'Iss sher ka dil bada hai': Sidhu hails Kohli
The defeat in Eliminator ended RCB's incredible six-game winning streak. With a solitary win in the first 8 matches, RCB made a remarkable turnaround, winning their last 6 matches to clinch a playoffs spot. In the Eliminator, after Royals did their part well to keep RCB to 172 for 8, batters stuttered in the middle overs to allow RCB back into the contest which remained hung in balance for the majority of the second half, but the 2008 winners eventually got home with an over to spare.
