4th Wicket - 132 AB de Villiers and Yuvraj Singh (RCB vs Rajasthan Royals)

After winning the toss against the Rajasthan Royals, RCB elected to bat first. After quickly losing the wicket of Kohli and Gayle, RCB found themselves in trouble at 40/3 in 8.1 overs. It was now all up to the middle-order to save RCB from imploding. Luckily for them, AB de Villiers (58 runs from 32 balls) and Yuvraj Singh (83 runs from 38 balls) showed up in good form and put on an amazing partnership of 132 runs to help their team reach a total of 190/5 in 20 overs.

In response to RCB’s total, RR were struggling at 106/5 after getting off to a good start. Yuvraj Singh was the pick of the bowlers with 35/4 in his 4 overs. However, he couldn’t save his team from defeat as Steve Smith (48*) and James Faulkner (41*) helped Rajasthan Royals over the finish line.

According to him, The Tribal Chief needed the victory more than Brock Lesnar, as the latter was already an established performer when he defeated ‘Taker.
