IPL 2021, SRH vs RCB Match 6 Highlights: Maxwell, Shahbaz shine as Bangalore win another thriller

Sunrisers Hyderabad take on Royal Challengers Bangalore in Match 6 of IPL 2021 at the M.A Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai on Wednesday (April 14).

Sunrisers Hyderabad clash with Royal Challengers Bangalore in Chennai

Chennai, April 14: Glenn Maxwell and a collecting bowling effort accompanied by a late collapse helped Royal Challengers Bangalore pull off a 6-run win against Sunrisers Hyderabad in Match 6 of IPL 2021 at the M.A. Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai on Wednesday (April 14).

Put into bat first, Maxwell hit a 41-ball 59 to lift RCB to a modest 149/8 in their allotted 20 overs. SRH bowlers, led by West Indian all-rounder Jason Holder (3/30) and star spinner Rashid Khan (2/18), put up superlative show and picked up wickets at regular intervals.

In response, SRH looked well on their way to complete their run chase after a fifty by their skipper David Warner, who shared a 83-run stand with Manish Pandey (38), but a collapse instigated by Shahbaz Ahmed in the 17th over meant RCB sealed another thriller in Chennai.

For RCB, Shahbaz was the pick of the bowlers with three wickets, while Harshal Patel and Mohammed Siraj also tagged along with two wickets each. In the end Rashid played a cameo for 17 off 9 balls, but it was too late as Sunrisers ran out of balls to complete the chase after the leg-spinner got run out in the final over.

Earlier, Maxwell was the top scorer, hitting five fours and three maximums with skipper Virat Kohli (33) Shahbaz Ahmed (14) and Kyle Jamieson (12) providing valuable contributions.
