has not won the title even once. Trying to defend the low score, RCB did very poor fielding at the beginning of the innings. Glenn Maxwell dropped a very easy catch, making it easier for Rajasthan to get the rhythm. Although the team fielded well as the innings progressed, it was too late by then.

Batting first proved to be detrimental for RCB. The pitch was very slow in the first innings, while dew came in the second innings, making it difficult for the bowlers to grip the ball and making batting easier for the Rajasthan (RR) batsmen. Now with these wins, Rajasthan’s team reached Qualifier-2. Now on May 24, Rajasthan will face Sunrisers Hyderabad in a knockout match. The team that wins that match will play against Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) in the final on May 26.
