At one stage, Royals were cruising towards victory before Jasprit Bumrah and Mustafizur Rahman showed their class in death overs bowling. The two comparatively experienced campaigners were undone by yet another young talent in Krishnappa Gowtham who proved to be too good for both of them.

Gowtham smacked 33 of just 11 deliveries to see his side over the line in a nail-biting thriller. It was his last over heroics and the self-belief showed in his ability to hit a boundary despite playing a dot ball in the previous delivery.

This was evident when he refused a single in the final over to finish things off in style through a mighty hit over the mid-wicket region, helping his side earn two crucial points.
