RCB vs SRH Highlights, IPL 2025: Sunrisers Hyderabad defeated Royal Challengers Bengaluru by 42 runs in Lucknow.

RCB vs SRH Highlights, IPL 2025: Royal Challengers Bengaluru squandered a golden chance to finish inside the top two of the IPL 2025 points table, going down to Ishan Kishan-fuelled Sunrisers Hyderabad by 42 runs in Lucknow on Friday. As a result of this heavy defeat, Royal Challengers (17 points) have slid down to third on the table behind Gujarat Titans (18) and Punjab Kings (17). The Net Run Rate (NRR) also took a significant beating. Once they were asked to chase an imposing 232, which the SRH set after Kishan made a stunning unbeaten 94 off 48 balls, RCB required some calculated assault on the target. They mounted it through Phil Salt (62 off 32), Virat Kohli (43 off 25) and Jitesh Sharma (24 off 15), but could only amass 189 before getting bundled out, and it was RCB’s first defeat away from home this season.
