IPL8 – Royal Challengers drubbed in home ground, had no answer to Sun Risers

#IPL8 #RCBvsSRH #ChinnaswamyStadium #TrentBoult #chrisgayle This match did not go own to the wire, neither did it have a nail biting finish – it finished in the 18th over. It was a case of abject surrender of Royal Challengers Bangalore to Sun Risers Hyderabad in their IPL8 encounter at the Chinnaswamy Stadium, Bangalore. Or - was it a case of over confidence of the Royal Challengers?
This has been reported in timesofindia.indiatimes.com dated 14 April 2015.

Winning the toss, Sun Risers Hyderabad opted to field first and the Royal Challengers Bangalore began batting with two stalwarts Virat Kohli and Chris Gayle but, neither could fire as they would have desired.
AB de Villiers hit a useful 28-ball 46 while Virat Kohli chipped in with a 37-ball 41 and Chris Gayle scored a 16-ball 21 as RCB folded up with a score of just 166 runs which was not enough.
Trent Boult of SRH picked up three wickets in the last but one over and Bhuvneshwar Kumar picked up two wickets in the last over.
Sun Risers Hyderabad chased down the 167-run target quite easily in 17.2 overs with Warner slamming a 27-ball 57-run knock that was studded with six fours and four sixes.
